Jetskis are better and faster to pick up people when you fall. boats are clumsy and big wakes are gay.

Jetskis get boring fast, you can take your crew/family in a boat. Stock wakes rock.

A boat offers so much more. Wake, beer, music, girls in bikinis, and monster double ups.

A ski gives you quicker pick-ups, and you can get into shallower water; but the power of a boat is more consistant.

Personally whatever is leaving the dock first I'm on it. I don't give rats ass, as long as i can wakeskate behind that joker.

Boat's all the way.There isn't really a comparison.All jet ski's are good for is hitting rails in shallow area's and tow in surfing.

If I had to choose: BOAT!

How many ladies can you fit on a jetski?

A boat offers so much more and you can ride the lip, the wakes, 2-ups, rollers etc. The downside is the gasbill...

I usually ride behind my Supra SSV and when I get bored or doesn't afford to pay for gas I just roll out our winch... Isn't life wonderful?

Rob Jet ski's aren't exactly cheap on fuel.Maybe the new 4 stroke ones are better but you don't have other people to split the gas bill with.

tribal, I've been riding behind some Waverunners and I can tell you this; the gas I pay for a session behind our fully loaded Supra SSV isn't even near a session behind a Waverunner. But like I said, we have our winch, recently we had a 3 hour session and paid about a dollar (total) for the gas.....

Boats are killer, because when its all crappy out you can still cruise the lake and hang out.

The biggest advantage to a PWC would be they are ALOT cheaper, and cheaper to opperate.

Boats for obvious reasons, the first being a much more consistant pull. Sound system, bimini to keep the sun out of your eyes... great date too. Wink
