Stern (back) of PWC
from the rear of the PWC over the stern
If your personal watercraft (PWC) overturns, first, stay calm and assess your situation. If you're wearing a life jacket, ensure it’s securely fastened. Try to reboard your PWC from the rear, as this is usually the easiest method. If you're unable to do so, signal for help and stay with your craft to increase visibility.
After a fall, a PWC (Personal Watercraft) should be rolled back onto its right side using a technique called "righting." This typically involves grabbing the rear handle and pulling the craft toward you while applying weight to the opposite side to leverage it upright. Ensure the area is clear of obstacles and that the PWC is stable before attempting to reboard. It's important to check for any damage or leaks after the roll before continuing to use the craft.
