  Conservation Officers were contacted by Dickinson County Dispatch in reference to a hit & run boating incident on West Okoboji Lake with injuries. 
  When en route to the Gull Point Lake Patrol Station Conservation Officers was contacted by Arnolds Park Fire & Rescue. He informed Conservation Officers the Fire Boat had towed the disabled boat -V1- (2008 Chaparral 256 SSXC, Iowa Registration IA8471BG, HIN #FGB20462F708) to the south dock at Manhattan Beach Resort. Fire & Rescue stated the owner/operator of the boat was receiving medical attention, and would be transported to Lakes Regional Hospital.

  CO Conservation Officers arrived at Manhattan Beach Resort by patrol boat. Conservation Officers spoke with Fire & Rescue and he informed me the Fire Boat was out searching for the boat that left the scene, as it was unknown if individuals in that boat were injured or if that boat was disabled also. I looked over the OPERATOR 1’s boat for any evidence that would assist in locating the boat that left the scene. Radio traffic earlier had stated the boat that left was probably blue in color. I corrected this as the blue coloring was from vinyl color transfer from the OPERATOR 1 vessel, not the vessel that left the scene.  CO Conservation Officers explained the vessel we were looking for was probably white in color not blue.
  Fire & Rescue stated the fire boat was out using night vision along the shorelines. I asked if Dickinson County Emergency Management Coordinator had been contacted to utilize the county’s drone. Fire & Rescue stated he was on his way. Coordinator put the drone up which is equipped with thermal imaging.
  I spoke with Deputy who was on scene also. Deputy informed me a witness had observed the second boat leaving the scene heading north from the Manhattan Point area. I took down witness information to contact him later. I asked Deputy if he could protect the scene so we could go out and search for the missing boat.

  Conservation Officers arrived at Manhattan Beach Resort. I updated them on the progress and we all headed out to search for the boat that left the scene. I stayed in contact with both Fire & Rescue and Coordinator as they guided us to “Hot” boats. All of these boats were eliminated as the missing boat. We also searched many of the docks looking for the boat that left the scene.
  August 5, 2020 Approximately 0118 hours:
  Conservation Officers towed the OPERATOR 1 boat to the Gull Point Lake Patrol station on West Lake Okoboji from the dock at Manhattan Beach Report. WPO & I went ahead to get a boat trailer to load the OPERATOR 1’s boat. When the boat was loaded on a trailer and out of the water, CO photographed the vessel. The OPERATOR 1 boat was transported to the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Law Enforcement Bureau Building at 1321 Harpen Street, Milford, Iowa 51315.
  August 6, 2020 Approximately 1230hrs:
  Iowa DNR Captain arrived at the Gull Point Lake Patrol Station. Captain and I, Conservation Officers discussed a number of possible tips we had received in reference to the hit and run boat. Captain and I decided to check out the tips located in the portion of the lake the vessel had fled to after the incident. We looked over a couple of boats and were able to eliminate them. 
  Captain and I looked at a number of boats in hoists north of Pikes Point by pulling between docks with our patrol boat. We were able to eliminate boats we believed fit the general description of the boat that fled (light colored with an anchor, large boat by comparison to the damage on the OPERATOR 1 boat, either a Bimini top or arch of some kind).
  August 6, 2020 Approximately 1415hrs:
  Captain and I skipped over some docks as there were only small boats by them. I told Captain I wanted to check a dock in the northeast corner of the lake as there were a number of larger boats in hoists by it. The dock is located at 15191 Weather End Drive Spirit Lake, IA 51360. The dock is an association dock and has 5 hoists associated with it. 
  The hoist furthest out into the lake next to the platform had a 2010 Boston Whaler (Iowa Registration IA9854BH)- V2- in it and it was sitting at a slight angle in the hoist. We pulled up to the dock and I observed some damage marks on the bow of the Boston Whaler. I could see blue color transfer that was consistent with the blue vinyl coloration from the OPERATOR 1 boat. There was very fresh damage to bow and both sides of the Boston Whaler as there was no staining or vegetation in the areas of damage. There was also a number of places where freshly peeled gel coat was still hanging from the Boston Whaler. I took a number of photographs of the damage from the dock and our patrol boat (Pictures Attached (Photo Log #1)).
  I contacted Water Patrol Officer (WPO) to our location and protect the scene while Captain and I got a search warrant for the Boston Whaler.  Alcohol was involved & the Operator of V2 was cited for "leaving the scene without rendering assistance."  Life jackets were not used by either party. On 8/4/2020, the operator of V1  left his house that evening to go on a boat ride & took his laptop computer with him to do some work, while on the boat.  The Operator of V1 typically drove his boat down to Arnold’s Park and back home on a regular basis.  The last thing the Operator of V1 remembers is seeing a bow anchor bolt about to hit him and a boat about to run him over. The Operator of V2 admitted that he was driving back to the dock on his father in-law’s Boston Whaler.  V2 Operator stated that he had a passenger in the boat.  He stated that he was going approximately 10mph and the bow was up at the time he struck something. The Operator of V2 reported that he didn’t see any boat prior to the collision.
