thanks for sharing. nice river. will do it someday. my parents live out that way but we tend to have the skis in the water at the cottage in Cocagne so really don't trailer. will do it before year end though. ride safe
@djchopperd it is a real nice river. You will definitely want to make a day out of it. Bring a lunch etc. Launch in rexton and check out the dunes if water is not to rough. Then head to Browns yard and back. There is a few spots in Browns Yard that people will beach to hang out. Same at the dunes. You can definitely make a day out of it if you want to.. Approximately around 30km from rexton to brown yard one way.
@djchopperd you very well possibly could. He should know the river enough now. Few spots to watch out for, other then that it is pretty straight forward to navigate. After the main river bridge it is not marked. Best to go with some one who has been on the river before up towards browns yard after main river bridge. But if you watched the video. Good majority of spots I traveled in video is where the channel is. Or has been safe to travel so far. There is some sand flats in some sections were you can end up in 2 feet of water. If it looks like a sand bar it probably is. Lol
Do you have an estimate of the time you can spend on the water in the Kawasaki before fuel becomes an issue vs the Yamaha? I hear the Kawasaki is very thirsty which means the water time would be low and refueling is needed often vs the Yamaha machines. Thoughts?
@danav3387 good question, it all depends how you ride. The ski can be fairly fuel efficient if crusing around 40-60km hr just on plane no boost or around 25- 35 mph no boost. I want to say on the supercharged ski you could get 150 km to a tank cruising not pushing boost some what safely. I never just cruise, though. I push the ski from time to time and play some while cruising. We did a 100km round trip. I cruised, and I played around and I arrived back to the launch with around half a tank from full and then let a buddy take it for a ripper and still had above 1/4 tank, prolly just under half. Another day, I did around 100km little less then half tank. Cruising 40-60km-hr Then burnt 1/4 tank in 25 km wide open. So it depends. I never did a complete test of how far I could get just cruising till I run out. But if one was to just cruise just on plane in medium power mode I am sure one could get 150 km safely. 3-4 engine hours of semi constant cruising Most of where I go we ride for 30 mins. Rest for a hour, ride for another 30 mins, rest a hour. Etc. Multiple times throughout the day. I can be out for a day 5-8 hours hanging out and arrive at the launch with 1/4 to half tank. I have yet had my fuel light flashing. If all you want is wide open throttle then no machine is going to be fuel efficient. 2hr run time maybe. If your out leisurely pleasure cruising 3-5 engine hours. more maintenance on the supercharged ski's. If looking for fuel efficiency and not looking for power get a non supercharged ski, will also be less maintenance. Another thing to keep in mind. Who is your dealer? What are their reviews? How is the after the sale service with warranty or repair if required. Google the problems with each unit your looking to buy. Each brand and models have problems. None are perfect. They all eventually brake in different ways. Kawi has treated me good over the years. The ultra 310 has treated me fair so far. Few little things like exhaust filter that is an annoyance to replace each year unless you want to bypass it. Other then that in 70 hours changed exhaust filter twice. Had wiring recall done and amplifier for radio. Changed oil once a year. Semi minor scenarios. On my kawi - well maintenanced with 70 hrs all plastics in good shape, hull is good. Engine still strong, no paint flaking or things falling off. I'm happy with it so far. If you want to view a fair amount of kawi content check out jd waterwold. He rides in some pretty rough stuff off the coast of Florida. He has a lot of maintenance videos but also because he prolly has 200 hours on his ski by now. I was looking at the fx cruiser but I am happy I picked up the 310lx. If I were to buy a second ski I would prolly go with the 160lx less maintenance scenarios. I am not brand loyal. I just try to pick my battles in maintenance scenarios and what I am looking to have in a unit.

@@lucamadventure6675 thanks for the info. will definitely plan a trip in the near future. Maybe I'll use Terry as my guide
