RedactedNarrative: On February 16, 2019, between 10:15 and 10:45 am two vessels (both with remote steering) collided head on in Baptiste Collette with one subject from the 24ft Triton being injured. Both vessels were maneuvering in an area with dense fog and traveling in the direction of each other. As both vessels came into sight of one another, they both attempted to maneuver to avoid collision however it was too late. 
  
  Both vessels turned left; as the 24ft Triton struck the 40ft crew boat, the crew boat drove over the Triton. Three of the occupants of the Triton then either jumped or were thrown from the vessel into the water and the fourth occupant (the only subject wearing a life preserver)  was momentarily stuck in the vessel, however was pulled from the vessel onto the 40ft crew boat almost immediately following the impact. 
  
  At that time the 24ft Triton then began to circle the 40ft vessel in reverse along with the three subjects in the water (operator1 stated he "I threw the boat in reverse" before he jumped off).  The Captain of the crew boat then used his vessel to shield the subjects in the water from being struck by the unmanned circling vessel by maneuvering to allow the unmanned vessel strike his boat (operator1 was not wearing his cutoff lanyard). 
  
  Once operator2 was able to successfully get the vessel away from the subjects in the water, he immediately maneuvered back to them and he and his crew pulled them from the water (multiple life vest, ring buoy, and lines were thrown to the subjects in the water).  Shortly afterwards the four subjects were picked up by the United States Coast Guard and transported to the hospital. Both vessel had remote steering and no alcohol or drug use is suspected. The primary contributing factor for the incident is restricted vision.
