Vessel 1 was traveling south on Ski Road Channel on Lake Bistineau.  Vessel 1 hydraulics went out, and the vessel turned sharp to the port side.  The vessel could not steer or the throttle be pulled back.  

Vessel 1 then impacted a tree on the port side glancing off and coming to rest between two trees.  When vessel 1 came to a sudden stop the passenger in the vessel was ejected over the starboard bow.  The occupants were not wearing PFD's at the time of the incident.
