RedactedNarrative: On 08/19/2022 Operator2 was operating a PWC (V2) traveling east in Arnica Bay. Operator2 was followed by Operator1 operating a PWC (V1). 
  
  Operator2 stated he slowed to stop when he felt an impact to the rear of his vessel. Operator1 stated he was driving his vessel and looked back to check on the other members of the group. When he looked forward he saw Operator2 right in front of him. 
  
  Operator1 attempted to swerve to avoid hitting Operator2 but was unsuccessful. V1 struck V2 on the rear port side. This caused Operator2 and his passenger to be knocked off of their vessel into the water. The members of the group that were riding together assisted the two out of the water and drove to shore. 
  
  Operator2 and his passenger were then taken to a nearby medical facility for treatment for their injuries.
