I have owned numerous pwc over the years, I actually just sold the two that I had. Sea Doo makes a great 4 stroke machine however when they break it is not cheap...2 strokes are easier to fix and typically cheaper to maintain (no oil changes for instance) but they are louder and smell.

I think that the Yamaha hulls are a drier ride but not as responsive as the Sea Doo. It is a shame that Polaris got out of the pwc business, the MSX was a great machine, made both in a fuel injected 2 stroke that used eco-friendly oil (similar to vegetable oil for injection) or charged 4 stroke.
