RedactedNarrative: On 8/8/20 at approximately 1125 I was dispatched to a propeller cut on Rockport Reservoir. When I arrived at the marina I grabbed medical supplies and started to head to my patrol boat to respond but was then told that the patient would be brought to the dock. I walked to the dock with my medical kit with a tourniquet and large trauma pad in hand. Dispatch then told me that the boat would not start so they could not bring the patient to the dock. Before I could walk over to my boat to respond dispatch then told me they had flagged another boat down to bring the patient to the dock. 
  
  When the boat with the patient arrived at the dock, I saw a teenager laying down on the back seat area with his left leg propped up on a woman's lap. The back of his leg above the knee had a towel and t-shirt pressed against it. I climbed into the boat to give medical care. The towel and t-shirt did not appear to have lots of blood on them so I asked to take a look at it. The propeller cut was large about 4 inches long and gaping open about 3 inches but was not bleeding very much, just a slow ooze. I could see it was deep enough to be at least into the fat layers. I applied a large trauma pad to the cut and used a roller gauze to apply pressure and secure it. There was another small cut to the same leg closer to the front side near the knee that was also not bleeding much.
  
  The patient Victim was conscious and alert. He was also still in a PFD. Once I had the propeller cut wrapped I took off his PFD and wrapped him in a blanket since he was shivering. I also placed him on the floor of the boat for comfort and to have his injured leg elevated.
  
  The woman who was holding his leg on her lap was his mother, Passenger 3. When I asked what happened she and Victim told me he had been water skiing. When he got cut when he was trying to climb back onto the swim deck. Passenger 3 said the boat was in neutral when Victim was climbing up but still got cut by the propeller. The boat was a rental from Marina at Rockport.
  
  After the ambulance crew took over medical care of Victim I spoke with the driver of the boat Operator. Operator is Victim's older step-brother. When I asked Operator what happened he said he put the boat into neutral and then Victim started climbing onto the swim deck and got cut by the propeller. I asked Operator how much boating experience he had. He said he had a lot of sailing and non-motorized experience but maybe 3 day/trips of experience with motor boats.
  
  After talking to Operator and getting a list of everyone on the boat, I went to the concessionaire dock where the Marina at Rockport keeps their rental boats. I had told the owner not to move/remove anything from the boat that the accident had occurred on. I inspected the boat for safety equipment. Then while the boat was tied to the dock, I had the concessionaire turn the boat on and shift it from neutral to forward gear to neutral, to reverse and back into neutral. Everything appeared to be in good working condition with the shifter. It did appear easy on the boat to "skip" neutral a little while still having the boat at a slow idle speed.
