V91.2 Fall due to collision between watercraft and other watercraft or other object (also a header)
V91.3 Hit or struck by falling object due to accident to watercraft (also a header)
V91.8 Other injury due to other accident to watercraft (also a header)

This code requires a seventh character. See the rule below.
