typical wanky american rubbish - take the jet ski for instance - the stand-up type was too hard to master, so they built a sit down one. i reckon it's just well marketed crap.

Half of what??

On a real quad you'd probably get the cops called on you for rarking around your local reserve or cruising down the shops in about 5 minutes. But with something thats almost silent......... Bring it on I say.

Wanky american rubbish blah blah blah whatever Marty......

And given that the name "Jetski" is a trademark registered to Kawasaki, some nerdy American coined the descriptor "personal watercraft" to describe all other similar craft made by other manufacturers, forgetting that a canoe is also a "personal watercraft". Idiot. Sigh.
