RedactedNarrative: Operator #1 stated to the effect that he was attempting to dock his vessel and was struggling. Operator #1 admitted to striking vessel #2 at a slow speed. 
  
  Witness stated he observed Operator1 operating vessel #1 with no one else on board. Witness stated he observed vessel #1 pass the dock then back up and attempt to enter into its slip. Witness stated vessel #1 did not have navigation lights on even though it was dark out. Witness stated he did not see vessel #1 strike vessel #2 but, when he came over to see what was going on, he observed vessel #1 had passed its slip and it's bow was against the bulkhead. Witness stated he observed Operator #1 using his hands to push off of other vessels. Witness stated he saw vessel #1 get very close to vessel #2 and maybe brush up against it. 
  
  Investigation revealed Operator #1 identified as Operator1 was navigating vessel #1. Operator #1 was attempting to dock his vessel in its slip but was having difficulty maneuvering his vessel due to his level of intoxication. 
  
  Vessel #1 struck vessel #2 with its port stern quarter on the rub rail. I observed a screw head not flush with the rub rail on vessel #1 's port stern quarter. I observed a light blue powdery residue matching the color to the hull of vessel #2. The height from the waterline of the rub rail screw on vessel #1, matched the height from the waterline to the gouges in the gel coat of vessel #2.
  
  Damage to vessel #2 included six gouges in the gel coat on the starboard side. The gouges were shallow but enough to remove a layer of gel coat. The gouges were horizontal and parallel to the water line indicating an object dragging across the hull. The height of the gouges were approximately the same as the diameter of the protruding screw on vessel #l's rub rail.
