Anyone brought one in from OS?
with the Strong Aussie dollar I have seen Seadoo RXP's, Wakes etc for around $6-$7k with 30 or less hours....just how to get them here??
Would be nice to have one as a safety backup for those offshore days, conditions always look so flat, but if things went wrong.......
Hey Wisha talk to Graham at American Muscle Cars he imports cars, boats, and skis(u buy what u want through ebay etc then he gets it over here) he is also located in whyalla but like anything be care full what you buy especially when you cant inspect it.
jetskis are hot items for those nigerian scammers, i had one try to scam me saying he would send it to me from england.
its pretty obvious, but just in case you are the trusting type, watch out when buying from over seas
Jetski Warehouse on the Goldy import their skis from the U.S. and they are about 5k cheaper than Yammy just up the road. They also give you a 5 year warranty instead of Yammys pathetic 12 months.
I have a sled, works great with a cargo net that you can get from Supercheap. Having the ski opens up some great uncrowded kite spots here.
Once you have a good anchor, water, and wettys e.t.c. in the compartments on a ski, you won't have much room for kite kit.
hook the kite bags onto the towing eye, they sit on the stern, and get a bit wet. boards in the footwells with your legs over 'em, plenty room for pumps harnesses esky etc etc in the holds and 2 people. just go a bit steady or you smash the beers!

seriously, that video (i confess to having wasted two whole minutes of my life on it) is the best anti-stinkboat argument yet posted. such lame wave-riding, if you could even call it that, and the cumbersome loopy things are just embarrassing to watch. if that's the cutting edge of the sport, it's about as sharp as a bowling ball.
this thread makes great reading. Noticed Victoria is bringing in hoon laws for jet skis and can confiscate skis. Bring it on in WA. Be glad when theyre all either locked up or crushed
why is "joel parkinson" on the cover of WA boating pamphlet?? moonlighting as a model over the ASP tour break??
I read somewhere that Hannibal Lectur had a jetski..........
And Hitler.....
And Genghis Khan, but his was hay powered.
Come to think of it a guy sittting on a horse that was body surfing waves would be super cool not bogan and a@#ehole type behaviour at all. As usual Old School is always cool.
