RedactedNarrative: On 05/23/21 I, CPO, received a report of a boat accident that occurred on the Chain O Lakes.  I contacted the complainant by telephone.  Subject related he was in the channel into Lake Marie and just beginning to go on plane as he left the "No Wake" area, when another boat struck his vessel from behind.  As it was around 1 a.m. in the morning of May 23, 2021, Subject was unable to definitively identify the striking vessel.  However, Subject was able to report the vessel was an older, black and white, tri-hull boat.  Subject also said he believed three, male subjects were on the striking vessel.  As his boat was struck in the stern, Subject said the lower unit of his outdrive was driven down into the mud and, because he was unable to get up on plane right away, he lost sight of the other boat.
  
  Subject provided pictures of the damage to his outdrive, as well as some scratches in the fiberglass at the stern of his boat.  Subject also provided the names and driver''s licenses of his, three passengers.  Subject reported no one was injured on his vessel.  
  
  As of the writing of this report, no vessel information or subjects have been identified.  As such, this report is considered closed.  EOR
