RedactedNarrative: On 7-21-2012 at approximately 1300hrs was operating a PWC (FL 4312PH) rented from Baywatch Watersports in upper Tampa Bay. Operator was cruising near the Howard Franklin Bridge. Operator was jumping waves near the bridge. As Operator landed from a wave he coasted with the wave and noticed he was about to hit the Howard Franklin Bridge and jumped off. As he jumped off the PWC he hit a piling from the bridge and recieved minor cuts on his hand and arm and a laceration on his left leg. Operator refused any and all first aid. The PWC coasted toward the bridge and struck another piling causing damage to the front of the PWC.
  
  Operator swam to the PWC and tried to start it but it would not start. Operators friend came over to assist but still could not get it started so he took him on his PWC and they returned to the rental facility and advised them of the accident.
