RedactedNarrative: On October 15th, 2022 at approximately 1700 hours, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commision (FWC) responded to a boating incident involving two airboats on Gardner Marsh in Osceola County, Florida. Upon arrival V2 was being towed into Joe Overstreet Boat Ramp. V1 was unable to be located. After obtaining statements from individuals nearby the crash I identified the owner of V1. V1 and V2 came around a blind turn in Gardner Marsh and struck each other head on. V1 and V2 did not have time to make an evasive maneuver. Based on the evidence and information gathered to date, I have concluded that both operators violated navigation rules contributing to the accident. Both vessels were operating at excessive speed for the prevailing conditions and failed to have a proper lookout. V1 airboat did not have a proper airboat flag. The flag was much smaller than legal size and was bunched up. It is unknown if OP1 had the proper flag that OP2 would have seen him prior to impact.  Based on statements gathered, I was able to determine that OP1 left the scene of the accident without providing OP2 his information. OP1 also failed to report the accident to law enforcement by the quickest means possible. Chagres were filed with the state attorney’s office for both violations. OP1 was also issued a citation for an improper airboat flag. ; OP1:Punctured lung and broken rib.; OP2:Leg laceration requiring stiches. Head injury.
