Boating Accident Results in $3.4 Million Award in a Michigan Personal Injury Trial

Posted by TotalInjury.com Staff Writer | Posted in Personal Injury Cases in the News

Polaris Sales, Inc. failed to issue a recall notice soon enough for Willard Long to avoid suffering a massive head injury from a defective boat. The boat that broke apart and injured Willard Long was a Polaris 2000 personal watercraft and was known to be defective well before the recall notice was issued. Long actually received the recall notice while he was in the hospital recovering from his extensive face and skull injuries.
A jury awarded Willard Long $3.4 million for damages which is most likely the largest personal injury award in the history of Kalkaska County, Michigan.
