RedactedNarrative: Operator #1 stated to the effect: It was my first time driving a jet ski. I was in the buoys with my friends and they all stopped to take pictures. I tried to turn and slow down and I hit Operator2' jet ski. We both flew off and I swam to Operator2 and put him on my jet ski because I knew he was hurt. 
  
  Operator #2 was not able to provide a statement as he was taken to AtlantiCare after sustaining a leg injury and laceration.
  
  Investigation on scene revealed: Vessel #1 and Vessel #2 were both 2021 Yamaha Personal Watercrafts (PWC) rented from Wave Runner Rentals, Atlantic City, Atlantic County. Both Vessel #1 and Vessel #2 were operated inside of the Rental Zone specified for this company in safe navigable waters inside Great Thorofare. 
  
  It was learned after speaking with Operator #1 and Wave Runner Rental's manager that both parties involved had minimal maritime or vessel operating experience. Vessel #1 was traveling southeast in Great Thorofare in the direct path of vessel #2 which was stopped and drifting. Operator #1 attempted to turn left and let off of the throttle and as a result lost directional control of the vessel, causing Vessel #1 to strike Vessel #2 on the port stern.
  
  As a result of the impact, Operator #1 and Operator #2 were ejected from their vessel off of the starboard side. Operator #1 did not report or sustain any injuries. Operator #2 sustained a leg injury, and leg laceration. Both operators utilized Personal Floatation Devices (PFD's) and safety lanyards and both vessels came to an uncontrolled rest inside Great Thorofare. After Operator #1 and Operator #2 were  recovered from the water, they were taken back to All Marine Center, where the PWC's for Wave Runner Rentals are stored. Vessel #1 sustained minor fiberglass damage to the bow portion of the keel. Vessel #2 sustained major damage to the fiberglass on the port stern, seat, and steering column. Operator #2 was transported to Atlantic Regional Medical Center by AtlantiCare EMS Personnel. Operator #1 is primarily at fault in this investigation as Operator #1 failed to utilize "Safe Speed" as defined in the U.S. Coast Guard's "Rules of the Road".
