Extractions: Protecting our national parks, forests, and waterways from damage caused by motorized recreation and unsustainable energy development. Personal Watercraft: Creating Havoc in their Wake We all have a cherished memory of swimming in our favorite lake, walking along the beach at low tide, sitting at the edge of the river to listen to the birds sing. We flock to our waterways for peace and quiet, to swim and fish and sail, and to observe the wildlife that thrive along the shoreline and in the water. If you have ever heard their high-pitched whine or witnessed riders harass birds and marine animals, you understand the harm that personal watercraft, also known as jetskis, can bring to our waterways and our enjoyment of them. Nearly 100,000 of these so-called "thrillcraft" are sold each year, and more than one million jetskis are currently in use in the United States. They move at speeds that can exceed 65 miles per hour, leaving in their wake a host of environmental and safety problems. Most personal watercraft are powered by two-stroke engines which dump 25-30 percent of their fuel unburned into the water. A two-hour ride on a jetski can discharge up to four gallons of gas and oil into the water. At Lake Mead in Nevada, the Park Service estimates that on a busy weekend jetskis release 27,000 gallons of gas and oil into the park's waters. Unlike motor boats, jetskis are designed to maneuver into remote, shallow areas where a variety fragile plants and animals live. Studies have shown that jetskis harass waterfowl in their nesting areas, as well as marine mammals such as dolphins, seals, humpback whales, and manatees.

PWC Safety graphic, DOBOR banner, link to DOBOR homepage personal watercraft SAFETY. About11 percent of all registered boats nationwide are personal watercraft. http://www.hawaii.gov/dlnr/dbor/bor_pwc.htm
Extractions: The increased sales and marketing of Personal Watercraft (PWC), particularly over the past several years, has resulted in significant increases in the number of these craft on the water. Along with this growth has come an unfortunate increase in the number of PWC-related accidents tracked by the states and reported to the U.S. Coast Guard (see table below ). It has been easy for critics of PWC to see this as evidence of a safety concern with these craft. While these "raw number" approaches are understandable, they tell only part of the story. About 11 percent of all registered boats nationwide are personal watercraft. Industry statistics show that although PWC owners typically have substantial boating experience, they share their vessel with an average of three different people on a typical boating day. "Without a doubt an educated boater is a safe boater," states Larry Lambrose, executive director of the Personal Watercraft Industry Association (PWIA). "The personal watercraft industry strongly supports mandatory education for all boaters and the use of personal flotation devices for all passengers and boat operators. In fact, we have provisions for both in our model law and are encouraged that states are seeing such positive results from the legislation." More than twenty-six states have based PWC laws on the PWC Model Safety Act developed and endorsed by the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators (NASBLA). This act addresses minimum operator age (sixteen), prohibits nighttime and reckless operation, requires all operators and passengers to wear U.S. Coast Guard approved life jackets, and requires operators to use the lanyard stop switch (for boats so equipped).
