RedactedNarrative: Registered owner/reporting party's vessel was struck and damaged by another, unknown vessel.  Time of the incident is also unknown, as the owner was in Gainesville, FL and noticed the damage upon his return.
  Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission, responded on 15 May, 2022 at approximately 1145 hours  to a delayed report of a boating accident.  We were in uniforms, in a marked patrol vessel, and on State water patrol in Monroe County, Florida. 
  At approximately 1155 hours we arrived on-scene at the struck vessel (V-1 for reporting purposes) in Blackwater Sound, Key Largo, FL.  V-1 is a 47' 1971 Trimaran.
  	Owner called and left voice mail messages on my phone 10 and 11 May; he and I spoke on 12 May to arrange meeting.  Owner had been in Gainesville, FL and when he returned he saw the damage to his vessel.  Owner was aware that a PWC (Jet Ski) accident had occurred in the vicinity of Blackwater Sound approximately 30 April, 2022, and the operator and occupant of the PWC were transported to the hospital from Blackwater Marina.  Owner assumed the PWC struck his vessel and took photographs of the damage.  
  	After I saw the damage to Owner’s vessel and compared the photographs of the PWC, I conclude the two incidents are unrelated.  Owner vessel sustained significant damage from a collision with an unknown vessel at an unknown time.  His vessel is uninsured and serves as his primary residence. 
  	All events occurred in Monroe County, State of Florida.  Body Worn Camera video footage is available.
  	For the purpose of this report, the vessel is listed as V-1 even though it was the struck vessel.
