RedactedNarrative: As V1 was cruising across the lake it came into contact with rocks in a shallow area of the lake. Minor propeller damage resulted as V1 struck the rocks. V2, another boat in the same party was following V1 as they were cruising. As V1 stopped to avoid the shallow water V2, kept cruising, not realizing V1 had stopped. V2 struck V1 in the transom between the main outboard motor and the gunwale. As V2 hit V1 it struck P1 and O1 in V1. 
  
  P1 and O1 both sustained major injuries and were transported to the hospital for treatment. Also at this time O2 was thrown from V2. O2 was wearing a Type V PFD, which inflated and kept O2 afloat. O2 sustained no injuries. 
  
  Damage to V1 included: broken wave wacker on starboard side, broken windshield, broken depth finder, damage to outboard motor and fiberglass damage on gunwale near transom and on starboard side of gunwale. Damage to V2 included: large dent in port side near the waterline and a large hole from rivets being pulled out near the keel.
