Types of PWCs

Purchasing a PWC is a very exciting time! But before you get ahead of yourself, it’s important to figure out which PWC is best for you. The type of PWC you choose will ultimately be determined by what you’ll be using it for. Take into consideration what activities you’ll be doing on the water, how many passengers you’re likely to have, and your skill level in handling the PWC. 

Once you’ve figured out these essential details, visit us at Crossroad Powersports in Upper Darby, Pennsylvania near Philadelphia. We also serve riders in Deptford Township, New Jersey and Wilmington, Delaware.

The length and width of a PWC will help you decide if your skills match the boat. If you’re a newbie when it comes to operating a personal watercraft then it’s best to choose one with a long and wide hull. These vehicles are designed in a way that makes them easier to operate but keep in mind that large hulls can cause a slight decrease in performance. If you’re more advanced, you can consider a shorter and more narrow PWC. These do have less stability but if you’re seeking an adrenaline rush and can handle a speedy craft then you’ve hit the jackpot!

You should also pay attention to the size of a personal watercraft because this determines its functionality and driveability. Extra seating also contributes to the size of the craft. If you plan to fly solo then you can get away with a one-seater, which is designed for maximum performance. A two-seater provides a wider base for added stability, so that’s always a good choice for beginners who ride in pairs. Larger options come with bigger decks and three to four seats, which is ideal for casual lounging and pulling a water skier behind the craft.

Some less exciting factors to consider happen to be of the utmost importance such as safety and storage. You must have a lanyard to connect to the ignition, so you need to be sure that your personal watercraft has this before purchasing. 

Where you’ll store your personal watercraft is always something you should figure out prior to ownership. When winter rolls around, you’ll be wishing you planned for this ahead of time. You need a way to protect your PWC from the elements. If you don’t want to pay for storage but only have access to a small shed or similar structure, then you’ll need to go with a smaller PWC. 
Needless to say, the larger vehicles with three to four seats take up more space. Aside from storage, you also want to confirm you have a way to transport the watercraft. Make sure that the weight can be towed by your vehicle and that your trailer is compatible. We hope we’ve helped educate you on the different types of PWCs.
