Choosing a jet ski: valuable advice

A water motorcycle is a very interesting thing. Fast, beautiful, twisting complex tricks unit, which is almost the safest mode of transport. It's no wonder that so many people want to have it! However, before moving from words to deeds, and beginning to learn how to conquer the wave, it is necessary to learn to understand the technique in order to buy a water bike that is most suitable for you personally.

Let's start with the classification. There are several types of watercraft: family, sports and tourist. Each type is "imprisoned" for its work.

Family hydrocycles, as a rule, have a large capacity (up to four people). A large trunk will allow you to take everything you need with you. On the management of this type of jet ski is most like a very happy elephant - obedient and soft - you can give a steer even to children.

Tourist aquabike. Such models are very roomy and massive. Figuratively speaking, this is a whole camp on the water. Many models are equipped with hinged footrests to facilitate swimming away from the shore. A water motorcycle of this class is as stable as possible on water, durable and has a long range of autonomous travel. Of the general disadvantages of this class is worth noting sluggishness.

Sports jet skis. The most spectacular aggregates are "found" in this class. They are made of light materials. A small weight and powerful engine allow these "monsters" to develop a speed of more than 100 km / h on the water. Sports water motorcycles, as a rule, are executed in a "standing" scheme. That is, if in the two previous classes there are seats, then they are not provided. This arrangement improves controllability due to the leg strength of the "pilot", but creates an additional load on them. Take into account, to conquer a water sports car, you need a good preparation. Otherwise, figuratively speaking, your legs will fall off.

Having dealt with the classification, you have to deal with documents as well. The "zakavyvyka" is that the law considers water motorcycles to be small vessels. Therefore, having bought it, you will also have to undergo a standard bureaucratic registration procedure. And, for 10 days after the purchase. For registration you need to go to the State Inspectorate for Small Boats. There you will need to write an application, pay for registration and show a document that confirms the legality of the acquisition. The last point is discussed in more detail. If you bought an aquabike in the store, then there will be no problems with this item. But if you do it with your hands, then you should draw up a power of attorney or a contract of sale.

Finally, we will discuss the financial side of the matter. The cost of purchase, in addition to the standard "quality / performance" ratio, will largely depend on the class from which you chose your water motorcycle. The price of quality sports models starts from three hundred thousand, tourist - from 400 and above. Budget options are much more modest.

In addition, it is not obvious to many newcomers that it is necessary to store the motorcycle in a box, to deliver it to water in a specially equipped trailer. It is necessary to buy additional candles, life jackets, washing hoses for cleaning the water jet, oil, well, and a cover is also desirable. Therefore, depending on how much the water motorcycle of your dream costs, do not forget to add the cost of additional "consumables" to the final price.
