Synopsis:
=========
On 06/02/2012 at approximately 1713 hours, I made contact with operator, who was operating a 2005 Yamaha PWC, and had cut his right hand on the right handlebar after the handle grip slipped off when he made a left hand turn in Thompson Bay just south of the no wake buoy line. 

Operator was operating a 2005 Yamaha PWC with occupant as a passenger.  Operator was proceeding south in Thompson Bay toward the "No Wake" buoy line. Operator just past south of the buoy line, increased his speed to 10+ mph, and made a sharp turn to his left (eastward) to turn the ski.  In the process of the turn, the right handle bar rubber grip slid off revealing sharp metal edges underneath.  Operator''s palm side of his right hand hit the sharp edge of the metal handle bar and was cut approximately 2" in length.  

Operator was taken to Lake Havasu Marina were he was transported to Lake Havasu Regional Medical via ambulance by River Medical.
