On 12/22/13, a rented PWC (V1 ) with two subjects was operating in the Roberts Bay ski area in Venice, Florida.  At approximately 1100 hours, the operator of V1 turned hard to port, ejecting the occupant into the water, causing the occupant to sustain injuries to her right arm.  She was placed on a Venice Police vessel and taken back to the livery.  From there, she was transported to Venice Regional Medical Center where she was given treatment.  I arrived at the hospital and took a statement from the operator and then left to get a statement from the VPD officer and the PWC rental guide who was with them.  The operator was then given a citation for careless operation of a vessel.; victimLikely distal radial fracture of right wrist. Internal shoulder injury (possible ligament damage) Chest contusion.
