RULES OF THE ROAD
Collision Avoidance
Do not release throttle when try-
ing to steer away from objects. You
need throttle to steer.
Always keep a constant lookout for
other water users, other boats or
objects, especially when turning.
Be alert for conditions that may limit
your visibility or block your vision of
others.
Respect the rights of other recre-
ationists and/or bystanders and al-
ways keep a safe distance from all
other craft, people and objects.
Do not wake or wave jump, ride
the surf line or attempt to spray or
splash others with your watercraft.
You may misjudge the ability of the
watercraft or your own riding skills
and strike a boat or person.
This watercraft has the capabil-
ity of turning more sharply than
other boats, however, unless in an
emergency, do not negotiate sharp,
high speed turns. Such maneuvers
make it hard for others to avoid you
or understand where you are going.
Also, you and/or your passenger(s)
could be thrown from the water-
craft.
Like most other craft, this PWC has
no brake. Stopping distance will
vary depending on initial speed,
load, wind, and water conditions.
Practice stopping and docking in
a safe, traffic free area to have an
idea of how long it will take to stop
the watercraft under varying condi-
tions.
Maintaining or increasing speed
may be necessary to avoid a colli-
sion.
