The jet ski rider appeared to follow the boat before sending a huge wave crashing onto its decks at the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria on Monday. The incident seemed to be completely unprovoked and left those on the boat, including a 13-year-old girl, feeling frightened. The jet ski rider appeared to follow the boat before sending a huge wave crashing onto its decks at the Mornington Peninsula in Victoria Katelyn Oakley was on the boat fishing with her cousins when the rider started following them. 'We were fishing and then he came around unexpectedly so we moved away,' she told 9 News. 'He kept following us and he was just being an idiot really. My phone now has water damage. 'We are all okay but it was really scary. It's not safe.' Zara Read, 13, was also on the boat, said it was a 'frightening' experience. 'It was pretty scary. He could just lose control, you don't know what could have happened.' All jet ski riders in the area have been put on notice by the council following a string of complaints of bad behaviour. Mornington Peninsula Council Mayor Steve Holland said more needed to be done to protect swimmers and wildlife from irresponsible jet ski riders. Zara Read, 13, was also on the boat, said the encounter with the jet ski was a 'frightening' experience Katelyn Oakley was on the boat fishing with her cousins when the rider started following them 'We are sort of at our limit now,' he said.' We need the state government and the minister to step up and make sure that the water police are actively resourced so they can patrol the bay here.' Mr Holland has called for new exclusion zones for jet skis in 'sensitive areas' and believes the changes would make beaches safer. The latest incident comes days after a man was seriously injured in a jet ski incident at Safety Beach on the Mornington Peninsula.
