    My dad always had a Bayliner, so I'm aware of all the maintenance crap that goes along with it. Jet skis are fun as hell but I've found that they really wear my ass out the next couple of days. All I have is a regular cab Ranger with a V6. According to Ford I'm good for 2,500 pounds. So I figure I'm limited to a jet ski, or possibly this Speedster boat that Seadoo makes that supposedly has 215 hp, and weighs 2,100 pounds.
    End of line.

    you can ski/tube/wakeboard/kneeboard behind a jetski works just as well as behind a boat.

    I would if there were something bigger than a mud puddle around here. There is no shortage of moroons here with deep water sailboats.

    I used to have a Seadoo XP. I had some work done on it and it would haul ass. Lots of fun especially behind a barge. They will wear your ass out just like a dirtbike will but you get used to it after a couple of trips. It's better if you have a buddy with a boat otherwise you get bored on the lake pretty fast, at least I did. My XP was kinda small for pulling tubes and skiers but the larger ones have no problem getting a skier on plane. I got to ride in one of the Seadoo speedster boats once, not real impressed for how much you spend on them.

    A friend of mine's dad recently picked up a pair of kawasakis. I want to say they were 1000cc, but im not sure. Those things were a blast though, and had no problem getting up to 60+ 63 is where mine topped out, and it was supposedly the slower one.
