Kawasaki 260LX
With three seats, the Kawasaki Jet Ski Ultra 260LX ($13,199) lets the user carry two passengers, while a 260-horsepower four-cylinder engine means there is enough speed to keep everyone happy. A three-blade impeller system makes for quiet cruising through narrow waterways, but the fiberglass-reinforced plastic hull keeps the driver in control on aggressive turns on open water.
