This would be the second such incident in 2 weeks. Passengers on the pontoon fall off the front to of the boat then get run over. Only takes a second to cover that much ground at speed. When on a pontoon underway make sure everyone is behind the gate..
If I operate a boat I need to take a boating course. Do people who rent boats / wave runners do they any education or training on how to operate a water vehicle?
I agree with all the comments above relating to rental boats however I haven't seen any confirmation that this was a rental boat that the child fell from
I'm sorry to the family praying for you. Hurts my heart.
