A watercraft has steering force detection sections. Each steering force
detection section includes a pressure receiving section. The pressure
receiving sections are spaced from each other and are in the vicinity of
a steering shaft. A pressing member is coupled to the steering shaft. The
pressing member can press on at least one of the pressure receiving
sections when the steering handlebars are rotated to a maximum steering
angle. A received pressure detection section detects the pressure applied
to the pressure receiving section. The pressure receiving section and the
received pressure detection section are coaxially mounted in a pressure
receiving section casing and a detection section casing. A guide tube can
engage the pressure receiving section and the received pressure detection
section. The guide tube is formed with ribs and grooves. The pressure
receiving section has a pressure receiving member, a bolt, a plain
washer, and a spring member.
