When the throttle is released, the power and torque output from the engine decreases, causing the engine's speed to drop. This reduction in throttle position leads to less air and fuel entering the combustion chamber, resulting in a decrease in power output (PWC) as the vehicle begins to decelerate. Additionally, if the vehicle is equipped with a fuel injection system, it may cut off fuel delivery to further facilitate engine braking. Overall, the release of the throttle initiates a transition from acceleration to deceleration.
The PWC losses its steering ability when the throttle is released.

The most important thing about steering a PWC is maintaining throttle. The steering on a PWC changes the angle of the thrust. No thrust means no steering. If you release the throttle, you cannot steer.
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.
Letting off the throttle control
The back of the PWC is pushed to the left when a PWC's steering control is turned to the right.

Straight Toward the Dock!!
When the throttle is closed.

You must maintain throttle. Most PWC provide steering only by changing the direction of thrust. No thrust means no steering.
