RedactedNarrative: On april 11, 2015, at approximately 9:00am, operator1 and five other passengers departed from northwest creek marina on a 41 foot sailboat owned and operated by operator1 (two peas).  The intention of their trip was to be the lead vessel of a 24 foot boat flotilla in a fleet ceremony in fairfield harbour.  At approximately 11:00am, operator1 began his return into northwest creek marina.  Operator1's intention was to dock his vessel in his assigned slip, which was located on the southern side of the main dock, first slip, and third row of vessel back from the main channel of northwest creek.  As operator1 approached the main dock at a perpendicular angle, traveling at less than one mile per hour, he turned hard to port-left.  Once the vessel was at the appropriate angle, operator1 attempted to engage the engine in reverse.  His intention was to back his vessel into his slip to where the stern, back, of the vessel was against the dock.  Operator1 indicated that the engine increased rpms, but would not engage in reverse.  The vessel then continued moving forward at a low rate of speed, as the port side bow, left front, of two peas struck the starboard stern, right rear, portion of another vessel.  The point of contact on the kizmet was on the vessel's "life sling package", which was affixed to the vessel's railing.
  
  After examining the cable responsible for engaging operator1's vessel "two peas" in reverse, i determined that it had malfunctioned, preventing the engine from engaging in reverse.
  
  After examining the alleged damage to the "kizmet", it appeared that the lower right portion of the davit was disconnected from the hull, the right rear railing was bent forward, and one post of the railing had been disturbed at the base.
  
  ***i note that upon my inspection of the alleged damages to the "kizmet", i could not definitely substantiate that the damage was a direct result from the collision with operator1's vessel "two peas".
