A pleasure craft was heading downstream in the navigation channel of the river.  Two pwc's were heading upriver between the shoreline and the channel.  One pwc suddenly turned towards and into the right side of the pleasure boat.  The pleasure boat sank in less than one minute.  No injuries occured.  The pwc operator did not wait for authorities to arrive and left.  He abandoned the pwc at a marina upriver and eventually turned himself in.  He was arrested for OUI and leaving the scene of a boating accident.
