Mul,

I own two old SeaDoos that I bought new in the mid 90's, an XP and a GTI. We enjoy them, especially the kids, and I've keep them well maintained.
The first year or two we owned them, we used them about ten times a year. Now, even though I live on the water and have my own boat ramp, we only use them about four or five times a year, max. I let a few friends I trust use them an additional five or six times a year just to keep them from sitting.
What to do: I agree with Eric. For the first year/season, rent and get an idea if you'll use the craft enough to justify the purchase. If you choose to buy, purchased used. There are amazing low hour Sea Doo's on the market. Let someone else take the depreciation hit.
