RedactedNarrative: Marina employee advised that the vessel was pulling into the slip on October 20, when his throttle cable broke.  Operator1's incident left damage to the dock and possibly V2's vessel.  Employee's with Glade Marina had to repair and replace some of the wooden boards on dock A between Operator1's and V2's vessels.  At that point in time, neither Operator1 nor Glade Marina employees notified V2 of any damage to his vessel.
  
  It was not until December 9, 2018, when V2 returned to Glade Marina and his vessel and noticed the damage sustained to the bow, gunwale, and bimini top.  V2 and I observed some small pieces of what appeared to be fiberglass in the floor of his vessel.  I observed the damage to his vessel and the newly repaired dock.  I attempted to contact Operator1 to determine what happened during the incident on October 20.  Operator1 did not answer my phone call.  I left a voice mail message for a return phone call regarding the incident.
  
  Operator1 stated that as he was slowly maneuvering his vessel back into his slip at Glade Marina, he attempted to put his vessel in reverse when the vessel actually went forward.  As this was happening, Operator1's vessel ramped up onto the dock walkway and appeared to strike V2's vessel.  Operator1 stated the whole incident was over in a matter of seconds.  Operator1 advised he pulled the kill switch cord to get the vessel to stop.  The vessel then fell back into the water in his boat slip.  Operator1 advised he then went straight to the marina office and advised them of the incident.  Operator1 advised that he did not look at the vessel in the slip across from him.  Operator1 advised that is why he did not report hitting another vessel, he did not realize that he had done so. The only damage he thought was sustained was to the walk-way.  (see attached witness statement)
  
  Glade Marina management created an incident report for their records.  Glade Marina management advised that they did not look at V2's vessel to see if it had any damage.  Glade Marina management had the walk-way repaired from the incident.
