Vessel #1 was leaving her slip at Crow's Nest Marina.  Vessel #1 backed out and attempted to pull forward impacting 2 nearby moored vessels.  Vessel #1 port side swim step impacted the transom on sailboat (WN 2783 JF) causing damage extending into the fiberglass.  Vessel # 1 continued forward striking an inflatable tender mounted on the stern of another moored vessel (WN 5189 RB).  The impact (possibly from the anchor/pulpit) punctured the tube on the tender.  The outboard kicker motor was also damaged.  Vessel #1 continued out of the marina and struck 3 other docked vessels at Sunnfjord Boats, 5420 Marine View Drive.  The impact causedminor rub damage to documented vessels O'Ryan IV, Royal Chinook, and a catamaran style boat.  Vessel #1 continued on without leaving any information or contacting anyone.  Witness  stated that he observed the accident was able to identify the operator as she was a tenant at Crow's Nest Marina.  the manager of the marina stated the operator was subject 1, ans she was asked to leave the marina.  On 5-1-09 I was able to contact her at Foss waterway Marina.  she admitted to the accident and blamed it on the low tide, wind, loose steering, and sticky throttle.  she state she had not been drinking.  She realized that she erred whe she did not contact anyone.  She further added that although the boat is hers, her boyfirend usually operates it.

PFD's were not used.  All vessels impacted did not have any persons onboard.  Minor damage on the documented vessels so they were not included in this report.
