RedactedNarrative: From Vessel 1 Operator Report:  Was sitting at the dock letting the boat run from being the first time out this season.  There were 5 other openings at the dock for other boats to pull into while I was getting everything safe and secured.  After getting everything ready, I backed away from the dock and headed out of the harbor going in the southwest direction.  While heading out there was a log on the starboard side of the boat that I was avoiding to not cause any damage to my boat.  As I was driving through the harbor there was another boat sitting off to the side and as I continued straight making no turns, he then kicked his boat into gear and purposely hit me.  His boat was 15’ away from me when I first started to go out; but he put his in gear and purposely swing the rear of his boat into mine for no apparent reason.  He used his steel rub rail to turn directly into by boat and cause the damage he did.  The male who hit me then took off with this boat onto the trailer and left the harbor as he knew what he did was unlawful and would result in consequences.
  
  Vessel 2 Operator Report:  Was waiting to load the boat on trailer.  I was sitting still and was waiting for my friend to back trailer into the water so I could load my boat.  While I was sitting there, a large white cigar boat was backing into the water and stopped.  The person driving that boat got into it and started to rev up the engines.  He just sat there revving the engines up and was having trouble keeping it running.  It looked like the one engine was not running properly.  The engines were terribly loud while he was revving them up.  He then backed the boat off his trailer and engine stopped again and he just drifted for a little bit until he got engines started.  He started to back up then put boat into forward gear and had trouble controlling boat.  He started to go towards other side of launch area then turned and started coming right at me.  I thought he was looking right at me but he kept moving towards me.  I saw he was going to hit me so I put my boat in gear to try and avoid a direct hit in side of my boat.  I turned boat away from him but he still hit me in the back of my boat with the front side of his boat.  I asked him what he was doing and he yelled at me as if it was my fault we hit, which was not the case.  He then proceeded out of the launch area and took off very fast once out on the lake.  The extent of damage to my boat was a scuff on the vinyl bumper rail on back left corner of my boat.  
  
  No officer investigation was completed as the reports were submitted well after the date of the incident.
