Jet Skis/Sea Doos vs Ski Boat
My son is 16 and he's never been water skiing. I grew up on the lakes of Missouri and did plenty in my day. I'd love to have a boat but really have no place to store it.
Looking into getting a Jet Ski. I've heard good things about Yamaha and Sea Doo's. Problem is, the $9300 price plus trailer is a little steep. I could get a boat for that... Anyone have any opinions on this stuff? I hear I need at least 130 hp to pull a 170 lb skier. Thanks |

OK, it would probably cost more than $100/day.
But unless you are using a boat or jet ski A LOT, I don't see how it isn't much better to just rent one.

The 2 best days of being a boat owner is the day you buy it and the day you sell it.

![]() I've heard there is dock about every 20yrds(exaggeration of course) that has really screwed that lake up. Went there as a kid 40yrs ago and it was beautiful. |

Thoroughly agree. The only caveat to that thought is if you are a serious bass fisherman.
