Not just charter boats....the SAME charter boat. I have no idea the extent of his injuries, but I wish him a speedy recovery.

TekkyDiver started much the same thread, Another mishap in Jupiter. Mod.s may want to merge the threads to keep it together.

Looks like left arm. Glove still partially on. Arm wrapped and dressing bloody in spots.

Prop accident?

I was trying to figure out if his fingers were black or what. Glove still on explains it.

First guess but there are a few other possibilities. Had a friend who put his hand on a handrail at sea and something heavy dropped on it and smashed off half his hand. I imagine that if you got our hand pinched between boat and bouncing ladder it could do a number. He seemed alert in the picture.

When you feed sharks for a living, it shouldn't come as a surprise when you get bit!

Reports are that the operator (Randy) was shark feeding and the shark got him.
