Operator A  of vessel 1 left his dock and was operating at full speed when he noticed a line dragging in the water. He let go of the motor to reach for the line. The boat immediately turned hard to the right. He was thrown out of the boat. The boat began traveling in a tight circle. He swam to the boat and made several attempts to catch it. On the final attempt he grabbed the line that had been draging in the water and immediately slid down the length of the line and into the outboard. His shirt was caught in the propeller and caused the motor to stall. He received lacerations to his chest and upper pelvic area. He was then picked up from the water by a passing boater.
