On 10/02/10 at 3:00 PM on Whitney Lake at Plowman Park cove three jet boats lined up for a contest of speed. Upon acceleration one boat turned sharp to the right ejecting the driver from the boat into the water. It appears that the rear of the boat could not handle the horsepower of the engine destroying the transom and rear of boat. The engine sank to the lake bottom. The driver was transported to Harris Hospital with head, back and shoulder injuries.

Investigator from TPWD completed the report.
