I had a 20 foot Yamaha LS2000 for a few years as a a second boat. It was a lot of fun, had great acceleration, and very comfortable seating. They are great for pulling skiers or tubing.

They make a great second boat because you can pick and choose the days and conditions you wish to use them. I don't think I would want to own one on Winnipesaukee as my only boat because there are too many rough days when you wouldn't be comfortable using it.

The twin 135 HP engines (270 HP total) really push you back in the seat when you take off. However they are noisier than an I/O and will use more gas than a comparable runabout with an I/O.
