  According to all persons on board, vessel one, a white in color Pro-Line, was traveling west/southwest (240) in the Gulf of Mexico, approximately 22 miles west/southwest of the Venice Inlet. All on board stated that, while doing so, vessel one struck a large wave at approximately 1000 hours.  As a result of vessel one striking a large wave, the injured occupant was thrown upward and then struck, while still in a seated position, the vessel after landing.  This action, in turn, caused an injury to the occupant's back.  All on board stated that they then traveled north/northeast for approximately four hours in rough conditions to return to Venice.  At 1400 hours, all on board met Sarasota County Fire/Rescue at the Venice Ave Boat Ramp, located at 303 E Venice Ave., in Venice.  Shortly thereafter, the injured occupant was transported to the Venice Regional Medical Center.
