V1 was stopped in the SW portion of Big Lake Santa Fe attempting to untangle a ski rope that had wrapped around the prop while cruising.  V2 was cruising slightly off plain with the bow elevated.  V1 noticed V2 heading in their direction as it appeared V2 didn't see V1.  V2 stated he was cruising slighlty off plain and did not see V1 until the last second.  V2 then turned noticed V1 and made a sharp left hand turn.  V2 struck the bow of V1 with it's starboard side causing damage to both vessels. V1 sustained minor gel coat and rub rail damage to the bow.  V2 sustained significant fiberglass damage to the starboad side towards the front of the vessel, as well as fiberglass damage to the rear starboard portion of the vessel.  V2 then left the scene without stopping.  V1 made it back to the boat ramp safely where the owner/operator of V2 made contact with him and stated he didn't see V1 and returned to his dock because he didn't know the extent of the damage to his vessel and didn't want to risk taking on water.
