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.
