RedactedNarrative: Driver of vessel 1 stated that he was riding on the right side of the channel and he started to cross over to the other side of the lake to go to his dock.  He stated that he never saw the bass boat until it was too late.  
  
  Driver of vessel 2 stated that he was coming in to weigh in and he saw vessel 1 start to ease toward him so he started to maneuver away from him.  As he was trying to steer away from him, he stated that vessel 1 cut left in front of him.  He stated that he cut hard left and shut the engine off to try and miss him, and at the last minute vessel 1 saw him and cut back right, which made the vessels barely come in contact with each other.
