RedactedNarrative: Victim was seated at the front of the boat facing the rear and Operator1 was operating the vessel. The vessel was traveling in Bow Legs cut that goes through Peterson Key Bank at approximately 25 to 35 miles per hour. The operator lost sight of the channel marker due to Occupant blocking his view. When Operator1 saw the marker he made a sharp turn to the right to attempt to miss it. The port bow struck the channel marker ejecting both passengers from the vessel. The vessel struck red Marker # 94 on its left side approximately 2 feet from the bow. Both people on board were ejected from the vessel. While being ejected Occupant's right leg impacted something. It was later x-rayed and found to be broken. The vessel continued after the collision and ended up doing left handed circles at a high rate of speed. A good Samaritan vessel picked up the occupants and called for help. 
  
  The first Monroe county vessel that arrived on scene took the 2 victims aboard his vessel, and proceeded to shore. The second Monroe County vessel arrived and attempted to stop the vessel, with no success. I arrived and also attempted to stop the vessel using a large floating net. I made 3 attempts to put the net in the path of the vessel to tangle the propeller with no success. At 1413 Officer arrived and I boarded his vessel with the net. Officer got ahead of the vessel and I deployed the net. On the 2nd or third attempt we were successful in stopping the vessel without any further damage.
