RedactedNarrative: On October 26, 2016 at approximately 1230 hours, V-1 was traveling west on St. Andrews Bay.  V-1 was close to the shoreline near Bear Point in about 2 feet of water.  V-1 was moving at approximately 15 mph when it collided with a dock.  V-1 hit the dock and the bow went up at about a 45 to 60 degree angle.  The engine was forced up shortly after impact because it was grounded on the bottom of the bay.  This forcing up of engine caused one of the fittings on one of the hydraulic lines to be sheared off (broke off).  
  
  The operator and one of the occupants fell off the vessel.  One occupant sustained a laceration and contusion on his left eye brow.  At approximately 0130 hours the owner of the dock heard some people talking loudly on his dock.  He notified the Bay County Sheriff's Office and deputies were dispatched to the scene.  Deputy arrived on scene at approximately 0224 hours and requested EMS for the injured occupant on V-1.  EMS arrived on scene shortly and the injured occupant received a band aid and then refused treatment from EMS. 
  
  I received a call from FWC dispatch at approximately 0255 hours.  I went on duty at approximately 0315 hours.  I arrived on scene at approximately 0349 hours.  I interviewed the operator and the three occupants involved in the boating accident.  I acquired witness statements from the operator and 2 of the occupants. The injured occupant said that he didn't write good, so I did not receive a written statement from him.  
  
  Based on the physical evidence and witness statements the operator of V-1 was violating Rule #5 Look Out and Rule #6 Safe Speed    navigation rules.  This and operator inattention were the primary contributors to this boating accident.  The operator of V-1 was issued infraction citations for violating Inland Navigation Rule #5 and violating Inland Navigation Rule #6.
