When you turn a personal watercraft (PWC), the craft leans into the turn due to its design and the dynamics of water. The rider shifts their weight toward the direction of the turn, which helps maintain stability and control. Additionally, the PWC's jet propulsion system allows for sharp turns, as the water is directed by the steering nozzle. However, turning too sharply can lead to loss of control, so it's important to navigate turns cautiously.
The back of the PWC is pushed to the left when a PWC's steering control is turned to the right.
When turning a PWC steering cable right it will go left. If you turn it left it will go right.
It will Continue Toward The dock
You will not be able to turn .
You are operating a pwc and you are heading straight toward a dock, you cut the throttle to idle and then turn the steering control hard right so the pwc will go straight, it has no power this way.
turn left
If you turn off the engine of a personal watercraft (PWC) while heading straight toward a dock and then turn the steering control hard right, the PWC will continue to move forward due to inertia. However, without engine power, it will not be able to effectively turn or steer, and it will gradually lose speed. The PWC will start to drift to the right as it slows down, but it will still be on a collision course with the dock unless you regain engine power or use a paddle to steer.
