PHUKET: Two Chinese tourists were injured in a jet-ski collision at Patong Beach yesterday (Sept 11). Both men escaped serious injury, but compensation for damages to the jet-skis the men were riding has yet to be agreed.

 

Hu Meng, 28, was riding the jet-ski registered under the name “Star” which he rented at the southern end of Patong Beach, reported Maj Teerasak Boonsaeng of the Patong Police, who was notified of the incident at 3:50pm.

 

Yang Ming, 26, was riding the jet-ski named “Thanathip 2”, which he rented from near Loma Circle, at the far northern end of the beach.

If the Chinese ride Jetski,s like they cross busy roads, no insurance will cover stupid!

Looks like the jet ski operator brought his cash bag with him. Jet ski prices are doubled here. I looked at a new seadoo entry level. 10,000 usd here. In any other country its 5,600.

So the renral ski probobly cost 20,000 usd here.

These guys are toast.

Hopefully they get scammed and go home and tell a billion others.
