RedactedNarrative: V1 was pulling anchor when the operator left the helm with the vessel still in reverse, therefore causing a collision with V2 and V3 that were moored behind V1. 
  
  V1 was trying to anchor and went to unlock the bolt on the anchor. Operator did not realize that the boat was in reverse. He descended from the helm and could not control it from the cabin because they were locked on the fly bridge. He started towards the ladder on the fly bridge when his boat hit the boat behind. He then climbed up to the fly bridge and put the boat in forward again. V1 tied up at another mooring ball and waited for Coast Guard.
