ABSTRACT:
A control for a watercraft powered by a jet propulsion unit and having a reverse thrust bucket. In order to permit the operator to easily use the reverse thrust bucket for trim and retardation, a control lever is mounted on the steering handlebar assembly in close relationship to one of the handle grips. A mechanism interconnects the control lever to the reverse thrust bucket and includes a motion amplifying mechanism so that a small degree of movement of the control lever will be transmitted into a large degree of movement of the reverse thrust bucket.
