Watersports Safety

It is your responsibility to:

  • Familiarize yourself with all applicable laws, the risks inherent in the sport, and the proper use of equipment.

  • Know the waterways where you will be skiing or riding. Do not ski or ride in shallow water, near shore, docks, pilings, swimmers, or other watercraft.

  • Always have a person other than the boat driver as an observer and agree on hand signals before starting.

  • Always wear a U.S. Coast Guard type III (PFD) vest.

  • Read your owner’s manual and inspect your equipment prior to use.

  • Ski or ride within your limits. Always ski or ride in control and at speeds appropriate for your ability.

  • Always turn ignition off when anyone is near watercraft power drive unit.

  • Avoid CO poisoning! Never drag within 20 feet behind a moving watercraft.

  • Do not operate watercraft, ski or ride under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
