RedactedNarrative: Contacted by husband of injured #1 to see if a BAR had been turned in from an accident that occurred on 7-13-2019.  KDFWR Law Enforcement had not received a report on 7-18-2019 when contacted.  I initiated this BAR on 7-18-2019.  Vessel 1 operator stated he contacted KSP on morning of 7-14-2019 and was told that since 1 vessel was involved, a BAR was not needed.
  
  According to witnesses and vessel #1 operator, they were traveling past Kuttawa Marina in the main channel and headed west towards Green Turtle Bay around 18-23 mph.  Vessel traffic was very heavy and a large vessel threw a big wake that caused vessel #1 to become partially airborne and causing some occupants to fall into floor and into steering console.  Injured #1 was ejected from front seat and landed on floor.  Injured #1 was transported by POV to Lourdes in Paducah and suffered a fracture of T11 Vertebra.  Injured #2 was thrown into steering console and complained of pain from previous surgery and injury sites.  Injured #2 was transported by POV later that week to local physicians.
  
  Vessel #1 operator/owner lives out of state and is not coming back for awhile.  E-mailed statements from operator and spouse are included.
