Whether you own, rent, or borrow a PWC, this brochure offers readers basic information about who can ride/operate a PWC, helpful tips and advice on how to get PWC education, safe operation of PWCs, national statistics regarding the usage of PWCs, and web site links to boating safety organizations that offer additional information on what parents and guardians should know before they let children use a PWC.
