Vessel 1 turned into a beach area and hit throttle in order to turn the jet boat.  Operator claims throttle cable came off and hung open.  Operator then shut off motor and hit back of vessel 2 that was beached.  Vessel 1 was going fast enough that the vessel stopped with the front of vessel 1 on top of vessel 2 speaker bar.  Vessel 2 was beached with no one operating.  The two people inside vessel 2 were seriously injured.  One subject sustained a broken arm and the other a head concussion.  The throttle cable was off vessel 1 motor when I inspected it after the accident.  Reverse still worked on the vessel.  The Driver of Vessel 1 was arrested for Boating While Intoxicated.

Officer Completed the report.
