Boating Basics: Before Going Out on Your Vessel

Fuel Selector Switch on a PWC

This switch can help you avoid becoming stranded without fuel.

  • Use the “Off” position when the PWC’s engine is turned off.
  • Use the “On” position while you are underway.
  • Use the “Reserve” position if you run out of fuel while underway. This will allow you to return to shore. Don’t forget to switch back to “On” after refueling.
