2/27/17 Cruise Jet Ski Accident- Theresa Dvorocsik

The students who had extensive experience operating personal watercraft, decided to spend some time exploring the harbor just outside the port. Shortly after taking off, when the pair reached the mouth of the harbor, they lost control of the jet ski and fell off, into the water. At the same time, the ship Carnival Magic had just left port and began to exit the harbor, heading toward the women. Although they were wearing life jackets, they scrambled unsuccessfully to climb back on the jet ski as the towering 10-story, 1,004-foot-long vessel pushed toward them at about 7 mph, well within harbor rules.
This is very scary. There should be more rules and more precautions put into place so less people get injured.

  3. Did they die? There need to be better ways to maneuver in water outside of your vehicle.
