RedactedNarrative: On July 3, 2020 at approximately 17:40 hours, I, Corporal with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources - Law Enforcement Division (DNR LED), was notified by Sgt., also with DNR LED, of a boating incident that occurred at Gainesville Marina on Lake Lanier.  
  
  	I responded to the boat ramp at Gainesville Marina where I was met by vessel operators, and several witnesses.  Operator2 said that he launched V2 at the boat ramp and was attempting to dock in the second space from the end of the courtesy docks at Gainesville Marina.  At the same time, Operator1 said he was attempting to dock V1 on the outside of the last space on the same dock.  Operator1 said that as he was docking, he realized he needed to move his stored wake boards in order to dock and accidentally bumped the throttle in reverse.  The starboard side of the swim platform of V1 struck the portside of the stern of V2.  Operator2 said he retrailered V2 because it was taking on water.  
  
  V1 did not have any visible damage and Operator1 said there was no damage to V1.  V2 had visible damage to the fiberglass on the starboard stern.  Operator2 estimated damage at $2000.00.
  
  Operator1, Operator2, and three witnesses provided statements confirming the recount of the incident.  Statements are attached.
  
  No charges filed.
