Arrived at the scene at 1600 hours. Talked with  one of the occupants about what happened.

When they hit the stump, which struck the starboard side of the PWC, it caused the PWC to turn violently, throwing all three off the vessel. occupant was able to grab son and take him to the nearby sand bar, then go back and get operator and bring him to the sand bar. Someone on the sand bar then escorted them all back to the boat ramp. Operator was able to tell me that he was struck by the handlebars and side of the steering column when he was ejected. No one else was struck by anything, and Operator was the only one with serious injuries.
