The operator of Vessel 1 placed the vessel in reverse to exit the dock at a speed greater than his ability allowed. Due to the speed, the operator over corrected his vessel causing the port stern to collide with a slip, jarring it loose. The operator then placed the vessel in forward, at a speed greater than that required to maintain steerage and headway, causing him to collide with the starboard side of Vessel 4. After the collision with Vessel 4, the starboard stern of Vessel 1 collided with the stern of Vessels 2 and 3. Additionally, the impact with Vessel 4 cause a chain reaction collision with Vessel 5. Vessel 5 struck a floating slip on its port side forcing the slip into the starboard side of Vessel 6. 
Vessel 1 sustained damage to the bow and starboard sides. Vessels 2 and 3 sustained damage to the stern. Vessel 4 sustained significant damage to the starboard stern and port sides. Vessel 5 sustained damage to boat the port and starboard side. Vessel 6 sustained damage to the starboard side.
