ynot 45 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 Why do these idiots even with a big black rego number something like 104619 at oneroa insist on doing maybe 10-15 knots within Approx 4 meters of ya bow.... Duh maybe the hot chick on it was impressed. "dick fu@#/)n head" I think we need a EMP just like in the matrix. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Deep Purple 512 Posted January 3, 2018 Share Posted January 3, 2018 Actually jetskis have been pretty good. There aren’t many as Whitianga is more a retirement village as opposed to Pauanui where every jet setter holiday house has 3 of them. Only issue here boat-wise is speeding in the channel. Against a 5 knot flow you can understand but some are powering up downstream once clear of the wharf. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
