Successfully Defended Renters of a Ski Boat

Successfully brought a Motion for Summary Judgment in a lawsuit against the renters of a ski boat.  The plaintiff, who had been tubing behind the boat, sustained injuries as a result of having been struck by the boat’s propeller.  Judgment was entered on behalf of the defendants based on the doctrine of primary assumption of the risk.  More specifically, the court held that in engaging in the sport of tubing, plaintiff assumed any risks associated with that sport, to include being struck by the boat.
