RedactedNarrative: Vessel operator #1 stated in effect: I was traveling out of Corsons Inlet jumping waves when I made a right turn. At that time, I saw a jet ski coming directly towards me. The driver tried to steer out of the way but hit me on the right side. 
  
  Vessel operator #2 stated in effect: Operator #2 has not given a statement (see narrative).
  
  Investigation revealed: It should be noted there was no investigation on scene due to the fact this incident was reported the next day. All parties had departed and statements were taken via telephone from the reporting party. Operator #1 was contacted and provided the aforementioned statement. Same has not provided any other information in reference to this incident. Operator #2's father (the registered owner)was contacted and spoke with via telephone. Same stated his son was traveling out of the inlet and cut off. Subject stated his son did not report any injury and the vessel sustained minor damage to the bow and plastic hood. Statements from the operator2 were not obtained due to their lack of cooperation. At that time, I requested the vessel documentation and to speak with the operator. This request was met with negative results and communication ceased. 
  
  On  8/13/2018 I investigated vessel #1 which was located at Beesley's Point Sea Doo for repair. At that time I viewed the vessel identified as a 2017 white and black Sea Doo Spark bearing New Jersey registration. I then noted damage to the starboard side. I was advised by staff that even though the damage was minor the vessel sustained total damage due to cracks in the plastic hull below the waterline. No other damage was noted on vessel #1.  
  
  Vessel #2 was not viewed. 
  
  Investigation revealed: Vessel #1 to be traveling east out of Corson's inlet followed by Vessel #2 to the starboard rear. At that time, Vessel #1 made an abrupt turn to the starboard side and slowed. Vessel #2 traveling at a high rate of speed attempted to slow and struck Vessel #1 in the starboard side with the bow of the vessel. Both vessels were operable and returned to Corson's Inlet boat ramp. No injuries were reported. Operator #1 stated after taking the vessel to be repaired and contacting their insurance company Operator #1 requested to report the incident. Same gave an initial statement and would not respond to further requests.  Investigators conclusions could not be made at this time due to a lack of witness statements and operator cooperation.
