RedactedNarrative: Vessel #1(pontoon) was leaving the marina after getting fuel.  Vessel #2 (houseboat) was backing out of their slip and continued to back toward the  no wake zone buoys to get squared up to make it into the gas docks.  
  
  The pontoon boat was following the houseboat out toward the no wake zone.  The house boat changed from reverse to forward direction.  The vessels were heading straight at each other at this point.  The vessels were in a narrow area between “A” dock and the shore.  
  
  The occupants of the houseboat yelled to the pontoon boat that they are now heading forward into the marina.  The pontoon boat tried to get out of the way by backing up, but was not moving fast enough to avoid collision.  The pontoon boat then went in forward motion and tried to cut the vessel hard right, but when this happened the houseboat''s front port corner made contact to pontoon''s port side.  There was not enough evidence to distinguish which vessel was the stand-on boat.
