In addition to adhering to all boating laws, PWC operators have requirements specific to their vessel.
- Everyone on board a PWC must wear a USCG–approved PFD at all times.
- PWC must be equipped with a lanyard-type engine cut-off switch. The PWC operator must attach the lanyard to his or her person, clothing, or PFD.
