RedactedNarrative: SYNOPSIS:
  Boating accident involving one boat and Quail Creek North Dock
  
  NARRATIVE:
  On July 18th, 2022 while on patrol at Quail Creek State Park in Washington County at approximately 1600 hours one male came up to me while I was parked at the Entrance booth. The male claimed to be in a boating accident because of a kayak being inside of the marina. 
  
  INVESTIGATION:
  The man later identified as Operator explained to me that a man with a dog on a kayak was on his way while he was trying to dock his vessel. Operator had to make an abrupt maneuver to avoid hitting the kayaker and hit the dock instead. When Operators vessel hit the dock, it punched a hole into the fiberglass of the port side of his vessel. (SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS). I asked for Operator'S Drivers License, registration and proof of insurance. Operator could only provide me with his registration. I advised Operator that he must carry Proof of Insurance to operate a vessel and vehicle in the state of Utah. Operator claimed his Insurance was at home as well as his DL. Operator asked if he could go home to get these items for me and I agreed. Operator stated he would be right back. Operator did not come back the day of the 18th.
  
  CONTACT CONTINUED:
  On July 20th, Operator came back with his DL and Insurance. Operator claimed the insurance was good at the time of the accident. The paper he gave me stated Policy Information as of July 19th, 2022. 
  
  CONCLUSION:
  Based on the damage of the vessel, it appeared to me that Operator hit the port side of his vessel on either the south side of the Southern Boat Dock or the south side of the North Boat Dock while attempting to dock his vessel. His vessel had to be facing east when the collision occurred resulting in the crescent shaped punch in the Port side of the vessel.
