GPS or digital compass?

Thank you everyone for your suggestions! I think a compass and a map should do for the jet ski. I found out that the boat has some sort of GPS. I just have to learn how to use it along with a map of course. Does anybody know where to find a small map of the lake? The one that I have used is quite big and a pain to pull out all the time on a jet ski.

I also think that I will ask an experienced neighbor for a guided tour of the tricky parts. I was up once last year and navigated the buoys exactly opposite! It is a good thing that the lake was high! (I have my boating license, but sometimes loose my bearings.)
