On Monday, we took the SPX out to the Greater Miami River to test to see how it did on the water. Up to this point, we were only able to verify that it worked by running it out of the water. From past experience, we knew that because it works out of water does not mean it works in the water. It ran GREAT. That little thing has a lot of power (compared to our old Wet Jet). We ran it for about an hour with no problems at all. The only issue that we had was that it kept bouncing in the water, even the there were no waves. This only happened when both of us were on it though. Side note, the river still makes everything it touches stink horribly.
On the ’90, we changed out the starter on it after we tested the SPX. From looking at the old starter, it was definitely bad. Not sure if that was the only thing wrong with the jet ski though. We didn’t think about charging the batteries before I showed up at my parents, so the battery only had an hour charge on it, which really wasn’t enough to try to get it started. I’m going to head over Friday after work to work on it a bit more with a fully charged battery.
