I really dig the Sea-Doo jetboats. Almost as fun as a Sea-Doo, but you can carry more people.
That Sea-Doo jetboat you posted is so JDM -- it's RHD!!!

Honda is for 4 stroke for sure, heck they were the first as well.

As for boats being fuel pigs, of course, specially when you factor in

1.) No transmission, at cruising speed your around 3500-4000 RPM and at FT your about 5-6 or more RPM, because of no transmission, take the tranny off your car and it would suck back gas too

2.) Lots of water resistance, even when on the water, thats why hydroplane designs rule, but your still touching water so you will always have resistance.

Yeh it's sure sporty, its just like the one above without a windshield to give it less air resistance. You could take down any other 14 footer on the lake.

Look in the trader for boats under 5 grand...theres plenty around 14 - 17 feet w/ engine and trailer.

Edit: I tried to link a few ads but they didnt work.
