I like that the controls are sharp and responsive. The speed ups and slow downs of the vehicle on the water surface captures the feeling of being on a jet ski really well.
The game looks to be in a very early state, and I would guess a lot of features are still unimplemented. Therefore, if you haven't planned already, I thinking adding mechanics such as more gun types, enemy types, and power ups would go a really long way!
On the visuals, I find it a bit strange that the premise of the game is that you're playing as someone who is escaping from pirates, but the enemies in the game are various animals and creatures. I don't know if the sprites are still placeholders, however, so this comment might be completely irrelevant.
Also, I think that the player should be able to see the impact of their bullets visually, so maybe some kind of feedback when the player hits / kills an enemy would be nice.
Overall, I think the core gameplay feels really smooth, especially the controls. The game is somewhat enjoyable as it is now with just this, so I'm looking forward how fun it will be when it's completed with all it's features!
