RedactedNarrative: Vessel #1 was travelling downstream on the Great Miami River between Holes Creek and the West Carrollton lowhead dam when Vessel #1 entered a right-hand bend in the river at a high rate of speed while simultaneously suffering a catastrophic failure of the power steering system.  The power steering system failure resulted in Vessel #1 turning abruptly and ejecting the Operator from the watercraft.  The Operator was wearing the engine cut-off cord/switch, which performed successfully; the Operator was not wearing a life jacket at the time of the incident.
