Jet skis are becoming more popular each year. These personal watercraft are fast, maneuverable
and a blast to ride. For most jet skis are just fun to ride. Others like to jump waves and I have seen others
tow tubes with there kids behind the ski. These units are great in shallow water and especially fun on calm
lakes and inland waterways. Some controversy has arisen over jet ski accidents recently. The problem seems to
come from people who are not familiar with the waterways navigation rules. These Jet skis are just so fast and maneuverable
that it is easy for them to make turns and accelerate directly into the path of another boat. Bottom line is the Jet Skis
are perfectly safe as long as the rider is responsible and follows some basic rules of the road.

As with all types of power boating I highly recommend those unfamiliar with operating a marine vessel to obtain
some basic training. Then proceed with caution and use good common sense.
