RedactedNarrative: At approximately 1310, August 9, 2020, V1 was cruising north along the eastern bank of the Coosa River channel of Lake Jordan.  
  
  V1 had a tube in tow with 2 occupants.  The operator of V1 stated he was three or four vessels abreast in the channel when he noted his boat "slid" toward a pier.  Operator also stated he observed the towed tube closer to V1 than he anticipated.  
  
  In a correcting maneuver, Operator turned V1 away from the pier (west), from which he stated was 10-15 yards away.  V1 struck the pier with the rear starboard side pontoon and as a result, the tube in tow contacted the pier.  The occupants of the tube were injured beyond first aid and transported to local hospitals.  An 8 year old male was taken to Children''s Hospital in Birmingham, AL and a 32 year old female was taken to UAB Trauma Center in Birmingham, AL.
