Abstract
To provide a steering nozzle angle adjusting mechanism for a jet propulsion watercraft in which an adjustment of the angle of a steering nozzle can be easily carried out without much labor. A steering nozzle angle adjusting mechanism includes at a rear end of an operational cable a screw-connection to a neck portion of a joint. A fitting rod is fixed to an arm of a steering nozzle with a through-hole of the joint fitted over the fitting rod. The joint is fixed by a nut wherein the nut is locked by a lock nut. The lock nut is screwed onto the nut to thereby prevent the nut from loosening.
