    Bob. Why do you call the waverunner a "ski"?? I own a 2022 Waverunner. Yamaha owners don't call their proud water vehicles by another manufacturers ' name? Is a Ford called a Chevy? JETSKI is Kawasaki. SEA DO is a Sea Do. Waverunner is a Yamaha. 😅

      And a jet ski or ski cover all three brands!! Hahahhaha. My wife Debbie did not like this term the first year of this channel either but she gave up. You will see in my earlier videos I had a tagline of Yamaha Waverunner Adventures…My audience rides all three brands… in the end we just call them skis down here…. While I may ride a Waverunner I consider myself a jet skier! Hope that helps…. While others may not agree it won’t change. 😄. Thanks for watching and commenting… I appreciate it. Bob

    Full circle moment. Two days ago I took a friend and his brother (3 skis) on a Keowee tour and we essentially hit all the sites you did. Jumped off both rocks, went to the dam, sat under the falls, etc. Warpath is even the spot where we put in. I love the twisty section as you near the taller raven rock cliff jump, so today I googled something like "Best twisty section for PWCs" and came across your Ocklawaha River ride. A few clicks later I watched your video of Jocassee saying it was the best PWC ride in America, so I was feeling pretty fortunate. Then I watched this one. Small world! Next time you're up, head over to the "Hot Hole" and jump in. If they're pumping out the water which just cooled the reactor (maybe they always are...I don't know), it's like a hot tub there. Your ski may float away with the current, so hang on!

    Awesome video. Im also in the market for a gps on my 2023 FX and Was curious as to the screen. When water hits it does it accidentally start pressing buttons? Also does that map cover bahamas? How is the unit holding up thus far?

      @@Jetski_ter thank you for watching and commenting. Water hitting the screen has no effect…you can see in my other videos I take waves over the cockpit and it does not affect the chartplotter… the mapset includes the offshore area of the United States and Canada and does include Bimini… the unit has not failed me once in constant use in 4 years.

    Actually there is cell service if you stay close to center of lake channel. I happen to know because the oil filter seal blew out on my ski near the Towaway suspension bridge! (5 miles from the dock) Fortunately, there was one final boat coming back for the evening and they towed about a mile and i was able to contact the park office and DNR Ofc Brian came out and saved the day.

      Very safe ride… just note where the canals are that connect the lakes and ensure you are in no wake speeds there. Check out the map in the video and use google map in your phone or the like for reference. The beautiful properties around the lakes are the highlight on this chain!

      Thank you for watching and commenting. I appreciate the offer to ride but I am probably not much fun to go out with as I only ride on weekdays, and almost always solo or with a small cadre of friends I have been riding with for many years. Just wanted to give you an honest reply. Been out in the Gulf twice in the last two weeks, both solo... all of my rides are repeatable however with the maps and ramp information in the written description.

They have issues with Elk wandering onto the road and the car in front of me hit an Elk. I swerved to miss it and ended up spinning out. They towed me into Rawlins as it was the closest town. I started SOTA last year and it didn't even occur to me there would be a peak out there. I'll have to stop in and activate it next time I'm through there. Looking forward to the new video.
