OK all the smart aleck saying are taken so I'll stick to the compliments.....
My buddy has 2 of those supercharged SeeDoos. Those things flat out rock!
Guys around here take their high power bass boats pretty serious and they got really pissed off when I chased them down and passed them on one of them!
70 mph is really fast when you are sitting inches above the water and hanging on for dear life.

Thanks all, this is our first experience with one, we are going out saturday and hopefully not look like complete rookies. I'll let it get broke in good before I let er rip.

Did you pick it up new?
I used to have a 96 HX, and a standup. Sold both to pay some bills, but I will have another standup again. I've never been on the supercharged ones, but I heard they flat out rip.

Thanks sanddragonslayer, I'll remember that.
No aka_chewy not running a premix on it. Have read the whole manual and have not seen it mentioned.

Things may have changed, I used to run a 50:1 mix on the first tank to get things all lubed up. The last new ski I had was back in 97, so it's been quite a while.
And yes, no throttle, no steer and no brakes. Although I did see Sea-doo has developed a braking system. Did this one have that?
Have fun and take some pics

Never been on one, but it really looks like fun. Let us know how many times you bail on it the first day; and don't be afraid to open her up!
