RedactedNarrative: A rental PWC was being operated by an adult female and had a juvenile male occupant onboard.  The operator was following another PWC that was being operated by an individual that worked for the rental company.  As the PWC's exited a restricted area, the adult female began to accelerate.  Due to the females inattention, she struck a channel marker making contact with the PWC's port bow.  The occupant and operator managed to stay onboard the PWC and did not sustain any injuries.  The employee of the rental company then escorted them back to the marina.
