Jetski or water-scooter is one of those known as PWCs (Personal water craft). They are small, fast, and easily handled.  Fairly easy to use, affordable, and their propulsion systems do not have external propellers, making them safer for swimmers and wildlife.  For these reasons, they are preferred for non-recreational use over small motorboats. Due to their speed and excellent maneuverability, police and rangers use them to enforce laws on lakes and rivers  - Wiki

At one time they were not allowed to be too close to shore as there were cases of mishaps involving swimmers. Their use were not regulated which contributed to this. The lack of communication and understanding among users led to haphazard rules and practice.

J for Jetski in ABC of Sports

The thrill of being your own skipper
On your own alone riding the waves
Akin to a Harley Davidson on water
Gangway! There he goes all the rave

Seawater angrily hitting his knees
Taste of salt like honey on his chest
He speeds like a demon just released
King of the waves atop the water's crest
