When operating in shallow water or seagrass, it is crucial to stop your vessel and walk or pole it out of the area if you notice a mud trail behind you. This signifies that your jet ski is disturbing the bottom substrate, which can lead to sucking up sand or seagrass into the engine. Doing so not only protects the environment from damage but also prevents potential engine failure caused by clogging. By walking or using a pole, you can safely navigate your craft back to deeper waters, ensuring both the vessel’s efficiency and the preservation of aquatic ecosystems.
