At Approximately 530 on 06242023 two jet ski's collided at approximate grid coordinate N 29.8807676°, W -095.0960513 located on the San Jacinto River, Harris County, Texas, just southeast of Magnolia Gardens located at 18041 Riverside St, Houston, Texas 77044. Vessel (1) 2013 Gray/Silver Yamaha rental jet ski  operated by O1 with passenger was traveling south at approximate speed 10 MPH. Vessel (2) 2020 Black/Blue/Turquoise Kawasaki Jet ski, operated by O2 with passenger was traveling west at approximate speed 20 to 40 MPH. 

As Vessel 2 headed west it violated the 50-foot rule by passing within 2 feet of an island with vegetation on its starboard side at greater than headway speed, which incidentally also blocked the operator and passengers view of vessel 1 traveling south. As vessel 2 got to the end of the island vessel 1 was now directly in front of Vessel 2. Vessel 1 was the stand on vessel and vessel 2 was the give way vessel, which would require Vessel 2 to alter speed and/or direction to avoid Vessel 1. Vessel 2 attempted to turn starboard to avoid Vessel 1, but the speed and distance proximity to Vessel 1 was too great resulting in Vessel 2 hitting Vessel 1 on the port side at an approximate 310 degree angle overriding Vessel 1 and striking the passenger of Vessel 1 causing the passenger to eject into the water. 
Personal Floatation Devices (inherently Buoyant) were worn by all operators and passengers. 
Vessel 1 sustained a cracked side railing on the port side approximately 12 inches in length estimated 500$ worth of damage. 
Vessel 2 sustained transfer marks and scrapes to the bottom side of the hull estimated damage 500$. 
The passenger of Vessel 1 was taken to HCA Houston ER (9711 N Sam Houston Pkwy E, Humble, Texas 77396). Passenger of Vessel 1 sustained a contusion to the abdomen, broken rib on the left side, small laceration to the left ankle, and severe swelling to the left leg and ankle. 
No other injuries were reported. 
Operator of Vessel 2 was issued a citation for violation of the 50-foot rule.
