Jet Ski Accident

Chip and Airwaves are correct. I never refer to my PWC as a jetski. A jetski was named that because it was originally a powered stand on "ski" device. They eventually evolved into the sit-down versions that we see today. PWC do not fit this discription at all. The generic term jetski should be used for the stand-up models in my opinion.

A friend of that Tuftonboro family told me yesterday that the collision happened on Lake Winnipesaukee: The collision was severe enough that the victim, in Worcester, had his right leg amputated below the knee.

One of you is apparently confused.

The collision did indeed take place on Lake Wentworth, specifically it was offshore of the Warren Sands Road area.
