RedactedNarrative: Single vessel accident. Operator of the vessel #1 was approaching cement Marina wall with dock on the starboard side.  The operator forcefully pushed the throttle forward causing the vessel to lunge forward and ride up on sea wall causing gouging damage to the fiberglass on the bow and starboard side of the vessel as well bending the bow eye.  The operator immediately took vessel out of gear upon impact and the vessel slid into the water.  Operator of vessel #1 charged with failure to maintain control of a vessel to avoid an incident resulting in property damage.  
  
  No injuries were reported.  Please note: Witness #2 advised that occupant #6 fell into the water, however this was not due to impact.
  
  Occupant #3 was identified as the owner of the vessel.  Occupant #3 left immediately after the incident before law enforcement arrival.  Multiple attempts to contact occupant #3 were made that evening.  Upon making contact with Occupant #3 several days later, he advised that he was completing the repairs to the vessel himself.  I advised Occupant #3 to contact me with the damage repair costs.  Occupant #3 did not return follow up calls.  Upon making contact with him he state that is cost him $40 in fiberglass and Bondo to fix the damage.
  
  Damages to the vessel included two deep, jagged lacerations to the fiberglass one of which was approximately 20" x 4" wide, the other approximately 10". Damages also included scraping damage on gel coat from the cement sea wall as well as the bow eye being bent from impact with the wall.  Base on my knowledge and experience, this vessel has sustained at least $2000, in damages.
