Learn More About Personal Watercraft!

In recent years, personal watercraft (PWC) have become immensely more popular with marine recreational enthusiasts. These fast and powerful crafts are great for recreational riding, but they can also be practical for utilitarian uses, such as transport for rescue crews.

America's Motorsports Nashville is proud to be your Tennessee personal watercraft dealer. Read on to learn more about what personal watercraft are and how to choose the right one for you.

What is a PWC?

We'll start by identifying more closely what a personal watercraft is. PWC emerged from one Norwegian-American inventor's desire to recreate the experience of riding a motorcycle on the water instead, which would be safer. Clayton Jacobson II was an avid motorcyclist who suffered a crash and decided that if he were on a vehicle that hit the water, he would be in less danger. So he developed the initial prototypes for the first personal watercraft in the late 1960s.

Generally speaking, a PWC has space for anywhere from one to three passengers, along with some storage space and a small swim platform for entering and exiting the water or sunbathing while you're not in motion. Personal watercraft are usually sit-down style, operated with handlebars and a throttle, and they have a kill-switch that attaches to the operator's wrist or life vest to cut the engine if the operator falls off.

Shopping Considerations

When shopping for a personal watercraft, you'll first need to build a budget that incorporates not only the sticker price of the PWC itself, but also insurance, maintenance and safety gear costs. Every rider should invest in a personal flotation device (more commonly known as a life jacket) to wear at all times while riding a PWC, because the risk of falling into the water is high and you may become temporarily disoriented.

Consider how many passengers you wish to take with you at a time, as well as your personal experience level. A slower and less powerful sit-down style is ideal for families and beginning riders. More experienced riders can get more powerful PWC that accelerate more quickly, but may not have the space for extra people.

Finally, think about what types of features you may want. Not every PWC is built the same and there are a lot of options out there. Some features you may need include Bluetooth® capabilities, storage spaces, audio systems, charging bays or modular seating.
