RedactedNarrative: On 7/13/21 at 11:00 I (CPO) met with Operator 2 to report a past tense boat accident.  O2 stated on Sunday July 4th at approximately 3:45 PM he was operating his jet ski on Lake Michigan out of Waukegan Harbor.  O2 stated there was heavy boat traffic that day and a large number of jet skis present.  As O2 passed the mouth of the navigation channel at Waukegan Harbor he was traveling north towards North Beach.  After passing the lighthouse point O2 stated he was making a left turn heading towards the beach when another jet ski (operated by O1) attempted to over take him at a high rate of speed.  O2 stated he did not see the jet ski as he began his turn and the jet ski operated by O1 struck his jet ski along the bow causing significant hull damage.  O2 was knocked off of his jet ski on impact but was uninjured.  O1 was overtaking O2 and was the give-way vessel at the time of incident.  O2, being over taken was the stand-on vessel.  O2''s jet ski filled with water and sank, however they were able to recover it on scene.
  
  O2 received a quote in Lake Villa for the damage.  They quoted a minimum of $4,000 for the hull damage, and as much as $7,000 if there happen to be any engine components that needed to be replaced.
  
  O2 has All State Insurance on his vessel Policy #XXX and has already initiated the claim process.  All State requested a crash report be completed by Law Enforcement at which time O2 contacted our agency.
