Can't stress safety enough- Another family destroyed because of a life vest.
Sad story that possibly could have been prevented....

ADA COUNTY, Idaho — Marine deputies with the Ada County Sheriff's Office are working to recover a 16-year-old who fell off a personal watercraft Monday night in Lucky Peak Reservoir.
A spokesman for the sheriff's office said Tuesday afternoon that the missing person, whose name hasn't been released, did not resurface after falling off the watercraft, described as a Jet Ski or similar model, at about 9 p.m. Monday.
The missing person was riding with another person on the watercraft, when they hit a wave and the boy fell in. The Ada County Sheriff's Office said the two people were not wearing life jackets.
The driver of the watercraft jumped into the water but could not find the boy, an Ada County Sheriff's Office news release said. Several people from another boat also tried to help find the boy, but were not able to.

Update: marine unit and dive team deputies are through with today’s recovery search for the 16-year-old boy who fell into Lucky Peak Monday night. They’d been at it since sunrise. They’ll resume later this week. More details at http://adacounty.id.gov/sheriff/blog/
