RedactedNarrative: On June 22, 2018 at approximately 6:00 p.m. vessel 1, a 20' MasterCraft (LA7547GG) was involved in a boating incident on False River near Oscar.  Vessel 1 was occupied by the operator and four passengers and pulling one skier.  The skier was holding the handle of a 50 ft Airhead ski rope in an attempt to get up onto his wakeboard when he fell.  
  
  When Wakeboarder fell, the stretching of the ski rope caused the rope to rapidly retract back towards the vessel.  The handle of the ski rope then struck Operator in the back of her head.  The force of the handle striking Operator' head caused a small laceration.  Passengers in the vessel immediately applied pressure to the wound.  
  
  Once being notified of the situation, vessel 1 followed us to "The Sandbar" where Operator could receive medical care.  Acadian Ambulance Service EMT's treated Operator on scene for her injury.  The laceration was small in size and was no longer bleeding.  Therefore, no further treatment was necessary.  The vessel was adequately equipped with PFD's but none were being used.  Wakeboarder was wearing a proper fitting PFD while on the wakeboard.
