RedactedNarrative: On Saturday, March 13, 2021, at approximately 1758 hours, Miami Dade Police Department received a call about a boating accident involving a vessel and a Personal Watercraft (PWC) with injuries. The boating accident occurred on the Intercoastal Waterway (ICW), just north of the 79th St. Causeway in Miami-Dade County.  Miami Dade Fire Rescue arrived on scene at approximately 1811 hours, and immediately started treating the injured party. At approximately 1820 hours, FWC Communication Center received the call.
  
  At approximately 1850 hours, I arrived at Pelican Harbor Marina and was advised that the injured occupants had already been transported to the Mount Sinai Medical Center, located in Miami-Dade County.  A white and yellow PWC displaying Florida registration numbers FL3102SW (V1) was on the shoreline with extensive damage to its bow (front) and starboard (right) side. The damage was crushing on the bow(front) and the entire starboard (right) side of the PWC had propeller cuts in the fiberglass. 
  
  The other vessel involved was a 36-foot center console Deep Impact vessel displaying Florida registration numbers FL0033SV (V2). V2 had 5 occupants on board. Occupant stated that she had pain in her arm, lower back, and foot due to falling when the vessel collided. Another person refused medical treatment.
  
  According to witness statements and interviews, V2 was traveling in a southbound direction on the ICW just north of the 79th street causeway. V1 was west of the ICW, heading eastbound. V1 attempted to cross the ICW Channel and entered ahead of V2, which impeded V2’s path. V1 at the time was the give way vessel, and V2 was the stand on vessel. 
  
  V1 stopped in front of V2's path, then turned to port (left), and was now facing V2’s bow (front). V2 took evasive maneuvers and attempted to avoid a collision with V1, V2 turned to port (left). V1 attempted to avoid the collision and also turned to port (left). 
  
  Ultimately the vessels were in such close quarters that they collided. V2’s propellers struck V1 that caused fiberglass damage and both the operator and occupant were struck by V2’s propellers. Operator1 suffered a 1-inch laceration on the dorsal part of his right foot. V1 occupant suffered a 4-inch laceration to her right foot. 
  
  Pictures of the injuries were not available due to the hospital staff treating the wounds.  
  
  Operator1 will be issued a citation for careless operation of a vessel, navigation rule 5(improper look-out) and 15 (crossing situation (a) ).
