We study the dynamics of the two-soliton interaction within the framework of a completely integrable model, namely, the Gardner equation with negative cubic nonlinearity, which admits the existence of a limiting soliton. The features of the soliton interaction with participation of a thick soliton are demonstrated. Special attention is paid to the nonlinear-interaction influence on the wave-field moments, which determine the skewness and the kurtosis in the theory of turbulence.
