RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 (V1) damaged the northernmost dock at The Sailfish Marina in Palm Beach Gardens Florida while undocking. An issue with the starboard engine throttle system allowed tidal current from the north to turn the stern of the vessel toward the dock. There was a time delay in engine response to throttle position. The operator of V1 placed the engines in forward to avoid striking the dock and, as a result, an attached spring line pulled against the dock causing damage.
  
  All persons involved were uninjured. The malfunction in the wiring system placed the operator in a situation where he was required to pull away from the dock to avoid collision and was the primary cause of the accident.
