RedactedNarrative: On 06/21/15 at approximately 1700 hours, V1 (FL 4138 HL) a 20 foot, white in color center console Hydra Sport struck V2 (FL 5872 PA) a 20 foot red in color, Bennington Marine pontoon boat located at War Veterans Memorial Park Boat Ramp in Pinellas County. V1 was traveling westbound attempting to dock the vessel at the boat ramp when it struck V2 at the ramp. V2 was on the trailer but still in the water at the ramp when it was struck by V1. There were no injuries sustained to any persons on board either vessel as a result of the accident. V1 did not sustain any damage to the vessel when it struck V2. V2 sustained minor property damage on the engine cowling and the rail located on the starboard aft of the vessel (see attached photos). I estimated the damage to be approximately $2,000. 
  
  On 06/21/15 at approximately 1810 hours, I arrived at War Veterans Memorial Park Boat Ramp located in Pinellas County in reference to a minor boating accident with no injuries involving 2 vessels. Upon arrival, I met with the operators of both vessels and obtained written statements. I observed minor damage to the engine cowling on V2 as well as minor rail damage on the starboard Aft of the vessel. I observed no damage to V1. The damage to V2, cracked engine cowling and bent rail on starboard Aft, was consistent with the statement provided to me by the operator of V2 (see attached statement). He stated that his boat was on the trailer at the ramp getting ready to pull it out of the water when he heard yelling behind him and saw a boat coming directly at him. He stated that both persons were at the front of the vessel however, there was no one behind the wheel. Operator2 attempted to stop the vessel from striking his vessel but was unable to. Operator2 stated that V1 struck his vessel with the bow into the stern damaging the engine and back cross bar of the boat. He also stated that V1 was still in gear until someone screamed at him to shut the engine off. 
  
  The operator of V1, provided a statement explaining that he attempted to reverse the vessel however, the throttle became stuck at which time it continued forward and struck V2 (See attached statement). The statement was translated by an occupant who spoke little English. I attempted to check V1 to see if the throttles were inoperable due to mechanical issues however, the engine would not start. Based on my observations and investigation of the accident, I issued a warning to operator1 for improper lookout. I estimated the damages to be approximately $2,000 for V2.
