    My brothers, myself and friends used to be into the jet ski thing when we were young but now its just lame and costs way too much to ride. The real shit is a wakeboard boat, its big money but thats the real fun on the water. Tubing, skiing, wakeboarding, etc... Thats WAY more fun than riding jet skis, uses less fuel and entertains more. Its about time for a new boat, the 23yr old runs great but the hull is showing some wear.

    wakeboarding is real, but so is riding. Just because you rode couches all your life doesnt mean riding isnt badass. cause it can be, i promise.

    true, but its like most hobbies, its all about what YOU like. That 30ft cabin cruiser is usless to a boat full of boarders lol. and that tow boat is usless to a family of 5 (most likley).

    In boating, its best to buy what suits your familys needs best, then get friends that have the wakeboard boat, the go fast boat, and jetskis or whatever, then everyone shares. In the end everyone wins, because there isnt a single boat that usually will be optimal for the average crowd of people.
    if that makes any sense haha
