I have had jet skis and enjoyed them for over 25 years. The four strokes made them less noisy and much smoother.

However the newer jet skis with stereos can be as annoying as a wake boat with the high mounted speakers. They both blast sound for a large distance, disturbing the peace and quiet for many people in the area they operate in.
