On 4-1-23 at about 16:10, I Officer was patrolling Lake Austin when we received a call regarding a boat crash. The caller stated an adult female smashed her hand between two boats at a dock. We arrived at the area with medics to render aid and gather information about the incident. The driver of Vessel #1 said they were coming into the dock to park the boat after being out a few hours but was having problems getting his boat in the slip. After he missed his dock space, he attempted to dock again but his boat got too close to another parked unoccupied boat (Vessel #2). 

When the right rear of his boat was about to impact the center rear of the parked boat his adult daughter put her hand out to stop the boats from crashing. The female's right arm got caught in between the two boats and was crushed by the impact.

 It was later determined her injuries were not life threatening and she had a possible broken right wrist with lacerations. EMS ambulance arrived a short time later and transported the female victim to Dell Seton Hospital. She was later identified. We then spoke to the boat driver involved in the crash. He was Injured's father. 

After the boat crash O1 said his family and other people on the shore assisted her off the boat and took her on land to wait for emergency teams. Injured's boat was a new Black and Gray Super Air Nautique with temp paper tag It did not have a permanent registration issued yet. It showed to have minor scratches and rub marks on the right side of the boat. The parked boat (Vessel #2} was on a boat lift above the water line. It showed to be a Gray and Yellow Super Air Nautique with Texas boat registration. It had minor scratches and rub marks on the rear of the boat. The owner of this parked boat was not present.
