RedactedNarrative: On 1/24/2020 at approximately 8:20 PM, Vessel 1 (V1), a 2016, black, 19 foot, Yamaha jet boat bearing the Florida registration FL6477RD was travelling south through the intercostal waterway (ICW) in the area of Key Largo.
  
  Onboard V1 were two people. V1 was travelling at an estimated 5-10 mph (not on plane) and had just cleared the south end of Grouper Creek. V2 was an unknown center console vessel described to have twin engines and be 25-27 ft long. It was travelling north and into Grouper Creek with one person onboard and on plane going an estimated 35-45 mph. The two vessels collided starboard side to starboard side in between red ICW marker 52A and green ICW marker 53. 
  
  Operator1 was operating V1 and was keeping the red ICW marker close to his starboard side to leave space for the incoming vessel (V2) to his port but V2 continued straight for V1. Operator1 had all navigational lights functioning and began to flash his lights when he saw V2 coming straight at his vessel. In an attempt to avoid collision, Operator1 turned V1 hard to port causing the two vessels to collide starboard side to starboard side. 
  
  	The collision caused subject1 who was sitting to the left of Operator1, to fall forward and cause a strain/sprain along with a contusion to her left knee and a contusion to her left arm. The two vessels came to a stop and exchanged dialogue about the injuries and agreed on meeting at Caribbean Club to report the incident and seek medical attention. Once both vessels got underway to the north back toward Caribbean Club, V2 turned off its navigation lights and turned around toward the south and sped off on plane. 
  
  	V1 arrived at the Caribbean Club Docks at about 8:40 PM and met with EMS personnel as well as FWC and MCSO Officers. Subject1 refused medical attention from EMS and Operator1 was uninjured. 
  
  	FWC and USCG Islamorada launched 3 vessels to search for the Hit and Run vessel (V2) as well as land personnel checked local public boat ramps in the area, but the vessel was not located. Suspect is still at large. 
  
  	Photos of V1 were taken documenting the damage consisting of crush damage to the fiberglass on the starboard bow as well as cut damage to the topside on the starboard bow gunwale and several other scratches and gouges.
