Welcome Aboard :cool:

I gotta ask: deepsea fishin' on a jetski!? Doesn't that bring the potential to hook something bigger than the boat?

:eek:

Ha Ha, Yes sometimes, its all part of the fun and adventure. One can always cut the line if it gets too hectic, but you usually have to drink a few shooters as punishment if you do. the biggest problem is storing the fish once on-board. You usually have to strap it to the deck on the side of the ski and kinda rest you foot on top. Its great fun.

J-Bay a great spot for surfing......and catching great whites :) . In fact the whole place (South Africa) is stacks of fun and really beautiful. The Cape coast also has some great surfing but its flipping freezing in the Atlantic.

Thanks all for a great welcome.
