RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1, with seven persons on board and three additional persons being towed on a tube, was driving under the Turnpike Bridge.  At the time of the incident, the Operator of Vessel 1 was allowing one of the 7-year old Occupants to "play drive" with the 7-year old on his lap (the Operator stated that his hand was still on the wheel and he was still in control of Vessel 1).  The Operator observed that Vessel 1 was too close to the bridge piling and steered slightly to port to avoid the piling; due to this action, the tube being pulled veered to starboard , striking the other bridge piling and injuring two of the tube Occupants.  All parties on the tube were brought back on board Vessel 1, transported to the ramp, and then taken to Riverfront Maumee Hospital for medical care.
