Utah’s Youth PWC Education Course

Friday, Feb. 18th 2011 6:59 AM

Your safety is our number one concern.  All youth, 12 to 17 years of age, are required to complete and pass the Utah PWC Education Course* in order to operate a PWC, or personal watercraft (Jet Ski®, WaveRunner®, Sea-Doo®, etc.), on any water body in Utah.  Children who are younger than 12, may not operate a PWC without a responsible adult onboard.

Youth 12 to 17 years of age may operate a PWC on their own under the following conditions:

  • Successfully completed Utah’s PWC Education Course*.  Upon completion, a certificate is issued and must be in the operator’s possession while operating a PWC;
  • In addition to the education requirement, operators 12 through 15 years of age may only operate while under direct supervision of a responsible person who is at least 18 years of age;
  • A person who is under 18 years of age who has not met the above requirements may not operate a PWC unless accompanied, on board, by a responsible person who is at least 18 years of age.

The Utah PWC Youth Education Course fee is $34.95 per student and must be passed only once.  Students must be at least 12 years of age to complete the course.  We strongly suggest that students thoroughly study the material prior to taking the test.  If you fail the test, you will be able to retake the test at a later date.  You will only need to pay for the course once the test has been passed.  Upon completion of the course, and once the test has been passed and paid for, you will have the opportunity to print out a temporary safety certificate that will be valid immediately; you will then receive your permanent safety certificate in the mail.
