tips for newbies

[AeR0]

so i am in the process of getting myself a gtx 155.

ive never launched a sea doo or loaded or unloaded one and was hoping perhaps some of you guys could share tips with me.


possibly there are some other ethics or unwritten laws i should know?


anything you could share with me that may or will benefit me?

Brantford eh? I have friends up there and 3 of my division plants is located there

Don't prep on the ramp. Get everything ready to go and START your ski (a few seconds) before you back down. Nothing worse and more annoying then waiting for some moron that is taking his sweet a&$ time. You will find that sharing ramps with fishermen and non-jetski tree huggers will earn you a cold shoulder. Yes you have every right to be there as well but don't give them a reason to bi***...JMO

 

[lvanek]

ya fishers and non jet skiier's think they own the ramp and we shouldnt be there....:rant:

on that note :cheers:

oh dont go at your trailer full throttle...
..
..
also unplug your trailer lights before you back in the water..you will find this to save you many fuses and hassle incase you have a bad light cover or bare wire somewhere

I guess you know that revese steering is backwards than other boats that are not jet drive. just take it slow and do not try things like this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VOOTBrT7PgY&feature=related
