To prevent a collision, boat and PWC operators should:

Follow the rules of navigation.

Pay attention to navigational aids.

Keep a sharp watch and appoint one person to be the “lookout.”

Maintain a safe speed, especially in congested traffic and at night.

Look in all directions before making any turn.

Use caution if you are traveling directly into the sun’s glare on the water.

Never operate when fatigued, stressed, or consuming alcohol.

Be aware that floating debris is more common after heavy rainfall.

If it is safe to do so (no approaching traffic and/or traffic in intersection), move out of the way.If not, prepare for the hit, as it is better to be hit, than to cause a collision (from an insurance/fault stand-point).-Move into your set, and head against the head rest. This will help reduce any possible whip lash.
