The following accident occurred on August 8, 2010 at approximately 1640 hours.

The operator of vessel I was towing a single tube with two tubers.  He noticed another vessel approaching and so he turned the boat to travel in the opposite direction. Due to the turn, the tube hit a wake sideways which caused the tubers to bump heads.  One victim hit the other's head with her teeth, breaking two teeth and resulting in loss of consciousness. The other victim suffered a cut to the head.  As the operator returned to shore, another occupant called 911. The boat was met on shore by two ambulances which transported the victims to Brattleboro Memorial Hospital.
