Thanks to everyone for their comments. The kids are 9 & 11....still somewhat under my control, so it will be a few years before they are operating without a "somewhat more responsible" adult. I already have the "ski boat" for the more serious skiing/tubing/etc, but feel the PWC would add another level of fun.

Sounds like a lot of folks are moving from SeaDoo to Yamaha. I had already decided on a 3-seater model. I know the Russell marinas sell SeaDoos, are other brands sold in the AlexCity area? I agree that lake marinas are less willing to "deal" on price (I bought a SeaRay locally). I guess its a trade off....buying locally probably puts you higher on the service totem pole when problems arise. I have a buddy who bought his PWC about an hour north of Bham--mainly for cost--he has had many troubles with it, requiring a lot a trips back and forth hauling it back to the dealer. I like my money, but I like my time, too.

Guess its time to do some looking/shopping/test driving. Maybe I can find a better deal on a end-of-year model.
