  On 07/13/2014, at about 4:45 p.m., this vessel was cruising on Puget Sound 1/4 mile off Robinson Point (Marine Area 11) located near Des Moines WA in King county. 
  
  According to the Operator, he was operating the vessel on plane going about 25 knots. His route was from the Des Moines Marina towards Vashon. The water was good and the ride was smooth and comfortable during the crossing. As they approached within 1/4 mile of the Vashon shore, they hit an unusual wave. When Operator1 saw the wave he tried to slow down, the boat hit hard tossing his passengers about the boat. 
  
  Victim was seated in the front port seat, she was the only one to suffer injuries. Operator1 noted the seat Victim was sitting in was not padded so when she hit the seat there was only the hard fiberglass seat to break her fall. Operator1 called 911 to report the incident. They met the Des Moines Fire Department at the Des Moines Marina where they treated and transported Victim. She required surgery to repair broken and damaged areas of her body (back).
