Thanks for another good idea, Frank! You're inspiring me/ feeding my addiction here because I'm closing in on buying my first jet ski (although I've ridden them my whole life) and here in western NC north of Atlanta the lakes bore me. I want to ride in the Atlantic or Gulf and maybe one day cross to Freeport or Bimini. I'm looking at getting a Yamaha VX since it has the larger fuel tank. Without going further south than I have to, where have you found the largest waves? I can always go down to Haulover, but figured I'd work my way up to that. Also would like to find a group to go with. I know the jet ski community is quite large and I'm hoping to meet lots of great people. Enjoy your videos, keep up the good work.
Congrats on the upcoming purchase. I do enjoy riding on my local lake but you gotta get out somewhere else sometimes and ride too. The Tennessee River is also a good ride. If you want some bigger waves without going all the way down to Haulover, you can try the inlet in Destin. Of course the size of the waves is weather dependent. Good luck with the new ski.
how much do they charge for parking at that ramp /
It was $6 to park your vehicle and trailer
Whisky joes 5313 19th st e ellenton 34222 its about a 18 mile ride from where you put in at. maybee an extra gas can could be shareed w the group. but 45 mph 1 tank will do on a yamaha
That water is beautiful, I'm heading down to Panama City Beach in May. its beautiful there too. They also have crab island in destin which is not far from PCB and I use to ride my Yamaha VXR from Shell island in PCB to Destin and crab island. The gulf is beautiful. :) When I get my new 2024/2025 Yamaha FX HO cruiser I'll connect with you and meet up for some rides. 🤙
I love Destin, particularly Crab Island. A great destination when you have a water toy. Have a blast!!

Oh yes will do Sir. Looking forward to getting my new Yami!
Out of curiosity how many hours did the other ski have on it? I have a 2021 that only has 52 hours. I was told to wait till I get to 60 for the next oil change which I'm waiting for. Your video on that makes a lot of sense, I'm going to buy what's needed to do the oil change. I did the 10-hour but didn't have the right equipment so it wasn't as smooth. Love your videos glad you're back to doing them
The other ski currently has 184 hours on it. I was going to keep it but it makes sense to sell it. It really does make sense to change your own oil. It's not that hard to do and it saves you so much money. Good luck!
Congrats on the new jetski! Seems like you very much enjoyed the ride.
@@jetlag4754 Thanks!
Hi mate, how do you mount your insta360 on ur jet? its the X4 version?
I use a GoPro Max. I bought a cup holder mount from Yamaha, installed a RAM ball mount and a 10 inch extension.
We ride every Saturday in Jacksonville, if you ever in the area let me know
Awesome, will do!
Could someone provide information on the dates for these events?
We do it every March. Keep an eye on the channel for dates next year
You ought to come up to 1000 Islands park on the St Lawrence this summer on the US/Canada border. Absolutely beautiful and great jet skiing
I have heard that it is beautiful up there. I would love to try that some day!
@@TheShipsLogg I’m looking for a ride-along buddy in late July or August if you want to come up. I rode it last year and it definitely the best full-day adventure on the water I’ve had. I have his and hers skis but no her at the moment so you’re welcome to ride my other rxt-x
Can you share your camera setup information?
I use a GoPrp Max. I got the Yamaha cup mount and put a 1 inch RAM mount ball and then added a 10 inch extension rod. I was able to find everything bit the Yamaha cupholder mount on Amazon
Awesome video Frank. I was just thinking about you yesterday saying to myself. It’s been a while since I seen a video from you.
I'm still here!!! Glad you liked it!
@@TheShipsLogg also congratulations on your new ski
I would really like to join you guys next year, im a boater and sailor, have a 2022 fxho. Always enjoy your videos , im from Pennsylvania, but boat and ride on the northern Chesapeake bay.
