  On 09/02/2019, at about 08:30 p.m., these two vessels were cruising on Puget Sound in an area near the Port of Edmonds Ferry Terminal, located near Edmonds, WA in Snohomish county.
  
  The Operator of V1 reported that he was under way heading southbound, nearing the Port of Edmonds, when he suddenly saw the other boat (V2).  He wasn’t sure which direction V2 was heading as he only saw them for a moment before the collision.  The starboard side of V1’s bow collided with the starboard side of V2’s stern.  
  
  According to the Operator of V2 he and a of couple friends had been fishing/crabbing.  He had just dropped one of the friends off at the Edmonds Marina.  After leaving the marina they idled waiting for the ferry to depart.  When clear, he accelerated to a slow plane, 20-22 mph.  It was fairly dark and he had navigation lights and a forward spotlight on.  
  
  Operator2 saw a light in the distance and adjusted his course to keep clear.  He lost sight for a moment and then he noticed the light was closer so he turned left.  Suddenly a shape appeared next to him.  He heard a loud bang and felt a hard jolt.  His engine died and the other boat (V1) continued on without stopping.  Operator2 radioed for help.
