RedactedNarrative: On 7-1-17, at approximately 1500 hrs. I received a dispatch from white county dispatch that there was an incident with the shafer queen and another boat.  Officer and i responded to indiana beach.  We docked our boat on the west side of the amusement park and walked in that way.  
  
  We made contact with director of operations.  She stated that the shafer queen was on a tour and there was a boat anchored in the lake and that the shafer queen somehow caught the anchor rope of the other vessel and pulled it into the shafer queen.  She told me that she was told this by the driver.  She also stated that the incident happened around 1300 hrs.
  
  vessel #2 owner  wrote that he and his wife were anchored in the middle of the lake towards the dam.  He stated that they noticed the shafer queen was turning close to them and wondered if it was going to hit them.  He then stated that it hit the front left side of their boat causing his boat to go towards the paddle wheels.  He untied the anchor from front cleat and pushed away.
  
  After reading that i talked with operator1.  He stated that he must have caught the anchor rope of the boat and that the anchor rope was too long.  He also stated that they had to give way to the shafer queen as they are the less maneuverable boat.  I informed him a boat that is anchor is not maneuverable at all and that he needed to avoid the collision.  I told operator1 that i would get with him later after he finished his written statement.
  
  We arrived by boat and docked at the ramp.  The boat was on their lift.  Officer took photographs of the boat and i asked to see the anchor line.  The anchor line was measured by laying it out on the dock alongside the boat.  It measured approximately 60 feet in length.  There was damage to the anchor line approximately 15 feet from the end that was tied to the boat.  On the rope, there was red paint transfer that would appear to be from the red paint on boat.  It appears that the rope was smashed between the two boats.  We left after gathering their information and told them to call when they got an estimate for the damage.
  
  The following week i talked to subject and she stated that she received an estimate for the damage to their boat and she forwarded me the estimate.  I also spoke to operations director and she told me that operator1 quit the day of the crash.  They asked him to take a drug test per their company policy and he told them that he quit. The director stated that she is waiting for the company to send the insurance information to her and she would forward it to me.  I then went to operator1's residence and dropped off an operator's report form for the accident.  I informed him that it needs to be filled out and sent back in within 24 hours.  He stated ok.
