RedactedNarrative: Vessel and Operator #1 were traveling south on Logan Martin Lake pulling two skiers on an innertube. The innertubers fell off the innertube and vessel stopped and circled back to pick up the innertubers and get them back on the innertube. 
  
  The victim, innertuber #1, began swimming towards the boat because she did not want to innertube anymore, while innertuber #2 swam back to the innertube. As innertuber #1 approached vessel #1, the motor was still running and the propeller was still spinning. Innertuber #1 began attempting to climb onto the boat, at which time she was sucked from force into the path of the spinning propeller and both of her legs were struck multiple times. 
  
  The operator then reached out of the vessel and lifted innertuber #1 into the boat and immediately used life jackets on the boat to make tourniquets around the injuries. Operator #1 then drove the boat back to the pier of the residence they were staying at, 911 was called and medics arrived and innertuber #1 was transported by helicopter to Children''s Hospital in Birmingham, AL. 
  
  Trooper was called and traveled to Children's Hospital, while Cpl. traveled to the residence and gathered operator and vessel information. The operator stated that the innertubers fell off and he circled around to pick them up and  thought both intertubers were going to continue riding and did not realize innertuber #1 was making her way to re-board the vessel and that is why he didn''t shut the engine off. The operator stated that once he realized innertuber #1 was re-boarding it was too late to keep her out of the propeller. innertuber #1 was immediately put into Xray and then surgery upon arriving at the hospital and was unavailable to give a statement. Innertuber #2 stated that after her and innertuber #1 flipped off of the innertube the boat turned around and she swam towards it. The next thing innertuber #2 remembers is hearing innertuber #1 start to scream and saw her under the boat, and then saw the operator immediately pull her out of the water.
