RedactedNarrative: Based on evidence collected and interviews conducted, the following was determined:
  
  	On February 5, 2022, at approximately 6:00AM, Operator1 was operating a vessel (FL4422MJ) on Lake Beauclair near a canal that leads to Lake Dora, while Operator2 was operating a vessel (SC3460CG) exiting the canal that leads into Lake Beauclair, coming from Lake Dora.  Both operators were participating in a Bass Fishing Tournament that was ongoing.
  
  	Operator1 had one occupant onboard V1 with him.  Operator1 explained to me that he was operating V1 at idle speeds towards the canal that leads into Lake Dora from Lake Beauclair.  Operator1 stated that upon getting closer to the canal, he saw another vessel, V2, coming out of the canal in his direction, with their navigational lights on.  
  
  Op1 stated that V2 appeared to be picking up speeds and heading straight for him.  Operator1 stated that he and occupant began to yell at the approaching boat and that he steered hard to his port side to avoid collision, resulting in the bow of the V2 to puncture the starboard side of V1.  Operator1 stated that Operator2 stopped and exchanged insurance and contact information and that there wasn’t noticeable damage to V2.  Operator2 stayed on the lake to participate in the Bass Fishing Tournament.  V1 began taking on water, resulting in Operator1 having to be towed in by another bass fisherman.  Operator1 trailered his vessel and proceeded to go home where he waited for FWC.
