1. Don't run your pwc close to shore, you'll pick up stones and wreck your impellor and pump!
2. If you must go between moored craft do so at a slow speed, respect other people's property and enjoyment of the sea.
3. Be aware of kite-boarders and windsurfers, give them plenty of space. In certain wind conditions they may encroach into the Jetski area.
4; 5 & 6! Ensure the bungs are tight before launching (we hoped not to need this one putting in!); If solo launching PW use a rope to attach trailer to tow hitch (trailer's have a knack of hiding while you're anchoring the PW!) & 6, Either store your car keys in an Aqua-pac (especially if you have alarm/immobilizer) or attach them to a float.
7. This little idea is from Martin, a quick release wheel chock. Simply attach the chock to the wheel guard with a elastic cord, magic! 8. Do you have trouble getting your boots on over your drysuit booties? Struggle no more! Cut the "feet" off a pair of tights, wear these over the neoprene booties and hey-presto! Boots just slide on! (Just try and keep hold of the one pair though, she's bound to notice if her tights keep disappearing every week end!)
