Great vid! I ride stand up skis and my latest hack? How to get my drone, controller and batteries out on the water and film without getting my gear wet. It was as simple as buying a waterproof backpack and wearing it over my life jacket. I can then set up on a clear sandbar, island or shore. I've done it twice and it works great! And I have the video to prove it!
Those seadoo's you showed that sank due to missing drain plugs did not sink due to missing plugs. Modern Seadoos (including those shown) have a check valve that only allows water to exit. I rode 3 hours last week with both plugs out and had no problem.
From memory I purchased it at anaconda but I suspect most stores that sell kayaks will have something similar. Just make sure it’s correctly rated for jet ski.

G’Day Jorge. Hope you’re enjoying your jet ski and thanks for your msg! All going well but just been too busy to make the videos sorry. Ironically I’ve actually been camping, hiking and jet skiing more than ever. I do miss making regular video’s but the editing takes hours. Perhaps I need to find a faster workflow or different style to make the task easier. Any suggestions?
@@JetSkiCamping not yet. I have a bigger channel too. But, yeah. Editing sucks. Most channels hire somebody when the cash flow makes sense, until there, unless we got a family member that likes editing, we are stuck to it.
Danm that ski is massive! Might as well get a smaller boat at that point and take all your family and friends with you! If u have no friends or family then i find a smaller ski lol.
@@costasgeorgiou5015 flushing it has nothing to do with the carbon seal. You need to inspect the carbon seal and replace it when it wears down enough. Some mechanic you are. It's called preventative maintenance. Also involves keeping the boot greased to keep pressure against that carbon seal. And as far as your 9 hour claim maybe you just got unlucky or are just stupid. Or maybe it had more than 9 hours. No way to tell it that's true or not but I call bullshit
@@neal5186 well well I give anything a chance till it burns me. I just have yamaha's now. I have had jet skis for 15 years you ask anyone there quantity in the last few years have gone down the drain. Stop being a sinkdonts fanboy and realize when you see crappy products. Just like Solas in recent years gone to shit.
@@costasgeorgiou5015 you burnt up the carbon seal from running it too long while flushing it on the garden hose as there's no cooling to the carbon seal when the ski is out of the water
Sorry to hear that. Most of us ride sensibly (and draw no attention) but unfortunately there are always going to be some exceptions. Thanks for watching.
Grabbing my spaghetti container now. Cheers, great stuff.
Gr8 video. Hydration bladder, can put rum coke in it or would I need flat coke? Cheers
Hahah loved the pasta container hack, I’ve done that!! 🤙🏻
You can also glue or silicon a small mirror in the lid of the spaghetti container for a signalling device.
Brillant idea!
Great vid!! I use the pasta container for my safety gear too, but I cut up some foam mat to put in the bottom and in the lid as cushioning.
Thanks Anthony! That's a great idea!
Nice vid, I’m keeping the spaghetti in with the flares incase I need to throw them in the air too
Good thinking!
That's hilarious!

So soap will work as good as salt away when flushing your ski after salt water rides?

Thanks - that’s good design.
Bad info, not having the drain plugs will definitely cause you to sink. Those check valves easily get stuck in the open position
When I visit my mom this weekend I'm "borrowing" her pasta container!
I heard about Dawn dish soap however the degreaser can be bad for any rubber parts it comes in contact with so I heard
Thanks for sharing this big, like 👍
Great Video thanks mate. Could you let me know where you got your Vest from with the Hydo pouch? Cheers Dicko

Utterly brilliant ... esp the hydration bladder tip

Hey man!!!
Where are you!? I hope everything is fine with you and your family!!
Missing your videos. I am just a beginner in Jetski.

How is a sticker going to remind me
Great tips
Thanks Rodrigo.
Good video
Do tell me how long have you used that hose flush system?
Usually just fresh water - see the other videos on how to correctly flush.
Jet Ski Camping no the hack where you use dishwashing liquid down the hose because you never used that method in any of your other videos
Yeah I mostly just use fresh water. If I've been out for days and concerned with salt build up I might use this trick followed by fresh water.
One closed cooling system.... the only thing you flush is the exhaust. And mine can only flush for 90 to 120 seconds
Lot of angry wives after this vid !!
Salt Terminator is probably a better source
Danm that ski is massive! Might as well get a smaller boat at that point and take all your family and friends with you! If u have no friends or family then i find a smaller ski lol.
Or take them on your massive jet ski?
@@danieljackson2628 what fun is that all bouncing around one person falls off and takes u with them
Personal preference I guess.
@@danieljackson2628 I own both a Yamaha waveblaster and a Monterey boat. I know.
@@jeffbryner5355 I own both as well
SeaDoo don’t have the 1st issue lucky
I have a 2021 GTR 230 and it definitely does have that issue
Geez Modern Skis are Beyond Massive Bulky
Haven't you heard of salt away??????
You lost me at the sticker
Hahaha those sinkdonts.... "seadoo" sink cause of a carbon seal not the drains.... Lol
Just another point of regular maintenance that people neglect
@@neal5186 my ski was brand new 9 hours on it always flushed and I'm a mechanic.... Explain.

Washing up liquid has salt in it
Ahhhhh!!!!
number4 is ridicules lol
I own a wake boat and personally hate jet skiers they ride are wake when we surf and it’s very dangerous and annoying
Sorry to hear that. Most of us ride sensibly (and draw no attention) but unfortunately there are always going to be some exceptions. Thanks for watching.
There are assholes everywhere. Not everybody is like that
Lol
Thanks Josh!
I'm 11 and I can kinda drive a jet ski and there's no cap
I''ve got a hack for jet skiers....... Get a real boat and life is good.
🖕you and your boat. Our life is great!!
