On Thursday, Bertrand Poisson, 47, was operating his recently purchased 2024 Ski-Doo on Wilson Pond at high speeds and in a back-and-forth serpentine fashion with little experience. As he was turning he was thrown and tumbled across the water at high speed about 5:30 p.m. Poisson immediately began yelling for help and several boaters and witnesses responded. They were able to pull him from the water and take him to the boat landing where emergency medical personnel performed lifesaving measures. “Speed, alcohol and marijuana appear to have contributed to the crash.”
