Owner of Vessel #1 contacted the station to report a boating accident.  He reported that on Sunday he was sleeping on his vessel which was anchored in Silver Bay. He heard a loud bang coming from the stern  of vessel #1.  He ran on deck but didn't see anything so he ran to the bow. He observed a small vessel circling his vessel at a high rate of speed. The vessel continued to circle his vessel and ran over his anchor line severing.   The owner of vessel #1 then started his engines and followed vessel #2  west and saw it turn into a lagoon.  He was unable to follow due to shallow water. The next day he traveled to the area by vehicle and located the vessel he had chased the night before. 

He described the  vessel as about 22 feet long cutty cabin with a gray Mariner outboard. 

Investigation revealed: Vessel #1 was anchored in Silver Bay just off  Cattus Island Park, when vessel #2 impacted the swim platform at the stern of vessel #1. Vessel #2 continued circling  vessel #1 untill it severed the anchor line of vessel #1, sending it adrift. Vessel #2 then left the scene.
