prop or jet boat?

I am currently in CT, but will be relocating to Moultonborough, NH in late summer thanks to work. It looks beautiful up there, but I want to get a boat again. I had a small 17' Bayliner in FL and I navigated the intercoastal without a problem, and I loved it, but unfortunately I had to leave it behind when I moved back. Now I am in the market again and I am curious what you guys would buy..would you go with a bowrider with a prop such as a stingray, bayliner..ect or would you prefer a jet boat. I have been looking at both and they both seem in my price range. I am figuring a jet boat weighs less which may cause some unsafe travel, but they look fun.

Any ideas and tips would be much appreciated. Also I will be docking this boat, not trailering till the winter of course.
