What Kind of PWC is Right for You?
One easy way to boost your summer fun is with a PWC. Who wants to spend their summer spending time by the water when you can be out conquering it! A PWC is your ticket to adrenaline rushes, thrills, and unforgettable memories.
But first you’ll need to pick which PWC you want. From Jet Ski® to WaveRunner, there are many options out there. It can get overwhelming scrolling through page after page of inventory. Here at Mid-State Motorsports, we enjoy making things as simple as possible for you. Use the following questions to help narrow down your search. When you are ready to look at some models, visit us in Cookeville, Tennessee.
How Many Passengers?
A great place to start is considering the number of people you’ll take out on your PWC. You’ll need different power capacity to take one passenger than you will to take multiple passengers. Plus, sifting through options by passenger capacities helps eliminate several options and makes your search easier. Most brands, like industry leaders Jet Ski and WaveRunner, make a range of choices so you can find the right model for your intended passenger needs.
Some people seek out a single-passenger PWC. They enjoy the tranquil time alone on the water. Or maybe they enjoy hitting those waves and reaching top speeds that their less-daredevil friends can’t stomach. Either way, there’s a certain freedom that comes with riding alone. If that’s your style, you only need a PWC that can handle one passenger. Opt for a smaller, lighter, and sleeker model (which will give the benefit of higher speed capacity and agility).
Others prefer group riding. They enjoy taking friends and family aboard their PWC. They can cruise around the bay or tow water sport enthusiasts. They hope to make memories as a group. If that’s your preference, you’ll need a larger PWC. The seat must fit multiple people and the machine needs to be able to handle the extra weight. You’ll have to go for a bulkier model that offers less speed and handling, but the tradeoff is making memories together. Typically, a larger PWC will fit three individuals including the driver. But some will fit four.
Are You Seeking a New or Used PWC?
Once you have a general picture of what type of PWC you want, you are ready to look at models! Your next big decision is whether you want a new or used PWC. There are benefits and drawbacks to both strategies.
When you buy new, you get a machine at its peak performance. It comes to you without any baggage or history. It’s a smooth running, scratch-free beauty! You’ll enjoy the protection of a warranty. If any manufacturing flaws surface, you can get them repaired for free. The downside of this option is it’ll cost you much more money.
When you buy used, you save money. You use depreciation in your favor to get a quality machine at a fraction of the cost. The risk, though, is that you don’t have warranty protection. If problems arise, it’ll have to be covered out-of-pocket.
What Features Do I Want?
Different brands, such as Jet Ski and WaveRunner, offer different features. Keep your phone juiced up with a charging bay. Protect your valuables with waterproof storage. Play your favorite tunes on a Bluetooth-enabled sound system. Think about what amenities you want and find a PWC that provides!
