PWC recomendations

You will get many different opinions on this. I'll share that I have a 2007 Seadoo GTX. It has well over 200 hours on it and all it has really ever needed is an oil change and some seat stitching (it sits on a mooring and is exposed to the elements from May to October) It is a three seater, plenty of power to pull a tuber and goes plenty fast (50 MPH at 6AM on a glass like lake)

I will probably buy another in a year or so.

Thanks for the response, I think I've narrowed my choices to either Sea Doo or Yamaha. From web research those two companies seem to be the most reliable. I'm going to look at one of each this weekend.

I have not used my Yamaha in a few years and should probably sell it. It runs perfect and has about 100 hours I believe. It is an FX cruiser and runs about 60 top end. I'll get more exact info and pics if your interested.

Year? I don't want to go too old.

I'll have to look at the registration when I get home but I want to say 2008.

let me know.

Bought a 2009 Seadoo GTI se 130 with 80 hours. Bought from an older gentlemen like me who took very good care of it. He bought it new, only used it in his lake, and never left it in the water. He had a crank up hanger. My wife and I can't wait to take it for a spin.

Is the one you bought a 3-seater. Do you plan to travel with it. The advantage with the 3-seater is you can go on Squam Lakes which require a 3-seater unless they changed the rules.

Yes, I'm on Waukewaun and I believe you need a 3-seater on my lake also. We plan on traveling with it. It's looks so much easier to deal with, in and out, than my 19ft boat. I will just leave my boat at my dock in Waukewaun. I can't wait to try it out! If I like it I may just buy another one and sell the boat.
