On 4/4/10, i was patrolling the trent river, at approximately 3:30pm i came across a vessel names nauti dogs ii.  There were 2 males on board.  I followed the nauti dogs ii down stream at approximately 300 feet.  I saw the nauti dogs ii come down off plane in front of a dock.  There was vessel named truffle toed to the dock.  One male and one female standing on the dock.  The male said something to nauti dogs ii occupant as he passed and the female on the dock was taking a picture of the nauti dogs ii.  Before the nauti dogs ii completly passed, operator of nauti dogs ii increased his speed and came back on plane.  As i passed the dock dock person called out to me and motioned me to the dock.  There he told me that a few minutes earlier when the nauti dogs ii had been traveling up stream, that the vessel had caused a wake that damaged his vessel (truffle).  I could clearly see damage to the bow of truffle.  I got contact information from the owner, then i continued down stream to find the nauti dogs ii.  I found the nauti dogs ii at operator’s home.  There operator showed me his vessel documentation.  I asked operator what had happened up stream.  He told me that he was well away from the vessel truffle and that damaged vessel owner’s vessel must not have been secured very well.  I got operator’s information and exchanged both parties' contact information.  I also called sgt and informed him of the accident.
