Operator of vessel #1 (PWC) and passenger were pulling a tube with four individuals on board.  The driver was attempting to spin the tube while turning and hit their own wake causing the passenger to be thrown into the water.  The rope between the tube and PWC caught under the victim's neck causing him to sustain a large laceration across his lower jaw area and extending to his left and right cheek area. Victim was able to get back onto the PWC and get to shore where first aid was administered and he was transferred to the hospital in Alpena for treatment.  No other injuries were reported, and no damages to vessel or equipment.
