RedactedNarrative: On 05/09/2015, at about 05:35 p.m., these two vessels were operating on Lake Washington about 400 yards off Houghton Beach located near Kirkland, WA in King county.
  
  According to Law Enforcement, it appeared that both vessels were going in a generally North direction when V1 rammed V2 at about a 70 degree angle.  The initial impact was mid-ship on the starboard side of V2.  It also appeared V2 was being overtaken by V1 with V1 travelling at a high rate of speed despite the choppy conditions of the water surface.  
  
   (V1) vision was blocked by his passenger who was sitting on the bow playing like a "rodeo cowboy" and not maintaining a proper lookout.  It is also believed that at V1's speed, the bow of V1 would have continuously been raised and slammed back down thereby preventing operator1 from seeing what was ahead of him.
