V1 was lowering its sails and attempting to start its engine. V2 was secured to the floating dock at the Conch House Marina. V1 was unable to start its engine and hit the starboard stern of V2 causing the stern rails to bend over pulling up portions of the stern deck. V1 was towed back to its mooring ball by tow boat us.

While OP1 dropped his sail, he began to attempt to start his engine. The engine would not start, and as OP1 continued to crank it, he noticed that he was getting closer to the vessel 2. OP1 attempted to turn hard to port to avoid collision but was unsuccessful. The bow of OP1 collided with the port stern of V2 and bent the aft railing from the deck. OP1 came to rest and did not collide with any other vessel in the marina. Sea Tow was called and towed OP1 back to his mooring ball.
