RedactedNarrative: On 8-1-15 Operator1 was operating a PWC in Bayou Grosse Tete. He had 1 passenger onboard who was acting as an observer and he was pulling a tube occupied by 3 boys. All 5 individuals were wearing type III PFD's and the safety lanyard was in use. operator attempted a starboard turn in order to avoid a large piece of driftwood. Operator1 began the turn well in advance of the debris, but the weight of the 3 boys on the tube created enough centrifugal force that the PWC was unable to complete the turn. This caused the boys onboard the tube to strike the drift. All three boys suffered abrasions and one also suffered a brief loss of consciousness. All three boys refused EMS/ambulance service. No alcohol/drug use was observed. The PWC was powered by 110 horsepower Seadoo jet drive engine. All 5 individuals were wearing type III PFDs.
