Vessel A was towing a skier when said vessel struck a seawall and came to rest approximately 30 yards on the shore. Passenger three was ejected from the vessel upon impact with the seawall.
On 06/17/2010 around 1645 hours, RFC and I were at Old Salem Park working on a patrol boat when we received a call from Putnam County Sheriff's Office in reference to a boating incident Thunder Valley in Putnam County. When we arrived at the scene, we made contact with the operator of the vessel a passenger, and subject who was being towed on a wake board. We noted the vessel was approximatley 30 ft. from the seawall resting in a residential yard. RFC started working the scene and I went to the Putnam Co. Hospital to interview a third occupant of the vessel who was transported. Victim stated she was riding n the front deck and was thrown from the vessel when it hit the seawall. victim stated her neck was hurting and would provide a written statement to be picked up at a later day.I went back to the incident location and collected the statements from the operator and the other passenger. Operator stated she was distracted and was not aware that she was close to the seawall. operator stated she called 911 after the incident occurred. RFC issued a citation to operator for operating a vessel above idle speed within 100 feet of an improved shoreline.  I completed the boating incident report. We could not see any visible damage to the vessel.
