Made it out Thu and Fri but heard a guy got killed on Jet Ski somewhere in vicinity of either Hemlock or maybe Cedar......anyone got the update on what happened? I heard anchor line......
 
That doesn't sound good! My intial thought is catching the anchor line in the neck area. Whether thru stupidity or not, there are some grieving family and friends.
 
Any jet ski going fast near a anchor line is a accident waiting to happen.
 
That's how I understood it, only hearing third party scenarios though.....news reported that he hit his own anchor line on his "Trophy Boat".....
 
Happens almost every seasons.......it will stop when they run out of dumb people.
 
Lindenhurst Man Killed in Jet Ski Accident

A 33-year-old Lindenhurst man was killed while riding a jet ski on the Great South Bay on Saturday afternoon.

Suffolk County police said Michael Mignone was riding his Yamaha jet ski near the New York State Boat Channel when he hit the anchor line of his 20-foot Trophy boat shortly before 5 p.m.

The U.S. Coast Guard responded and took Mignone to Venetian Shores in Lindenhurst on his own boat.

He was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center in West Islip where he later died.

The boat and the jet ski were towed to the Suffolk police Marine Bureau in Timber Point for safety checks.

First Squad detectives said the incident appears non-criminal.
