ANNAPOLIS, M.D. — A charter fishing boat ended up on top of a sailboat when the two vessels collided in the Chesapeake Bay off Thomas Point around noon Friday.

Maryland Natural Resources Police Spokeswoman Candy Thomson told Boston 25 News a 37-foot charter fishing boat, "Hunter," owned by Chesapeake Bay Charter Services of Kent Island, struck a J105 sailboat owned by Chesapeake Boating Services of Annapolis.

No one suffered serious injuries.

The Coast Guard will lead the investigation because the collision involved a commerical boat.
