RedactedNarrative: Operator stated that as he was operating V1 on plane at approximately 25 mph, heading south on the Colorado River, adjacent to the Riverside Resort property. A water taxi was initially facing north at the dock, as the water taxi left the dock area the water taxi turned starboard, east, to cross the river. Operator stated that the water taxi turning to starboard impeded the direction of travel of vessel 1. Operator turned starboard, west, to avoid a collision with the water taxi. As vessel #1 turned the engine stalled and left Operator with no mechanical controls due to vessel 1 being a jet boat. Vessel 1, still moving at cruising speed proceeded to collide with the north side of the north dock owned by the Riverside Resort. The impact location on Vessel 1 was the bow.
       
       Immediately following the impact, Operator stated that he was able to restart vessel 1, and proceed to the Fisherman''s Access boat ramp. Operator stated that he put vessel 1 on its trailer, and proceeded to contact the Riverside Casino Security regarding the accident. 
  
       Inspection of the vessel showed damage to the bow with the majority of damage located on the port side of the bow. The engine on Vessel 1 shifted forward and the steering wheel was noticeably bent. I documented injuries that Operator sustained as a result of the collision as an abrasion on his right shin and a contusion on his lower left abdomen. Pictures are attached.
