RedactedNarrative: Owner of Vessel #1 Stated in effect:  My vessel was struck while it was docked.  I was not here at the time but was told by subject who was attempting to help vessel #2 into his slip after loosing power.  There is damage to the Bow Pulpit from the incident.
  
  Owner of Vessel #2 Stated in effect:  My wife and I were attempting to dock our boat and lost power.  The wind pushed us into the pilings and my wife pushed off the front of boat1 in order to manually pull the boat into the slip.  Our boat did touch his but there was no damage where we touched.
  
  Witness Stated in effect:  I saw the boat trying to dock and could tell the owner lost power.  I was behind his boat but could tell that the two boats touched several times.  I tried to throw him a line to help as the wind was strong.
  
  Investigation revealed:  Vessel #1 was docked at the Wehrelan Bros Marina, Brick township, Ocean County at slip facing W/B.  Vessel #2 was traveling N/B attempting to dock in slip when it lost power.  
  
  Vessel #2 struck the pilings between the two slips and the bow of both vessels touched.   The operator of Vessel #2 was assisted by his wife  and the Witness and the vessel was secured in slip.  The damage to the Bow Pulpit on Vessel #1 does not coincide with the scuff marks on the starboard side of Vessel #2.
