This is really sad. Every time I get in my Seadoo speedster (boat, not PWC) I put on my life vest even though it's not legally required. I figure if I get thrown out of the boat I'll probably hit hard enough to possibly be temporarily unconscious and drown. It sounds like this would be good practice for hunters and their dogs as well. Drowning is a pretty horrific way to go. I feel bad for everyone involved.
