RedactedNarrative: V1 was coming from Smylie's Crab Shack headed north then turned east, V2 was at idle speed coming from the east headed to Smylie's Crab Shack.  V1 hit V2 on the forward portion of the starboard side leaving black and yellow transfer as well as a 23 1/8th inch crack in the hull just above the water line.  V1 sustained damage on the starboard side as well, starting just forward of the driver's seating position to the stern.  All evidence suggests V1 made an avoidance maneuver at the last second to avoid collision but was unable to do so resulting in the boats colliding.  V1 operator was ejected into the water and immediately went under and drowned.
