Hi all,
So after extensive research and way too many hours watching YouTube videos, I've narrowed my search for my first PWC to the Yamaha VXR. Love the fact that it's a no-frills sports car of a ski that will fit 3 people, smoke any other ski (stock) on the water, and it won't break the bank.
So here's the problem: for all my searching, I can't find a single video or post about being pulled, i.e. tubing, wakeboarding, skiing, behind one. Without a supercharger, does it have enough torque to pull a wakeboarder out of the water or do I need a fuel-guzzling supercharged beast for that? I feel like anything that can push 70mph out of the box should, but the light weight of the ski concerns me. Anyone out there riding one of these that can enlighten me?
Thanks!
