Vessel 1 was traveling east with one person being towed on an innertube behind Vessel 1 when the Operator of Vessel 1 realized that he was headed directly head-on to Vessel 2 (travelling west).  Vessel 1 turned to port in order to avoid collision with Vessel 2, while Vessel 2 turned to starboard to avoid collision with Vessel 1.  The Operator of Vessel 2 did not see the tuber being pulled behind Vessel 1, who, due to the port turn by Vessel 1 was swung into the path of Vessel 2.  The Tuber/Victim subsequently struck the bow on the port side of Vessel 2, knocking him unconscious and leaving him floating face-down in the water.  Several Occupants from Vessel 1 and one Occupant from Vessel 2 jumped into the water to assist the Victim; they were then able to turn the Victim face-up and get him back on board Vessel 1 at which time he was transported to Captain Woody's where emergency services were waiting to transport/treat the Victim.

Following the incident, the Operators requested lawyers and would not provide experience or education details.
