RedactedNarrative: Taken from operator statement. 
  
  I was monitoring my chart plotter expecting to see the north wall and the channel and avoid the wall. I never saw the wall on the chart plotter. 
  
  I was scanning for the red beacon that is positioned about 50 feet inside the end of the channel. There was quite a bit of light clutter on the south side of the channel, but trees block the light from the shore on the north side of the channel. 
  
  I never saw the red beacon marking the channel. I was also watching the other boats to my starboard, and that was certainly a distraction. I turned the wheel hard to starboard and felt the grounding, a moment later I saw the north wall, the wheel was already hard to starboard and I contacted the corner of the wall with the port bow. The wall contacted the boat about 8 feet from the bow just below the rub rail and then again for about 20 feet on the port side.
