PWC VS LARGE CRUISER WAKE


AND THE WINNER IS - - 

This young man sustained severe facial injuries when his PWC  jumped the wake of a large cruiser with a passenger behind him,  went air-born, came down hard bow first, impact plus weight of passenger behind him, smashed his face in to handle bars, he was knocked off PWC & floating face down - - he was turned over by nearby PWC operator.   We arrived on scene followed by Water Patrol,  Fire & Rescue - we transported to ambulance and he was airlifted to hospital - He recovered, but required facial re-construction - very lucky boy - - - Remember, a PWC does NOT fly well and lands worse  -
