just got my new issue of watercraft world, octane article full of blems, says the the stock super jet radared at 47, then the stock kawi slower at 46.5 and the polaris at 51.9

stock yammys go 44, stock kaws just under 48 and the yet to be released polaris is around 54.5

I'm sorry but I only beleive in internet media anymore, internet media can be edited if their is a problem, it is current, instead of three months old! Just like snail mail with stamps and such, magazines have seen their day

I see in the future subscriptions to online magazines not only be viable but the rule rather then the exception!

the only problem is that I can't read the internet while I am on the toilet but I am working on that!!!

Heya Momar,

Believe me, i'm the same way.. thinkin mags are 3 months old, etc.. the only way I'd be involved in a magazine is if we could have a short lead time. ie: we're planning to have pics from rounds 1 & 2 in our June issue of xmi ( http://www.tngpublishing.com/xmi/ ). An example of sorry lead time is the march issue of PWI had a story on the maldives w/ rick roy. That trip was from May of 2001!! that's 10 month old news!!! I couldn't believe it...

I tried the approach of online magazine for a while (pwctoday.com), and will still do it, but there's absolutely no money in it to become a full time job. People don't want to pay monthly subscriptions, and you can't charge what its worth to advertise on there. PWC companies are used to advertising in magazines. We get some advertising on our site, and we thank the companies that help support us, but if we were to charge the 'going rate' for advertising on there we'd have no advertisers.

Anyway, i hear ya when you say internet is the way to go, but right now the industry can't support it We'll keep keepin on though cause it's fun

Sorry guys but as much as I like getting quick up to date info on the internet mags, I still like to just kick back and actually a piece of paper. Plus I like to look at the pics. I net is cool but too much time in front of the puter is not good for ya.

32 here....Still racing Novice Vet Ski on a limited SuperJet that goes around 53 mph. Another 5 mph wouldn't be enough.......nor would another ten years slow me down.
