good thing a boaters license says you are a boater

(don't know if the jet ski driver had one or not)

People in boats think they are immune from injury in a collision with a jet ski, nothing could be further from the truth. Most jet skis weigh well over 500 pounds and are very strongly constructed. At speed it could easily go through a boat, or in this case, up and over the boat. So be careful out there.

That said, it looks as though the boat wasn't at fault from the description.
