RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 travelling south out of spring run, ran across bow of vessel 2 travelling north on spring run.
  Operator stated he was exiting spring run off the Choctawhatchee River and was coming out of the slough from the springs headed south when he came around a corner and saw a second vessel coming but continued into his path of travel and crossed over into his path. Operator1 saw that the vessel let off the throttle and he let off as he knew they was going to hit. 
  
  Operator1 states that his bow went over the bow of vessel 2 and partially sank the second vessel and operator of vessel 2. Operator1 stated he was nervous and shocked as the operator of vessel 2 was asking for help. Operator1 assisted him and pulled him onto his vessel and called 911. Operator1 stated he drove him to the landing where EMS was waiting. Operator1 stated he was going around 30mph in the channel coming out of spring run. Operator1 provided a sworn statement and drew out a diagram, I was also able to verify the debris field of the accident.
  
  Later I followed up with Operator2 and was provided with a written statement. Operator2 also stated that while he knew it looked like he was at fault that Operator1 initiated a turn left that made him react in the manner he did. Operator2 stated that he was coming into Spring run vessel 1 was flying out the run and into the curve. He stated he was on his phone or other electronic device and believes he was going too fast for conditions in the channel. Operator2 had laceration on right shin bone along with fractured hip/pelvis region.
