Where to Find Cheap Jet Skis

By Low Jeremy


We don't normally have time to go out to the beach and stay under the sun right? We don't often have the money to spend on chic stuffs either, without even punching holes in our pockets. And for water sports lovers, those two things become the main hurdles in enjoying life.

Among the most loved water sports in the world is jet skiing. However not so many of us have the good mixture of time and spare money to delve into the sports.

So you would ask, how could I benefit from the sports without taxing myself? Well then, you always have the option to look for cheap jet skis.

Let us be more realistic here. Jet skis and equipments normally come with high tag prices, so where does option comes? You see, there are always Jet Ski rentals willing to provide help. In this article, we will sight some of the tips that will help you let loose of the money matters towards the thrill of the sports. Here they go:

Know the mode of your choice.
You always have two options, to rent the Jet Ski on sight or rent it from a shop.

On-sight renting entails the process of making arrangements in local jet ski rentals located near or in the resort. By this, you normally have to wait in lines and pay higher rates.

When you rent in advance, you need to have equipments for transporting the jet ski into the resort. You obviously need to have a ski cart for handling. The prime advantage of this option is that you can readily jump into the waters without having to make the arrangements first. Plus, the privilege of paying less. You only have to worry about the transportation though.

Now we're done with the mode of rent, lets move into the issue of what jet ski to rent. Like with any other sports, jet ski requires a great deal of expertise. And for each level, there are types of jet skis that you may encounter.

Cheap jet skis vary in prices of course and there are no general rules. So depending on several factors like length of use or the jet ski model, your rent rate may toll between $20 to $50 daily and higher.

Even with these prices, anyone can still agree how expensive Jet Ski equipments can get. Add to it the fact that some Jet Ski rentals require their customers to purchase insurance for damage, which in fact can raise prices higher.

Hints On 42 sailboat

Swinging moorings tend to be the cheapest way of mooring a boat, although some sort of winter storage may need to be considered. Swinging moorings are provided in rivers, estuaries, harbours or in other areas of sheltered water. They consist of a buoy which is attached by chains to a heavy sinker which lies on the river or sea bed. Your boat is attached to the buoy and will then swing around in the water according to the direction of the tide - hence the name. To get to your boat you will need to use a small craft like a dinghy or inflatable tender.A mooring in a tidal area will probably mean that the boat is high and dry for some period of time and it is wise to choose one which will sit down comfortably, probably on bilge keels. If you choose to moor your boat in tidal water then you may come across the terms Mud Berth, Half Tide, and All States Of Tide. A Mud Berth is where the tide will go out and leave your boat sitting in the mud until the tide comes in again, which restricts the times as to when you can use your boat. In this case it would be worth contacting the mooring operator to find out when the best times are for using your boat. Half Tide is when the tide will be in at your mooring for about half the time of the full tide. All States Of Tide means that your boat will be afloat all of the time, moorings in these areas tend to be more expensive than the mud berths as you can use your boat at any time

Water Purification On Boats

Tue, 30 Oct 2007 20:45:45 +0200
I came across this product AQUA SALVEO for water purification. Just wondering has anyone used this product OR any other product to do this job. My boat has been sitting for 4 years now and I suspect the water is maybe older than that. I can't remove the tanks without some major demolition and reconstruction work so is this the best alternative.

40' - 45' Bluewater Cruiser?!

Fri, 24 Oct 2008 19:10:48 +0200
I'm looking to purchase my first sailboat and I am in need of some guidance. I was leaning towards a steel or aluminum hull but most do not have a swim step and walk through transom. It sounds kind of odd but the is a top criteria for me. Three reasons: it is easier to land big fish, it is easiers to board from a tender, and I have a dog who loves the water and if she jumps I need to get her back aboard somehow. Do you know of any steel hulled sloop or cutter rigs that have a walk through transom and a swim step?! I am looking at the 40'-45' range.
