Which type of drive is generally found in personal watercraft (PWCs)?

Jet drives are commonly found in personal watercraft (PWCs) due to their unique propulsion system that utilizes a jet of water for thrust. This system draws water into the craft, expels it through a nozzle at the back, and propels the craft forward. Jet drives provide several advantages for PWCs, such as better maneuverability, shallow water operation, and safety, as there are no exposed propellers that can pose a risk to swimmers or wildlife. These characteristics make jet drives particularly well-suited for the nimble and compact design of PWCs, allowing for quick acceleration and agile handling.
