RedactedNarrative: On July 17th, 2021, Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission was dispatched to a single vessel boating accident on the St. John's River involving subject's who were ejected and one that was struck by the vessel's prop.
  OP1 was operating the vessel (Vessel 1) westbound at approximately 20 mph on the St. John's River. A larger vessel heading the opposite direction went by them and produced a large wake. Vessel 1 hit the wake on the port side, causing the occupants to shift to the starboard side. When this occurred, the vessel rolled to it's starboard side and the occupants were ejected into the water. No killswitch lanyard was worn, so the vessel continued under power circling to it's starboard side, eventually striking OP1 with the prop. 
  A good samaritan on another vessel observed what happened and picked up the occupants of Vessel 1. OP1 called his father using the good samaritan's phone because he was also out on the river that day. His father then picked him up and took him to the Jolly Gator Fish Camp where deputies and EMS were waiting for them. OP1 was then transported to Central Florida Regional Hospital in Sanford by EMS. He sustained several lacerations to his neck, left arm, right leg and the left side of his chest. He received several stitches and staples for his injuries and was later discharged. 
  Owner stated he stayed behind with the vessel since it was still under power and circling in the middle of the river. He also stated, shortly after the accident occurred his friend showed up on a PWC and was able to shut the motor off on Vessel 1. Vessel 1 did not incur any damages, and the other occupants onboard did not have any injuries. OP1 was transported to Central Florida Regional Medical Center located in Sanford where he was treated for several lacerations on his neck, left arm, left side of his chest and right leg. He received several stitches and staples for his wounds. He was later discharged and is back at home recovering.
