I was at my favorite boat dealer today. He sells Cruisers Yachts (I bought one from him some years ago) and Four Winns. He just signed on with Yamaha. He was telling me how advanced they are in boat building after he toured the factory. I've been thinking about buying a boat in the 21 foot range and the Yamaha jet boat looks super good (on paper as he hasn't received any boats from Yamaha yet). I'm concerned about general handling characteristics, especially in a big water body like Narragansett Bay where it can get choppy. In addition, I'm concerned that the boat might be a tad loud, sounding like a couple of jet skis. Another concern is I'm wondering if the intakes ever foul with debris. Therefore, anyone with jet boat experience, would you please give me the DL on jet boats? Thanks.
