RedactedNarrative: On July 26, 2018 at approximately 2330hrs, I arrived on scene, via patrol vessel, on the South River, to a reported vessel striking a pier at this residence. Approximately 50 to 75 yards off the pier was a white, 36ft Monk trawler, with the name of "No Limits", was stationary with an individual sitting on the aft deck (identified as the owner). For his safety, I instructed Operator to put on a personal flotation device. Operator initially responded with "No." Operator was informed that this was not a request and, as a result, produced a life jacket and put it on. I asked Operator to board my vessel so as to be brought to shore for evaluation by EMS personnel and as part of the investigation into the accident. As I was assisting Operator unto my vessel, I detected a moderate odor of alcoholic beverage upon his person. When asked, Operator advised that he had "1 or 2 beers" approximately "a few hours ago." Operator had no apparent injuries so EMS personnel cleared the scene. I informed Operator that field sobriety testing would be performed. Operator expressed no surprise or confusion and stated he was familiar with the testing. Operator's speech was coherent. Operator's demeanor could best be described as relatively upbeat. Standard Field Sobriety Testing was conducted on Operator. Prior to beginning, Operator was asked about any illnesses and/or injuries he has or recently has had, any surgeries he has had, any eye conditions he has, and any medications he may be taking. Operator stated he was taking medication for depression. After SFST's were administered, Operator stated he uses reading glasses.  The first test performed was Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus. I informed Operator to keep his arms at his side and follow the stimulus (a silver, ball point pen) with his eyes only. Operator acknowledged that he understood these instructions. When asked if he could see the stimulus, he stated he did. Prior to beginning the HGN test, I observed Operator's eyes to be watery. I observed both of Operator's pupils to be of equal size. While conducting the HGN test, the following was observed: Lack of smooth pursuit (both eyes)Distinct and sustained nystagmus at maximum deviation (both eyes) Onset of nystagmus prior to 45 degrees (both eyes) Vertical nystagmus was also observed in both eyes. The second test administered was the walk and turn. For this test, instructions that I gave to Operator were demonstrated visually by Corporal of Maryland Natural Resources Police. Operator was instructed to stand with his left foot on an imaginary line with the heel of his right foot touching the toe of his left foot, while keeping his hands by his side, and instructed not to start until told to. Operator was instructed, when told to begin, to take nine steps, heel-to-toe, on the line, pivot while taking a series of small steps, and return along line while taking nine steeps, heel-to-toe. Operator was informed that even though Corporal demonstrated with three steps, that he would be taking nine steps. When asked, Operator stated he understood the instructions. Operator was barefoot during the test. While conducting the walk and turn test, the following clues were observed: Started too soon (2 times) Could not keep balance (3 times)First nine steps, missed heel-to-to (steps one and two) First nine steps, stepped off line (step nine) Second nine steps, missed heel-to-toe (steps seven, eight, nine) Improper turn (could not keep balance while turning and stepped off line)  The third test administered was the one-leg stand. Again, my instructions were visually demonstrated by Corporal. Operator was instructed to stand with his heels together and arms at his side. When told to begin, Operator was instructed to raise either leg approximately six inches off the ground with the raised foot parallel to the ground, to keep both legs straight, to keep his eyes on the elevated foot, and while holding this position, count aloud one thousand one, one thousand two, one thousand three, and so forth. When asked, Operator stated he understood these instructions. While conducting the one-leg stand test, the following was observed:
  Raised arms Hopping Put foot down (after 14 seconds)  Operator was offered a PBT and agreed. Operator was informed that PBT results are not admissible as evidence in court. Operator agreed to a PBT. The PBT returned a result of .121. Operator was informed that, due to the results of the field sobriety tests, he would be taken into custody. Operator was read his Advice of Rights, and indicated on this form that he would submit to a chemical breath test.
   Prior to departing the property, a voluntary witness statement was left with the property owner, a witness statement was left with the property owner. Operator was transported to Maryland State Police Barracks, Annapolis and a chemical breath test was administered by Maryland State Police personnel. The test returned a BAC of .09.  Operator was asked to give a voluntary statement, regarding his version of the evening's events. Prior to his writing his statement, I informed Operator that I was investigating a minor accident in Ego Alley in Annapolis. Operator seemed initially surprised to learn about this accident, but later in his statement, stated he did, indeed strike the vessel involved in that incident.  The next day, another officer went to the property to photograph damages to the property, as well as the striking vessel (which was still anchored in its location from the previous evening). Damage observed to property included the dock, a boat elevator, and a vessel that was resting on the elevator.
