That's what I did too! Same thing happened to me a few years ago I was riding my stand up ski and watched a guy get ejected in a runabout and was circling him to and I jumped in his boat from my ski. So scary! I can't imagine doin that with a powerboat. Glad everyone is ok!

Sounds like the driver/occupants were damn lucky, many times over.
Lanyards save lives folks.
And apparently so does a brave soul willing to tear up his own gear to save your life. I wonder what kind of insurance mess that will cause.
I'd love to know how he rammed the boat to stop it. I'm curious if he may have aimed for it and jumped aboard, or had someone jump at the right moment.
