THE Marine Investigation Unit is investigating the circumstances around an accident between two jet skis at Safety Beach around 2pm on Saturday that left with one man in his 20s with serious lower body injuries.
The man was airlifted to the Alfred Hospital after the two jet skis allegedly collided around 2pm. The driver of a second jet ski, a woman in her 20s, was treated at the scene for a foot injury.
Police, including the water police, say they will be focussing heavily on water safety for the rest of summer to ensure people utilising boats and jet skis on the Mornington Peninsula are complying with speed and marine safety regulations.
