Driving a boat with a skier or tuber

Had the scare of our lives when we took our grandson tubing. Another boat was out there with a skier behind it. The driver came within 50 feet of my grandson who had fallen off the tube. The driver was watching his skier and not where he was going. We rushed back to my grandsin yelling and blowing the horn at the other driver to stop. He finally saw us and stopped less then 50 ' from my grandson. Please make sure that when you drive your boat, you observe all the rules and keep your eyes out. Very scary and ruined our day. And yes my grandson was slapping the water to let others know he was there. Please be careful out there.
