RedactedNarrative: On September 3rd, 2022, a single vessel incident occurred at the Sanibel Causeway beach in Lee County, Florida. V1, a 11’ Yamaha PWC was being operated by OP1 with one passenger.
  OP1 has never operated a PWC before the incident. OP1 left the Sanibel Causeway beach and headed north in San Carlos By. OP1 operated V1 approximately a half mile off the beach, did a quick turn, then started returning to shore. V1 approached the shore at a high rate of speed. Due to operator inexperience, OP1 thought he was depressing a break rather than the throttle. Victim was sitting in a chair on the Sanibel Causeway beach. V1 ramped up the beach and the bow/keel struck victim in the face. 
  FWC responded to the hospital and was advised victim’s injuries consisted of a laceration to her face with two loose teeth. She also had a contusion to her left hip and elbow. None of the injures constituted serious bodily injury.

While speaking with OP1, FWC detected an odor of an alcoholic beverage coming from OP1. FWC had OP1 perform the seated SFST’s while they were translated by the Lee County Deputy. At the conclusion of the tasks, FWC asked OP1 if he would consent to a voluntary blood draw, OP1 agreed.
