RedactedNarrative: I began to question Operator1 about what led up to the incident.  Operator1 said he was on the PWC doing figure 8s.  He was operating in the body of water straight in front of the dock, as he was coming out of the figure 8 turn, he had gotten water in his eyes.  When he could see again he seen the other vessel, but did not have time to avoid a collision. He made contact with the right front port side of the vessel.  The other vessel involved then assisted him back to his dock. I asked if he was injured he said no just sore from tensing up, but he did not need medical attention.  Operator1 said he had rented the PWC and had watched the safety videos required before renting a vessel.
  
  Operator2said that he was operating the vessel with two other occupants in the boat. He was pulling two people in a tube behind the boat. Operator2 said as he began to turn to the right he could see Operator1 to his left on the PWC.  He said that the PWC then was turning as well and collided with his boat.  This damaged the boat and it began to take on water.  
  
  Operator2 then assisted Operator1 and helped him out of the water and pulled the PWC back to the dock.  Operator2 then began to go to his dock when his engine stopped. The operator then had to get assistance from a passing vessel to pull him to his dock.  I spoke with all those in the vessel and they said they were not injured.
  
  After hearing the witness statement and seeing the evidence.  I determined that Operator1 should have been the give way vessel and Operator2 was the stand-on vessel.  No citations were issued to Operator1 for failure to obey the boating rules of the road.
