View Full Version : PWC Recommendations

Looking to get a PWC (Waverunner, Seadoo, etc,etc.) and looking for some recommendations from seasoned users. It is mainly for my wife so comfort and ability to handle some water chop is a must. It must be able to carry at least two people. It must have plenty of power also for when I ride it! :) Not interested in used either.
Also would like to purchase in the lakes region or at a marina on the lake, but it appears not many lake marinas sell them. Any good experiences you have had at local dealers would be appreciated. I guess I would need a trailer to...
I have heard good things about the Yamaha Waverunner, but I am completely clueless on these things as I have never owned one so any recommendations would be super helpful.
Thanks!

Hi Dan,
Look at the Yamaha FX-HO or FX-SHO. Definitely the cruiser model for added comfort. The SHO is a screamer but still great in rough water. The Yamaha reliability can't be beat.
Sea Doo has some neat innovations on the new RXT models such as braking and a suspension deck.
I will probably look to go Yamaha again this year. HK Powersports in Laconia sells Yamaha, their Tilton branch sells Sea Doo. Being that you are in the Manchester area I think the Hooksett one sells both. There is also Irwin in Alton and DaSilva in Moultonboro for both.

Dasilva in Moultonborough has received great reviews here before. I'm looking to buy one or two for this summer as well. Would like to find a deal on a late-model used one. If any members have one for sale please post.

It is the seat (and $400-600). The cruiser seat is more form-fitted, where it comes up behind the driver it is more contoured to keep you from sliding back. On the main overview page listed below you can see the difference in the pics.

I would definately recommend a 3-seater. In NH, a PWC with 3+ seats is classifed as a boat rather than a "ski craft", so this may make a difference if you want to use it in a body of water that restricts ski craft.
A 3-seater is also much more stable than the smaller craft. I own a 2004 Sea Doo GTX, and it is very stable. With a 4-stroke 155HP motor, it certainly holds its own on the water. This is my second Sea Doo 3-seater, and I have been very happy with both.
Yamaha makes a great PWC as well, from what I hear.

I personally would recommend going with a four-stroke engine. My reasons are that they sound better, stink less and last longer.
As many of you already know, we own a Sea Doo GTX. We went with this model especially because it had tilt steering, which turned out not to be a factor after all.
I am able to handle this craft with confidence and ease. I've been out in all kinds of weather and wave conditions with absolutely no problem at all.
It's actually quite fun surfing on top of the huge waves - the ones the guys like to jump.
I feel more comfortable navigating our jet-ski than our 21' boat. My family thinks that I am crazy. Am I the only one with this problem?
They think the boat is much easier to handle. Guess I need more practice with it.
The guys love the power and responsiveness of this machine and it gets used quite a lot.
As you might imagine, I use it in a much different manner.
They like to get air and I like to not get hurt. :laugh:
It's been the perfect 2nd boat that suits our needs perfectly.
Good luck in your hunt! You are going to really enjoy your new toys.

:laugh::laugh::laugh: I can TOTALLY relate to that! :D
I had bought a 2000 Sea Doo GTX 3 seater brand new. I did 2 years on the bay in RI and 6 up on the lake with it. Never had any issues with it, 3 person is perfect size for 2 people, but easily handled 3. Motor was a 952 CC 2 stroke, more than enough power to snap your neck back. I never had an issue with it wiping out in 8 years. It is a very stable ride, had it out on the borads on the worst of days. I do not know too much about the newer models, but I always received good service in Tilton, right off exit 20. Forget the name, but they were always helpful.
If you buy brand new then you won't have any issues. All I ever did for maint was cleaning it out, spraying the anti-corrosive on the engine, kept the oil levels up etc. In the end I had over 700 hours on it.
Good Luck.

Sea-Doo for a first choice. RXP for the best performance. supercharged, 4 stroke, awesome machine. with the VTS (Variable Trim System) put it all the way up, get a good grip on the bars, pull back a lil and pin the throttle and your doing wheelies out of the water by yourself. about 65 or 70 mph machine. AAAA+++++ :D:eek::coolsm:
Honda AquaTrax comes in second. 4 stroke, fuel efficient, comfortable, about 48 to 56 mph. 3 person for good stability on those rough days.
I have owned both of these machines and have sold them both. I had the Honda first and then traded into the Sea-Doo. Sold it also. by far the Sea-Doo was awesome. Fast, fun to ride, good fuel economy (Honda was a lil better but the Sea-Doo needed 93 or better octane fuel)
Up to you what you want for a ride.

I purchased my Seadoo GTX a number of years ago from Chuck at Dasilva's in Moultonborough. I have it serviced and I store it with Dasilva. I would recommend them hands down. I go all over the lake with my Seadoo and it handles beautifully. I would love one of the new 2010 models!

Dan, I forgot to mention that you should check out HK Powersports in Hooksett. They sell both Sea Doo and Kawasaki, and have for a long time. I have been going there for a few years now, and they have taken very good care of me. You may be able to find a cheaper price elsewhere, but their service is great.

The water is really tough on the pads and rotors... :laugh:
They use a lever-actuated gate control on the left grip that drops the gate over the pump nozzle to redirect the propulsion forward, thus braking. It also acts as your reverse control all on one.

There are no 25HP PWCs that I am aware of.
You can leave it in the water, but many people would not recommend it. The floating docks that you can drive up on work pretty well.

I think a lift of some kind is the way to go.
These might stay under the 25 mph :laugh: They appear to be kid friendly and they look quite fun. They will keep you fit too! They are a real step up from a pedal boat. ;)

I must be honest about this as I have my snowmobiles and UTV's serviced there and feel they have an excellent service department. BUT, there sales end of things really stinks!! Three times I have tried to buy something there, (Polaris Ranger, custom trailer, and PWC just yesterday) I spoke to a salesman on the phone and all three times I never received a call back!! I have tried to give them my business but I guess they don't want it unless you are a walk in...
I have dealt with Kurt and Chris in their service department and can't say enough good about them! The salesmen are from another planet however!

Thanks! That first bike would be perfect for my wife - I wonder if it really planes like that? I'll probably do a 25 HP whaler for the kids this year - they are outgrowing the 10 HP outboard. They actually waterski and tube behind that now but it's slow.

Regarding 25HP, the only ones that I know of that are below this are the older Kawasaki 440 stand up skis that are not all that easy to ride but come in at about 23-24HP.
A couple of questions for those that may be in the know.
1. On the topic of 2 or 3 seater, what are the ramifications tied to being classified as a boat as opposed to personal ski craft? Does this make any difference in terms of who can ride/drive?
2. We are also thinking of buying one but the topic of having guests come over for say a weekend from out of town and not have a NH boating license comes up all the time. How do people handle this? Many of our friends have ridden these before and have experience but I guessing would not be interested in spending some of the vacation going to school as they say.
Thanks!

We are on the Broads side of Rattlesnake and my friend Dan convinced me that the PWC would last a lot longer if it were out of the water. Two reasons 1) reduction in condensation 2) reduction in the banging into the dock. We invested about a grand in a lift like this. It actually had the unintended benefit of adding some weight to the dock which can be a good thing in rough weather. I added a bit of a out rigger leg on the bottom so that it would not put such a twisting load on the dock. If I had it to do over, I would get a taller one for the bigger than expected range of water height on Winni. Ours came with a 2nd key which restricted the speed. Kids had no idea why we would even suggest they would want to use it.

I use two Sunstream mini lifts for ours with an aluminum gangway from shore that connects between them. The mini lifts are hydraulic (one is solar powered) and have a good lifting range. You can get them with an even wider lift range than mine for places where large waves are a concern.
I drive right on, reach over, hit the button on the pendant (key fob available as well), and out of the water it comes. Great setup.

1. There is no difference in who can drive a ski craft or boat. All require the boaters certification. One of the differences between a 3-seat PWC and a ski craft (fewer than 3 seats) is the lake restrictions. Many bodies of water in NH prohibit the use of ski craft. With the proper sticker, a 3+ seat PWC is allowed in those areas.
2. I am not sure, but I think I have heard that temporary certificates are available. Don't quote me on this though. If that is not an option, any person who is driving would need to have a boaters certificate.

I have done it 3 or 4 times unintentionally. Sometimes it is the slow-speed "events" that will get ya. One of my flips was at a higher speed (I was screwing around on it, doing about 30 mph). The other ones were slow speeds with passengers. All that extra weight from the passengers can make things a bit tippy. :D

I guarantee you will be very happy with your purchase. I currently own my second Yamaha and they have both run flawless. I have the FX cruiser ho and love it. It really handles the big Winni well for a craft that is only 10 feet long. As mentioned before, the cruiser has a contoured seat that I find very comfortable but that's not the only extra in that model. There are also gauges such as air and water temps that the other model does not have. A couple of recessed cleats are also extra and my favorite is the built-in boarding ladder making reboarding very easy. As far as HK in Hooksett, I used them last year after I screwed up and apparently overfilled the oil and fouled the plugs. (duh) Now I know. They were very good to work with. Oh, and its a 4-stroke also!

Hi Chris;
I am pretty sure the only other FX SHO Cruiser they made me aware other than the one I bought was a demo model with 10 or so hours on it. It is red and they said they would discount it so there would be no PDI and other associated fees. Pretty much the web advertised price out the door.

Thanks guys - I really appreciate the help! Am I missing out on anything by not going Sea Doo and getting the brakes, etc.?
I concur with anyone who has recommended HK Sports (http://www.hkpowersports.com/) in Hookset. That is where we purchased our Sea Doo and have it winterized/serviced each year.
I also recommend HK, but the one in Tilton. I shopped all over the lakes region last year (Jan, Feb) trying to get a good deal on a brand new left over. I even tried HK in Hooksett but the saleman there said he'd call me back and never did. I went to HK and got a great deal on a left over GTX. Brand new. They threw in the trailer for free, gave me a cover at cost. Great to deal with. The first week I had it, chipmunks ate all the wires out of the new trailer. I called HK and talked to the service dept. They said they would fix it and the service manager happened to live a few streets over, offered to pick the trailer up at my house in Merideth and when it was finished, he brought it back. That kind of service will get them good recommendations all the time from me.
PS, I got the same machine $4000 cheaper than what Irwin Marine in Alton was going to sell it to me for

If you are dying to get out on the water, no need to wait for ice out. Head over to the Merrimack (the stretch from Hooksett to Concord). The power plant keeps the water nice and toasty. ;)

As a follow up to this post... The owner of HK Powersports in Hooksett took the time to call me and discuss the issues I had with his sales department. I thought that was a stand up thing to do and am very happy we talked. He has earned my confidence back and hopefully my post did not distract any of you from going there.
I try not to use this forum to bash any business or restaurant (I think this is the first time I have) particularly in this trying economy. Any business can have a bad day / days and as long as the owner is made aware and tries to correct the issues, what else can you ask for.
Kudos to HK Hooksett for acknowledging an issue and hopefully correcting it!

As a follow up to this post... The owner of HK Powersports in Hooksett took the time to call me and discuss the issues I had with his sales department. I thought that was a stand up thing to do and am very happy we talked. He has earned my confidence back and hopefully my post did not distract any of you from going there.
I try not to use this forum to bash any business or restaurant (I think this is the first time I have) particularly in this trying economy. Any business can have a bad day / days and as long as the owner is made aware and tries to correct the issues, what else can you ask for.
Kudos to HK Hooksett for acknowledging an issue and hopefully correcting it!
