ABSTRACT:
A control arrangement for a small watercraft of the jet propulsion type having a reverse thrust bucket that is operated by a shift control. The shift control is positioned in relationship to the throttle control such that an operator can operate only one of the controls at a given time. In addition, the throttle control is biased to its neutral position so that when an operator releases his hand from the throttle control to effect a shift, the speed of the watercraft will be reduced.
