Operating a PWC

PWC must be operated in a reasonable and prudent manner. It is illegal to:

• Weave your PWC through congested waterway traffic or swerve at the last possible moment in order to avoid collision
• Jump or attempt to jump another vessel’s wake when within 100 feet of the vessel creating the wake or when visibility is obstructed
• Follow within 100 feet of anyone being towed behind another vessel
• Speed in restricted speed areas or operate at greater than headway speed while within or at the entrance to a marina or other mooring area
• Operate in areas where motorized vessels are prohibited
