RedactedNarrative: According to statements from the drivers and passengers of the boats involved, V2 had been at idle speed for approximately 45 seconds to one minute, approaching a blown down tree to fish around it.  V1  was following another boat up stream and both boats turned left into the cove that V2 was in.  Once in the cove the lead boat slowed and made a turn to the left.  To keep from getting too close to and avoid striking the lead boat, V1 slowed and made a turn to the right.  As a result of slowing down and hitting the wake of the lead boat, the bow of V1 raised up.  The passenger in V2 saw that V1 was heading toward him and begin yelling and waving his arms in an attempt to get the attention of the operator of V1.  Once the bow of V1 came down, the operator saw V2 and turned further right in an attempt to avoid it.  Once the passenger of V2 realized that the two boats were going to make contact, he grabbed his son who was in the operator''s seat, and pulled him to the passenger side of the boat.  V1 then struck V2.  After the collision V1 turned around and approached V2 to render aid.
