TWO INDIVIDUALS LAUNCHED TWO PWCS FROM THE COINJOCK AREA OF THE INTERCOASTAL WATERWAY TO TEST AS A CONDITION OF PURCHASE.  THE INDIVIDUALS TRAVELED IN A SOUTHWESTERLY DIRECTION DOWN THE INTERCOASTAL WATERWAY FROM COINJOCK TOWARD NORTH RIVER.  THE INDIVIDUALS DROVE AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED ON THE INTERCOASTAL WATERWAY.  AS THEY APPROACHED THE JUNCTION OF THE INTERCOSTAL WATERWAY AND NORTH RIVER THE TWO PWCS WERE IN LINE WITH ONE ANOTHER.  THE PWC IN THE FRONT, QUICKLY AND ABRUPTLY, SPUN AROUND.  THE FOLLOWING PWC OPERATOR DID NOT HAVE TIME TO REACT BEFORE COLLIDING, HEAD ON, WITH THE PWC AND OPERATOR THAT HAD SPUN AROUND.

IT WAS NOT APPARENT THAT DRUGS OR ALCOHOL WERE INVOLVED IN THIS ACCIDENT.  BOTH OPERATORS WERE WEARING PFDS.  THERE ARE NO CHARGES AT THIS TIME.
