RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 was traveling south from Sandy Bay at a cruising speed. A male passenger voluntarily jumped off mid-ship of vessel 1. Vessel 1 turned to the port side to retrieve the passenger. Vessel 2 was initially traveling south, closer to the middle of the lake at a faster speed than cruising. Vessel 2 made a turn to the starboard side in an attempt to return to the NYS boat launch an the north end of the lake. While turning  vessel 2 passed V1 port side to port side and observed what he believed to be a log in the water. V2 made an evasive maneuver to the starboard side and struck the object in quadrant "c" on the underside of V2. It was determined that the object was the passenger from V1 and that he had been fatally struck.
