jet Boat Sea
Jet ski or small motor boat?
Hello, I have €10 grand, live near the sea and want to spend some time on the water- preferably with friends, but can't decide which would be more fun - a motor boat or a jet ski. Obviously, a jet ski limits you to a certain distance from the shore, and you can't go fishing or open a bottle of wine aboard. A boat, I imagine, is more expensive to maintain and time consuming, and you have to pay for moorings etc. Which would you recommend, especially if you've had experience with both? Thanks 
Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to write an answer! The general consensus seems to be that jet skis can be fun, but owning a boat is a more rewarding experience in the long run. I like the idea of buying a RIB - best of both worlds at an affordable price!
Have a look for a second hand RIB (rigid inflatable boat - the ones with the inflatable tubes on the side and a fibreglass/plastic hull). If you can get a 6metre one with a trailer you don't have any mooring costs and you can keep it out the water so less maintenance required. I would advise, if you don't have previous experience, that you contact the RYA (Royal Yachting Association) and ask them about training courses. I did one a few years ago and they are great fun to do but more importantly give you more experience and knowledge. Jet skis are extremely dangerous and as you say you can't take your friends out on one. A decent RIB could carry 6-7 people and they are much safer than a jet-ski and much more seaworthy. The other advantage with a RIB is that you can drop anchor in a nice bay somewhere which you can't on a jet-ski. I used to have RIB and have had jet-skis also and I'd have to say that although jetskis are a lot of fun I would go for the RIB any day. Another piece of advice is to look for one with an auxillary outboard motor - not much fun if the main engine breaks down while at sea and you have no way to get back to shore, theres no space for a backup motor on a jetski. Don't forget lifejackets and other safety equipment, for example a flare(hand-held), medi-kit, possibly a small GPS.

Well, Bill.
Here it is February 2010 and I'm tying as fast as I can. I am making another tour through the NE Oklahoma again. I should leave San Diego around April 1st. I'll have my “new” jet boat. Another Alumaweld “Free Drifter” and expecting some great fishing. I really hope we get some time together this time. I'll get my schedule to you as soon as I can. I'm trying to schedule the same rivers that I fished and the ones I missed because of weather on the last trip. I can hardly wait!

Haha, that was funny!!!
A man had been dating a woman named Lorain for 4 years. He was very devoted to her until he met a woman named Cleary, whom he was also attracted to. He decided that he liked Cleary more than Lorain. Later that evening, he took Lorain out to a river and oushed her in. As he watched her away, he sang, "I can see Cleary now, Lorain is gone!"
