A personal watercraft, driving control system, and method for controlling the watercraft. The watercraft includes a jet powered propulsion system; a steering system including a handle; and the driving control system including an electrically actuated device coupled to the steering system for applying torque to the steering system; at least one sensor positioned adjacent the steering system; and a controller. The controller is configured to: determine whether user torque is being applied to the steering system; and responsive to determining that the user torque is not being applied: determine a steering angle; determine a target angle for returning the steering system to a center position; compare the steering angle to the target angle; determine a centering torque; and operate the electrically actuated device to apply the centering torque to the steering, with the centering torque being applied only by the electrically actuated device.
