What accessories do I need for a Jet ski?

Watersports

Your Sea-Doo is an investment, and a big part of your return on it is the epic experiences and memory-making it provides you and those you take along for the ride. Those rides are largely about the sheer joy of riding your jetski, however there are some additional accessories that can elevate the experience, even when they’re just practical things that make everything a lot easier. Here are our top picks for the best accessories to add to your Sea-Doo. 


Bungee Dock


Bungee docks are used to secure your Sea-Doo when docking (so it doesn’t float off), and the soft foam ensures it doesn’t scratch or rub against surface while also having a strong internal elastic. It’s for quick docking purposes (breaks between your ride, not for overnight - not that it couldn’t withstand the time, but it’s not as secure against theft) and can hold up to about a 1500 kg weight. Depending on your specific PWC, you may need a double braid, three-strand or a mega braid. You can ask us at Sutto’s which is best for the jetski you’ve purchased, or you can typically get great advice from suppliers. 


Trackers


This is a real lifesaver if you’ve ever had any of your prized possessions go missing… Having a tracker on your PWC gives you peace of mind when you have it docked on the water, or even secured someone in your home. While they’re not easy to misplace (they’re just a bit bigger and heavier than your keys…), it does happen. It can also be a safety device, if you share its functionality with others. In the instance you are so wrapped up in your ride that you get a bit lost or experience an accident or injury, you know that someone will be able to find your jetski, and so you. There are spot trackers that sync with smartphones (much like Find my Phone works) and specific anti-theft trackers which are more designed for your use, or for the authorities. 


Jetski anchor


Anchoring your PWC is a bit different to anchoring a boat, and finding one isn’t the easiest thing (you will have to go to specialty stores in person or online). You need one that will fit on your Sea-Doo, and is the right weight (enough to keep the jetski still, while also not dragging it down). However, the time to research and find one that suits your PWC is going to really pay off, especially if you love long rides and will likely pause and sit for breaks, or just to take in the surroundings.


Waterproof phone covers


Phones have become a pretty vital part of our lives, and it’s not about scrolling through TinstakTokbook. They are actually really practical for your ride in a couple of different ways. As mentioned earlier, they can be part of your security and tracking measures, but they are also nifty for GPS and even music. It’s also an added safety measure; if you’re still in range, you can contact someone should you find yourself in any trouble. A dry bag that stays on your jetski permanently and you just store your phone there, or a see-through case that covers your phone when it’s in a holster or handlebar holder. They’re typically an inexpensive but highly effective addition to your PWC arsenal.


Weatherproof cover


Even if you have your PWC in covered storage when it’s out of use, a waterproof cover is invaluable. Preserving the value and condition of your Sea-Doo makes these an almost non-negotiable; they will ensure you don’t risk rust and corrosion with rain, frost and condensation (even in undercover storage areas), protect it from gathering dust (which can cause erosion and scratches) and stops any electronic accessories from being ruined.


First Aid Kit


So while not specifically a PWC accessory, if you can get one that is in weatherproofed packaging and can fit on your jetski safely, it’s vital to bring one along with you for every ride. While you do your best to be safe on your rides, all kinds of accidents can happen when you’re in the water, on a motorised vessel. From minor scratches and grazes to removing ticks and more serious gashes, first aid kits can ensure you have something on hand before you can get back to land.
