Personal Watercraft Safety Tips

Image
Although personal watercraft (PWC) may seem small, they come with some big responsibility. With the horsepower of a large outboard engine and the acceleration of a motorcycle, PWCs are not toys. It's important to know how to safely operate your PWC to ensure a fun and safe day out on the water. Surdyke Yamaha wants to make sure you have the best time out on the Lake of the Ozarks whether you're cruising on a boat or catching wakes on a PWC. If you're hopping on a small, but mighty, PWC, here are a few things to keep in mind to have a safe and exciting time.

The beginning of spring marks the first time many motorcyclists are taking their bikes out of storage. While we have already had a few nice days these past few months, the Lake of the Ozarks is on the crest of having continuously nice spring days. This means that more bikes will be out and about enjoying the weather. Before you hit the road this spring, there are a few things you do first. 1. Change The Fluids Motorcycles require lots of different fluids for them to run smoothly from oil and gas to hydraulic and brake fluids. Checking the fluids at the end of a long winter is much more than just making sure all the reservoirs are full. Fluids that are left sitting for a couple of months may degrade, so it's important to look for changes in color and consistency and replace any fluid that looks dirty or different than it did when you first put it in. If you winterized your bike correctly, you would have either drained the fuel or added a fuel stabilizer. If you did drain your...
