RedactedNarrative: Juvenile*
  V1 was traveling west on lake Rousseau in a congested area operating around a tight curve with myrtle trees and stumps on both sides of the 20 foot wide section of the lake.  V1 is a 14 foot jon boat with a 40hp motor on it.  V1 was operating at full throttle approximately 15 to 20 MPH when V2 which was traveling east in the same section of the lake came around the corner.  V2 was also on a plane operating at approximately 30 to 40 MPH.  Because of V2 speed the vessel began to drift toward V1. 
  
   V2 saw V1 and attempted to correct by turning right away from V1.  V1 operator being unfamiliar with the vessel turned into V2 and struck V2 midship on the port side of V2 causing a 24 inch gash half way between the rubrail and the waterline.  
  
  The occupant of V1 was ejected from the vessel and one of the occupants in V2 was thrown into V2 from the bow seat.  The operator of V1 swam back to V1 and left the area without exchanging information with V2.  V1 was found abandoned along the shoreline in Dunnellon and V2 took his vessel to the boat ramp and recovered it to his trailer. 
  
  V2 occupant was diagnosed with a back strain.
