I'm considering buying my first PWC and could use some expert advice.

I plan to go in salt and fresh (mostly) water, the PWC will have to be able to carry three. Since the passengers will likely be family members, I'd like a PWC that is dependable and is comfortable.

When I am by myself, the horns will come out so it must also be fast (not necessarily the fastest), should be able to tolerate jumping within reason, should be maneuverable (willing to give up a little stability here), and be durable.

Depending on how much one that fits the bill will cost new, I may shop for a used one

My questions are:
1. Does such a PWC exist? Make? Model?
2. Anyone want to review the type of craft they have?
3. Any recommendations as to where I can get reviews (ie not marketing hype)?
4. Other than looking for hull damage, exhaust smoke, jammed/damaged impeller, What should I be wary of in a used PWC?

Thanks in advance for whatever advice you can offer.

wet neoprene

I would say the gtx sc. Its good for salt and freshwater, big enough for 3, powerful enough to ski or tube behind it (185hp) and there is no lack of stability with this ride. It is however quite pricey
