There are a lot of reasons. If the drain plugs aren't in, that would do it. Also, the impeller shaft seals or carbon ring may be worn. One way to tell is to get the jet ski dry, place it in the water, and then run it with the seat off. You should be able to tell where the water is coming from.

What will cause a jet ski to take in water?
damage to the hull or drain plug(s) not in place or missing. Another cause for a jetski taking on water can be loose rubber hoses inside the hull. If a rubber hose that is connected to the exhaust is loose the hull can quickly fill up with water. If you notice your hull is filling up with water get to the shore and check all the hoses to make sure they are installed properly. This is usually the number one reason why a ski without hull damage takes on water. Especially if the engine has recently been installed after a rebuild. Even professional shops will occasionally leave hoses loose. I have helped numerous folks at the lake because they find their ski full of water before they even leave the boat ramp, serous damage can happen to the motor if the water is sucked into the reed cages and not taken care of properly.

Can you crank a jet ski out of the water?
Yes. You can crank and start a jet ski out of the water. However, without water, there will be no cooling for the engine, exhaust, and driveline. So generally it is not recommended to let the engine run more than a few seconds. Many people crank a jet ski out of the water to prime the fuel system prior to placing the jet ski in the water.

Do jet ski have brakes?
No they don't. The force of the water against the front of the jet ski will stop it when you slow down. :)
Will a jet ski sink?
A jet-ski will only sink if it has been holed, or it's hull otherwise opened up to the water- even then, the damage has to be very serious, because their hulls are divided up into several water-tight compartments. But they certainly don't sink when they are stationary- they float under normal circumstances, just like boats do!
What is a jet ski drain cable for?
To drain the jet ski, of course. This is needed after washing the bilge but they are usually opened after removing the ski from the water to let any water that has accumulated in the bilge drain out.
