RedactedNarrative: On 7/25/14 about 18:50pm, operator1 was operating the vessel on nantahala lake. Operator1 was part of a bass tournament which was just launching from rocky branch access. V1 occupant was a passenger in the boat with operator1. As operator1 headed left from rocky branch into the main channel, operator1 was heading in the direction where the nantahala river comes into the lake. Right near what is called jerrett creek, operator1 encountered waves from another boat. When operator1 stated he was running about 65 mph when he encountered the waves. As he entered the waves, he maneuvered to the left trying to get away from the waves. Operator1 stated he also started to trim the motor down as fast as possible. Operator1 said the waves seemed to him to be larger than any he had come across before. Operator1' boat hit the first wave causing the front of the boat to go higher than expected. Operator1 said the boat went into the air causing the back end of the boat to hit the top of the next wave. When the back end of the boat hit the next wave it caused the front of the boat to come down so hard that the port side noise of the vessel went under water. Operator1 was ejected from the boat on impact. V1 occupant landed in the center of the boat. Operator1 was wearing a life jacket and a lanyard attached to the kill switch. Upon ejection of operator1, the engine was cut off by the lanyard attached to the kill switch. The other boats that were following operator1 said that the waves caused many of the boats to go airborn. Operator1 was helped out of the water by other boaters. Operator1 was transported to murphy hospital. Operator1 has a broken pelvis and a compression of his l1. V1 occupant was not injured in this accident.
