RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 was traveling West from Sandy Branch Park and entered the main body of Lake Walter F. George at or adjacent to Odom's Point. At this time vessel 1 made a right turn when entering the main lake which altered his direction from West to North.  Vessel 2 was traveling South, from the Gopher Island / Pataula Creek area North of Odom’s Point. Both vessels were displaying a head on path. The operator of vessel 1 stated, he saw the approaching vessel 2, slowed down, and came to a stop. As vessel 2 continued to approach, vessel 1 operator stated they waived their hands to signal the other vessel.  Both vessels changed course and turned East in an attempt to avoid a head on collision. By turning East, both vessels were entering shallow water, which further restricted their maneuverability.
  
   At approximately 0930 hours, vessel 2 struck the port side gunnel of vessel 1 with its starboard side bow. Vessel 1operator stated, he "drove forward to get out from under" vessel 2.  Immediately during the collision the operator of vessel 2 was ejected from his vessel activating the engine kill switch.  The operator of vessel 2 was able to re-enter his vessel without injury.  The operators of both vessels made contact to exchange contact information. The two vessels then parted ways, vessel 1 returned to Sandy Branch Park, vessel 2 continued fishing. The operator of vessel 1, contacted Alabama authorities.
  
   Sgt and I made contact with both vessels and retrieved occupant information and collected evidence and photos of the damage. During the interview with vessel 2 operator, he stated he did not see the other vessel until they were close and tried to pass them on their starboard side, turning East. 
  
  No clear determination could be made as to which vessel was the Stand On and which was the Give Way in this incident and no charges were filed against either operator.
