RedactedNarrative: On the date and approximate time stated, Vessel #1 was docked at Turner Marine on Dog River.  Vessel #2 was maneuvering to the dock in Turner Marine across from Pier #2 West.  The stern / ladder of Vessel #2 struck the port side of Vessel #1 causing substantial damage to Vessel #1.  Damage included the port gunwale, 2 to 3 feet down the port side of the hull, life lines and stanchions on the port side, stress cracks on the port side near the area of impact, damage on the starboard side when Vessel #1 impacted the finger pier (on the starboard side) due to the initial impact from Vessel #2 on the port side.  Vessel #2 sustained damage to the ladder on the stern.  Vessel #1 was to be removed from the water at Turner Marine for further inspection and repair estimates.  The operator of Vessel #2 (resides in both Texas and Florida) completed a operator/witness statement and mailed it to Alabama Marine Patrol Headquarters (Southern Division).
