A BRIT holidaymaker has been rushed to hospital “seriously injured” after falling off a boat in Magaluf and getting caught in the propeller.

The 22-year-old reportedly had been drinking with friends on the rented boat before falling, injuring himself, and nearly drowning, according to a local source.

Some of the cuts he suffered have been described as deep gashes.

He was admitted to Son Espases Hospital in the Majorcan capital Palma this evening.

His exact condition is not known but his condition when he left the scene was described as “serious.”

The drama happened just after 5pm local time today opposite upmarket Nikki Beach in Magaluf.

The tourist and his companions, also described in local reports as “inebriated”, had rented the boat just hours earlier and spent much of the day on the water.

Beach lifeguards were the first to aid the injured man until Civil Guard officers, Civil Protection personnel, and paramedics arrived at the location.

He was stabilised before being evacuated to hospital in one of the two ambulances sent to the scene.

Dozens of worried sunbathers watched on as he was taken away in an ambulance as he was taken away.

No-one could be reached at Son Espases this afternoon for comment.

There has not yet been an official comment from the Civil Guard in Majorca, which has launched an investigation into the incident.

Last weekend mum-of-four Debra Wright died after the jet ski she was riding pillion on was hit by a boat being piloted by a friend off Manilva west of Estepona on the Costa del Sol.

Her Greater Manchester-based husband Chris, 52, described her as an “amazing woman” in a tribute.

He also told how he cradled his dying wife in his arms.

The unnamed friend was arrested on suspicion of manslaughter and an alcohol-related offence after failing a breath test.

He was released without charge pending an ongoing criminal probe after appearing in court in Estepona last Sunday a day after the tragedy.
