Wow ... this is the stuff nightmares are made of. If the bow is up, even just a little, you are going too fast!

Thank God it was only surface abrasions and not deep scratches. I hope she heals quickly. Still, that sort of injury can easily become infected and itch like the dickens.

Several years back, one of my charter clients ran over a German tourist with a dinghy (speeding) in an anchorage and seriously injured him with the prop. Like the nice person my client was, he tried to run and take his private plane to get out of the BVI. Happily, he and his exceptionally rude girlfriend were caught before they made it out of the country. I was able to warn my client not to try to leave the country (by phone) because I had already told the police they arrived by private plane and his plane was under surveillance. With no other option, he turned himself in.

Such a lovely couple. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/cloud.gif" alt="" />
