Reading the owners manual is the best starting point, build the stregth in your upper arms before you try something where the ski flips over, you have to flip it back yourself and get it running or paddle back. They are more fun with the handlebars on the top side, get to know your battery and cooling system first thing by reading some of the technical questions here, without those systems in good order you have a rowboat.

The first time your out get to know your ski do some slow turns and get use to keeping a little throttle when you turn so you dont lose you steering, do a cupple test stops pwc dont come to a stop very quickly so getting to know your ski. Know your motor and how it runs weather its 2 cycle or 4 cycle. keep up on the maintance like keep your trailer axles greesed, and grease the ski the pto shaft if equipted. And most of all HAVE FUN!

Welcome to the forum. I see you have two posts. Both are posts asking for advice on the boat (or PWC) and motor. I'm really not trying to sound rude, but this forum is filled with all kinds of info that will answer so many questions you might have. If you have a specific problem, it would be great for you to make a thread and solicit advice.

All the info on maintenance, winterizing, compression, pumps and maintenance... It's all here. We also have a search engine. I'd suggest you become familar with the forums topics and enjoy reading the thousands of posts some of our experienced members have shared.
