VESSEL #1 WAS INBOUND ON THE MAURICE RIVER.  THE OPERATOR FAILED TO OBSERVE A WAKE AND WHEN HIS VESSEL STRUCK IT, THE VESSEL ROCKED VIOLENTLY
THROWING THE OPERATOR OFF.  THE OPERATOR STRUCK THE GUNNEL AND THEN THE VESSEL CIRCLED AND STRUCK HIM IN THE HEAD.  THE VESSEL WAS NOT RUNNING
AT THAT TIME BECAUSE THE OPERATOR WAS WEARING THE SAFETY LANYARD. 
THE OPERATOR SUFFERED RUPTURED DISKS AND WAS ABLE TO GRAB ONTO THE PWC , BUT UNABLE TO MOVE.
