I have a couple '96/'97 PWC's (Kaw 750 & SeaDoo 750). I bought them cheap with issues and got them running like new again. We rarely take them out as the nearest place to ride is the Maumee river which gets boring real quick. We have had them on Lake Superior and Lake Erie where they are a blast to horse around on, but these older models beat you up a bit more in rough water than the newer 4 stroke tanks if you plan on riding longer distances (which we do not). I don't mind two strokes and they really don't smoke that much.
I have ridden a couple newer supercharged 3 seaters, but after a few holeshots and speed runs, they get boring too and are not as much fun jumping waves with as the smaller lighter machines IMO.
I guess I am saying the older ones are plenty of "fun" jumping waves and doing donuts with. The newer ones are fast, but after the first couple rides 60mph is really not very thrilling for someone who has experienced other forms of motorsports. I feel much better getting bored with something I spent a grand or two on vs something I spent 10 grand on. YMMV
