The watercraft maintains a more substantial design over traditional jet skis and is capable of supporting up to five people at a time. Operators will enjoy a top speed of 58mph thanks to the 170-horsepower engine within, while the 11-foot length hand 5.28-foot width promise a stable riding experience.
