What should an operator do when attempting to re-board a personal watercraft (PWC)
When approaching a personal watercraft (PWC) head-on, the boat operator should take early action to avoid a collision by steering to the right, allowing both vessels to pass safely on the left. It's essential to maintain a safe speed and be aware of the PWC's movements, as they can be more maneuverable. Additionally, the operator should sound a horn to alert the PWC operator of their presence, ensuring clear communication on the water. Always prioritize safety and adhere to navigation rules.

The automatic cut-off lanyard, when properly attached to a Personal Watercraft (PWC) operator, serves as a safety feature that stops the engine if the operator falls off or becomes incapacitated. It is typically connected to the operator's life jacket and the ignition system of the PWC. This mechanism prevents the PWC from continuing to operate uncontrollably, reducing the risk of accidents or injuries. Proper use of the lanyard enhances safety for both the operator and others on the water.
Tape it or seal it to the side of the PWC that is being operated or used at the moment. Make copies for additional PWC's.
