       On this date, I was detailed to Upper Township, Corsen's Inlet reference a boating accident. The report was for a vessel that struck channel marker 308 and that there was possible injuries. Upon arrival to the area, I observed a 21' vessel identified as a 2009 Monaray Bowrider bearing NJ registration with heavy damage to the bow. It should be noted that there was nine (9) occupants on board and 4 occupants complained of pain and had visible injuries. 
  
  Operator 1 Stated to the effect: I was driving and lost my steering. I was unable to stop before striking the channel marker. 
  
  I then had the 4 occupants with injuries board my vessel to be transported to the Corsen's Inlet boat ramp to be evaluated by awaiting EMS. 
  
  Investigation Revealed: Operator 1 was traveling S/B in the ICW approaching marker 308. Vessel # 1 subsequently failed to make an evasive maneuver before striking channel marker 308 with it's bow causing extensive damage and injuries to the occupants. 
  
  At this Point, US Coast Guard Cape May & Atlantic City, Ocean City EMS and TowBoatUs arrived on scene to assist with the remaining five occupants. I then transported the above mentioned occupants to Corsen's Inlet boat ramp to meet Ocean City EMS to be evaluated.  All four occupants were transported to Shore Memorial hospital for further evaluation. 
  
  The vessel and the remaining 5 occupants were towed to All Season's Marina located in 551 Roosevelt Blvd, Marmora by Shamrock Marine Towing. The remaining occupants had only complaints of pain and refused medical treatment. US Coast guard performed a post boarding inspection at All Season's Marina are results are pending.
