RedactedNarrative: On June 12, 2018 at approximately 1215 hours, a single vessel  accident occurred within Ponce Inlet Pass, Volusia County, Florida. V2 is a unidentified sportfish vessel powered by diesel inboard motors. V1 is a 19 foot fiberglass outboard recreational vessel. V1 was operated by an adult male with 3 other occupants.  
  
  V2, was operating at a slow speed making way through the inlet returning to port. 
   V1 was operating at a slow speed making way out of the inlet pass. V1 attempted to cross over V2's wake and one of V1's occupants obtained an injury. V1 continued out the inlet to calmer waters and called for help. USCG, Beach Safety and FWC units all responded and the injured party was transferred to the USCG vessel. USCG then returned to station to meet with EMS.
  
  V1's operator and other occupants returned with their vessel to USCG station and met with responding LE Agencies.  
  
  V1 one occupant received injuries requiring treatment beyond first aid and life jackets were not used. recvd muscle strains to back.
  
  From evidence and statements gathered to date, I conclude the following: 
  1.  Operator was operating V1 at the time of the accident in Ponce Inlet. 
  2. There was approximately less than a foot chop in that location of the inlet. 
  3. V2 was coming into the inlet in proximity of V1.
