When operating a Personal Water Craft (PWC), if the engine shuts off, the vessel will lose steering control, meaning you cannot steer the craft in any direction. This happens because PWCs rely on the propulsion from the engine for both forward motion and steering; without engine power, the craft will continue to drift in the same direction due to momentum. This underlines the importance of maintaining control and being aware of your surroundings while operating a PWC to avoid potential hazards. Always ensure the engine is in good working condition before use.
