Operating a PWC

A person shall not operate a PWC at any time between sunset and sunrise unless equipped with navigational lights that are in accordance with USCG regulations.

PWC must be operated in a careful and responsible manner. For example, it is illegal for PWC operators to:

• Weave the PWC through congested waterway traffic.
• Jump the wake of another vessel when visibility is obstructed.
• Operate in a manner that requires swerving at the last possible moment to avoid collision.
• Chase, harass, or disturb wildlife with your PWC.

PWC operators should avoid operating around fishermen, anchored vessels, or swimmers.
