Why shouldn't boaters ride too closely behind another PWC?

To avoid colliding in case of sudden turns or stalls
To prevent water spray
To save fuel
To avoid scaring marine life

The correct answer is: To avoid colliding in case of sudden turns or stalls

Boaters should not ride too closely behind another PWC to avoid potential collisions in case of sudden turns or stalls. Riding too closely can be dangerous as it does not allow for enough reaction time and can lead to accidents. Options B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not address the safety concern of potential collisions between PWCs. Saving fuel, preventing water spray, and avoiding scaring marine life are important considerations for boaters, but they are not the main reason for maintaining distance between PWCs on the water.
