RedactedNarrative: On May 28th, 2022, at approximately 0800 hours, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission was on duty, in uniform, on patrol in a marked patrol vehicle, in the vicinity of Tavernier, in Monroe County, State of Florida.
  	At approximately 0800 hours, I was dispatched to a call reference a boating accident that occurred on the same day, at aproximately 0255 hours, in the vicinity of Matecumbe Marina.  V1, while on plane, struck V2 on its rear port side.  No injuries were sustained by any of the involved parties.
  At the conclusion of my investigation, I concluded that V1 was anchored approximately 1000 yards west of V2’s anchored location.  V1 arrived at that location after dusk.  V1 then came on plane and headed west of its anchored location.  V1’s operator reached down to grab a flashlight and took his attention away from the operation of the vessel.  V1 then struck V2 on the rear, port side of the vessel.  Neither of the occupants of either vessel sustained any injuries.  It was dark with clear skies.  V1’s operator stated he could not see V2’s anchor light due to his height and the low clearance of V1’s T-top.
