RedactedNarrative: Vessels 1 and 2 were Southbound on Lake Murray just north of the spillway.  Vessel-2 was Southbound between the shoreline and the small island that is East of Tucker Tower.  
  
  V-2's operator noticed Vessel-A (non-contact vessel) off to his starboard side, which appeared to be disabled.  V-2  went towards V-A to  check with the operator of V-A to see if they needed assistance.  
  
  As V-2 slowed and was approaching V-A, the operator of V-A started to accelerate and move to the North giving a thumbs up to the operator of V-2.  
  
   V-2 operator turned his attention back ahead and saw V-1 crossing his path from his port side.  V-2 operator pulled the throttle back to neutral and turned hard to the right in an attempt to avoid the collision but was unable to do so. 
  
   Just before impact the operator of V-1 saw V-2 and attempted to turn to the left.  Upon impact, both the operator and passenger of V-1 were thrown off the vessel.  
  
  V-1 went under the port side of V-2 and came out by the stern of V-2 on the port side.  AOI was approx. 1670 yards East of  the SE corner of Tucker Tower, 1867 yards North East of Intersection of 77s and Tucker Tower Rd. and  2667 yards West of  Intersection of 77s and Legate Rd
