RedactedNarrative: Victim was seated in the left rear of V1.  A large ski tube, which was not secured, was laying on the back of the boat behind the victim.  There were high winds and large wakes on the lake during the time of this accident.  Operator was getting up to cruising speed when the ski tube blew out of V1.  The ski rope wrapped around the victim's legs and neck, jerking him out of V1.  V1's prop cut the rope in two (which probably saved the victim's life).  Victim was wearing a PFD.  He was transported to the emergency room where he was treated for severe rope burns on his neck and legs.
