Kawasaki or Seadoo?

[ricus]

I am looking for a good ski to fish off.

I looked at the Seadoo GTi 130 on special for R 99 000-00. dealer says its most stable ski on the market.

I also looked at the Kawasaki Ultra 250 I can get a good pre-owned with 25hrs on for R110 000-00, the dealers also said that this is the most stable ski to fish off.

I will be using the ski for offshore fishing and some bass fishing, and just some fun over the weekends,

What do you guys think?

Any thougt on the yamaha?

Hi Ricus

I guess most dealers will tell you their product is the best in every category!!

I own a Kawasaki STX12F jetski. Have only been on the sea couple of times and then wasnt for fishing. Just playing in the waves.

As for power(125hp), speed(94km/h) and space(3 seater) I am more than happy. Never given me the slightest problem.

For a fishing setup checkout the post by Battle Axe!!

Hope this helps a bit bud!!

Hi Rickus

Give Sante Racing in Jhb a try. They sell Doos and Sakis so you will get a balanced opinion.
I have an STX 15F Saki and am very happy with it.

Good luck

Hi

 

I have a Sea Doo RXP that I use for fishing and playing. The skis you have mentioned are bought three seaters that in important for fishing and stability. Kawasaki BIG horse power Sea Doo GTI less horse power but more than enough for playing and fishing.  Personally I believe you will sell the sea doo faster at a later stage.

Hi

I own the stx12f and my brother owns the 250ultra .
Both are exellent to fish of.  power stability and reliable.But the problem comes
with launching  the stx about 325kg  and ultra about 500kg  veeeery heavy to
drag on sand
