Looking for the largest for stability and comfort but also as fast as I can find. This will be my 3rd jet ski, always owned Aquatrax in the past but have not been around in the market for about 5 years. Need something that will do day trips.

Hot good is the Honda F15X, more HP?

Personally I would stay away from any brand of PWC that has ceased production in 2009. Plus Honda Turbos are unreliable unless maintained after every ride. Try the Seadoo RXT

If your looking for something for long cruises, I'd avoid skis with super/turbo chargers. Like Outlaw said, Honda hasn't made a ski since 2009. Their PWC dealerships and mechanics have pretty much disappeared, so finding service could be a challenge, even if you can still find a ski for sale. Seadoo makes some nice skis, but I'm seeing guys having to rebuild the supercharger every 100 hours, so if you look at one of their models I'd look for a non-supercharged model for a ski that you may be putting lots of hours on.

I'd put a new Yamaha FX HO Cruiser on the short list. Good fuel economy on 87 octane for those long rides. 63 mph on a normally aspirated very reliable engine, so no super/turbo charger to worry about. Cruiser seats with back rests for the long hauls and plenty of storage space to carry all your stuff. Cruise control to help keep the fingers from falling off on the long rides. Fuel management software to make sure you make your destination, etc..

Yeah the FX cruiser is like the Honda Goldwing of the PWC world. Another great alternative for a touring machine would be used Yamaha SUV or SeaDoo LRV 4 seater. However they are 2 stroke, don't know if you'd want to go that route.
