Re: early jetski
honestly I have never heard of that ski. pictures would be a good thing.
supposedly bombardier made a 400 cc twin cylinder sit down ski around 1968 but only for a year because it didn't seem to catch on so they abandoned the production..

this is another article about the first p w c
When snowmobile manufacturer Bombardier Inc. introduced the SEA-DOO? in 1968, the idea of a motor-driven consumer watercraft with no visible propeller was revolutionary. The idea of passengers standing on a watercraft instead of sitting in a conventional hull was also pretty out there. In fact, the design turned out to be too original. Bombardier's new product was not successful, and the company discontinued it in 1970.
