In Michigan, Jet Ski operators do not need a separate license specifically for operating Jet Skis or personal watercraft (PWC). However, individuals born after December 31, 1978, must obtain a boating safety certificate to operate any motorized watercraft, including Jet Skis, on Michigan waters. The certificate is obtained by completing an approved boating safety course, which covers topics such as navigation rules, safety equipment, and operating procedures. It's essential for Jet Ski operators to comply with boating safety requirements and carry proof of certification while operating on Michigan waters.
