As the owner of the watercraft, you are responsible for assuring that all required safety
equipment is aboard. You should also consider supplying additional equipment as
needed for your safety and that of your passenger.
Check state and local regulations about required safety equipment. Safety equipment
required by regulations is mandatory. If local regulations require additional equipment,
it must be approved by a competent authority.
Minimum requirements include the following (not supplied with this vehicle):
Personal flotation devices (PFDs)
A buoyant heaving line of 15m (50 ft) minimum
A watertight flashlight or approved flares Signaling device
Sound producing devices (air horn or whistle).
Recommended Protective Gear
The operator and passenger must wear protective gear, including:
A wet suit bottom or thick tightly woven and snug fitting clothing that provides
equivalent protection. As an example, thin bike shorts would not be appropriate.
Severe internal injuries can occur if water is forced into body cavities as a result
of falling in the water or being near jet thrust nozzle. Normal swimwear does not
adequately protect against forceful entry of water into the lower male or female
body opening(s).
