RedactedNarrative: SUMMARY
  On 07/02/2017 at approximately 1115 hours I, US Park Ranger L, was called by dispatch to a hit and run vessel accident at the Bullfrog main ramp. I was informed of the vessel accident by dispatch; however I had heard the radio communications between one of our AIS Rangers and Dispatch for further information. It was stated over the radio that the houseboat (a 1990 RHR Houseboat named Jest-4-Fun) had struck a ski boat (a 2005 Four Winns Horizon 230) and the houseboat was seen leaving the scene of the accident. It was later found out that the houseboat dropped off a party member for information exchange and was moving away from the main ramp to avoid hitting anyone else. The house boat claimed to have had an engine failure just prior to the vessel collision.
  
  INITIAL
  On 07/02/2017 at approximately 1115 hours I was dispatched to a vessel accident at the Bullfrog main ramp. No injuries were reported. I arrived on scene at approximately 1120 hours to find the vessel being put on the truck and trailer at the Bullfrog main ramp by the owner. I spoke with OPERATOR1 briefly and told him to move the damaged vessel on its trailer up to the prep lanes above the main ramp. At this time I noticed the back left side of the vessel had sustained a large amount of damage where fiberglass was punctured and indented from being struck by another vessel. I followed OPERATOR1 up the launch ramp and regained contact to begin the vessel accident report. While I was taking the vessel accident report from OPERATOR1, US Park Ranger boated over from Halls Crossing to assist in the vessel accident. Ranger met with houseboat Jest-4-Fun,at the Bullfrog fuel dock to gather vessel information and take pictures of any damage.
  
  INVESTIGATION
  I spoke with OPERATOR1 and asked him to explain to me what exactly happened. OPERATOR1 said that the houseboat Jest-4-Fun was coming into the courtesy dock at the Bullfrog main ramp where OPERATOR1 had just put his boat in the water. 
  
  OPERATOR1 continued by saying the houseboat came into the courtesy dock and wasn't able to stop short of hitting his boat. The houseboat has a metal push bumper extended around the bow of the boat which is what made contact with OPERATOR1's ski boat. OPERATOR1 stated that the houseboat immediately backed out and began leaving the Bullfrog main ramp. As he and his family thought the houseboat was leaving the scene, they gathered information from other bystanders for witness statements and gathered as much vessel descriptors for the houseboat as they could. Once I got a clear understanding of what happened according to OPERATOR1, I collected all needed information for the vessel accident report, and took pictures of all the damage to vessel. I gave OPERATOR1 my business card with information pertaining to the vessel accident and how to obtain a copy of it for insurance purposes. Before clearing the main ramp I spoke with another gentleman that was part of the houseboat Jest-4-Fun's party. The male stayed behind in good faith to exchange information if needed and to let everyone know that the houseboat and operator were not leaving the scene to run, but to clear out so they would not hit any other vessels due to engine failure. I cleared the main ramp at approximately 1210 hours.
  
  At approximately 1215 hours I arrived at the Bullfrog fuel dock to follow up with Ranger and the operator of vessel Jest-4-Fun. Ramger had obtained all needed information, pictures, and a vessel safety inspection prior to my arrival. I continue over to the houseboat operator. I spoke with operator2 about how our process works for vessel accidents and gave him my business card with information for the vessel accident and how to obtain a copy of it for insurance purposes. operator2 inquired about any injuries for the other party in which I informed him there were none. I cleared the BF fuel docks and the vessel accident at approximately 1230 hours.
