VESSEL A WAS GOING DOWN GUMLOG CREEK. VESSEL B (PWC) WAS AT THE END OF A POINT IDLING AROUND. THE OPERATOR OF VESSEL B WAS LOOKING DOWN THE CREEK TOWARD A FRIEND WHO WAS COMING UP THE CREEK ON ANOTHER PWC. WHILE LOOKING DOWN THE CREEK TO HIS RIGHT, THE OPERATOR OF VESSEL B MADE A QUICK, SHARP TURN TO HIS LEFT WITHOUT LOOKING TO SEE IF ANY OTHER BOATS WERE COMING. WHEN HE DID HE TURNED DIRECTLY INTO THE STARBOARD HULL OF VESSEL A NEAR THE STERN, BREAKING OUT A PIECE OF THE HULL APPROX. TWO FEET LONG AND EIGHT INCHES DEEP. THE OPERATOR OF VESSEL A WAS ABLE TO GET THE VESSEL TO THE NEAREST SHORE.
THE OPERATOR OF VESSEL B, STATED THAT HE WAS LOOKING AT THE OTHER PWC AND NOT PAYING ATTENTION TO HIS SURROUNDINGS WHEN HE TURNED AND CRASHED INTO VESSEL A.
