  On 08/22/2021, at about 04:40 p.m., these two vessels were in the Puget Sound at Quartermaster Harbor, located near Vashon Island, WA in King county. 
  
  According to the Operator of V1, V1 Operator, it was a windy day on the water as he was maneuvering towards the Harbor.  He was unable to stop is vessel in time before hitting V2 with his anchor.  There were no injuries to the people on board V2.
  
  The Owner of V2, V2 Operator, reported that his vessel had been anchored for an hour or so at Quartermaster Harbor.  His vessel was anchored out of the main travel route for boats coming into the harbor and heading for the marina near Burton.  
  
  V2 Operator reported that while he and the passengers aboard his vessel were relaxing in the cockpit, they saw V1 traveling toward the marina.  It appeared that V1 was travelling at about 7 or 8 knots and was going to pass in front of them OK, so there were no concerns.  They then saw that the Operator of V1 was hunched over and not looking.  He turned toward V2’s bow and did not turn away.
  
  All Occupants on V2 started yelling and V2 Operator leaped over his wife, V2 Passenger 2, to get to the air horn.  He let out a good 5 second blast.  V1’s Operator looked up and slammed his vessel in reverse, but it was too late.  V1 struck V2 at an estimated speed of 2 to 3 knots.  The impact area was about 10 feet from the bow, punching in the fiberglass.
  
  According to V2 Operator, the Operator of V1 admitted fault and he has insurance. V1 Operator was very apologetic and reported that he and his wife were looking down at their phones at the time of the accident.  There were no injures and V1 Operator e-mailed his insurance information to V2 Operator.
