A witness observed WC #1 crash into a pontoon boat (WC #2) which was docked in the bay. The witness said WC #1 made several circles in the area with one of the boat occupants holding up a liquor bottle. The crash occurred shortly after, and the witness lost sight of WC #1.

Operator #1 stated he had lost control of the boat and struck the docked pontoon boat. WC #1's hull started to leak, and the Operator returned to the boat access. He was arrested for BWI. He said he was having trouble steering the boat and thought it was having throttle trouble. He thought he may have struck something in the water. He said he wasn't able to steer out of the way and then struck the back of the pontoon boat (WC #2)

The Owner of WC #2 heard the crash occur behind his residence and drove over to the public access. He was helping load up the watercraft when officers arrived.

Life jackets were not being worn. There were no injuries.
