MEREDITH, N.H. (AP) A Derry man suffered serious cuts after being hit by a boat propeller while water skiing on Lake Winnipesaukee.

The state Marine Patrol said Robert Wilson, 42, was injured while attempting to pull himself onto a platform at the rear of a boat that had been pulling him Thursday afternoon.

He suffered several cuts. The Marine Patrol said the injuries didn't appear to be life-threatening.

Officers said the engine was running and the boat was in gear as Wilson attempted to climb aboard.

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

Hellooooooooooooooooooo! :confused:

Live and learn, I guess...It's like laying down in front of a moving car...why? :rolleyes: :confused:

Yes officer, we were testing the Cattle Gaurd on that train, when it hit us and removed all our arms & legs..... this is about a smart.....shut it off before picking anyone up!!!!

The same yahoo most likely will attempt to clean out the exit chute of his lawnmower while it is running:eek:

Hey , McFly:confused: :confused: :confused: Duh

On a serious note, I catch many people doing this in small ski boats. Oncve I was being pulled by a friend of a friend sking. Once we stopped and I was swiming to the boat, the ass put in reverse at me so I wouldn't have to swim 10 feet. I told her to stop, and then corrected her "nicely" She then refused to turn the motor off in order for me to board:mad: I sat in the water for a min or so until she gave in.

Seriously, please inform these people of their mistakes if you see it happen. Can easily be a bad mistake.

WILL:eek:

Wouldn't it be cool if stupidity was painful? Then it would hurt before some else got hurt.

DUUUUURRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
WATERBOY!!!:confused: :confused:

Hey Buddy,here's your sign!

I got one for ya...........I beleive I was about 13 or so......a good friend of mine's sister went out on a ski boat with a bunch of guys and of course they were all drinking and having a good time.....well that was until my buddies sister decided to "fall" off the front of the boat......

Now.....we have all done this...ya know drink a little too much and slip right off into the water........ONLY difference is tha boat is always parked and definitly not running.......:rolleyes: ...well not in this case......

The driver was goofin off and choose to chop the throttle and stop all of a sudden......and over goes my frineds sister and right under the boat.....yup right under the boat.....with the damn thing running.......well obviously GOD was not done with her yet and chose to spare her life.......but the bad part is the prop hit her face......imagine this......try taking a prop and holding it up to your face right between your eyebrows and following down the nose and out to the cheek......rather nasty site:( ......to say the least.......you could almost see the shape of the blade in her face.....EWWWWW......Lots and lots of surgeries later she had nothing left but a nice scar about 6 inches long......and talk about a nasty bruise for the longest time.........all this for an afternoon of drinking and boating.......I never understand this.......:confused:
