RedactedNarrative: On or about 5-26-15 V1 was struck by V2.  V1 was operating slowly under the power of an electric trolling motor just outside the mouth of Bullrun Creek in Melton Hill Reservoir.  
  
  Operator2 was operating V2 near the mouth of the creek when he encountered and struck vessel one in the stern at approximately 45 degrees partially overriding V1 and striking Operator1. Operator1 was ejected from the vessel and retrieved by his son and taken back to the boat and then transported to a nearby dock.  After arriving at the dock he was transported via ambulance to the hospital where he was treated for bruises and contusions mainly to his back.  
  
  Operator2 stated that he was traveling less than 10 miles per hour and simply did not see the other vessel because his view was obstructed by a fishing/pedestal seat in the front of the boat.  This occurred on Melton Hill Lake in Anderson County.
