Wow...obviously no fins or articulating keel.
Thinking? W.T.F. is the brake pedal.

Reminds me of a friend I let drive my 96 SeaDoo XP. It was the first time he ever drove a PWC so he didn't know jets don't steer without thrust, which was my fault for not explaining it to him. He came in too hot at the pier and smacked the rear edge of the hull on the pier! My PWC was only like 2 months old I think at the time
. Thankfully wasn't any real damage other than a broken corner rub rail piece that I replaced.

I like your post, I will not rate it bummer dude although I will say bummer dude. Ya without fins, rudder (articulating keel) or thrust they will go where momentum takes them. Glad you fixed it easily. My boat is still new to me and I will not let anyone operate it around solid objects, it takes a little practice in the beginning.
