    Always turn any PWC towards the exhaust side of the motor. In otherwords, if the exhaust manifold is on the righthand side when viewing from the rear of the ski, turn it clockwise, or to the right, to upright the hull in the water.
    The idea is to not allow the water that is inside of the exhaust system to flood the motor.

      On a Ultra the exhaust is directly on top of the engine. The carbs are on the port side if it was upright in the water. So on this craft turn it clockwise from the rear.

        Stock boats normally have a sticker on the back of the hull (upside down) for the fallen rider to see and follow - if you don't have one and let others ride it might be a good idea to get one and put it on, or mark it to tell them in some way. Could avoid a lot of headaches (damaged motor) and hard feelings between friends...

          always flip an ultra counter clockwise. The carbs and the exaust are on the port side (Left) If looking from the back of the craft you want to flip it counter clockwise.
