Electric Jet Ski ! Anyone here have one?

I don't have one, but I gave them a little look when I was researching my new ski. This is what I found: https://www.theverge.com/2019/9/17/2...electric-specs.

I couldn't get past the 2-hour max battery to research capacity, controls, storage, etc.

About the same time, I read about Sea-Doo revealing a prototype. That's here: https://plugboats.com/seadoo-showcas...ectric-jetski/.

My 4-stroke Sea-Doo is no louder than any regular boat motor, and MUCH quieter than the go-fast boats, so that doesn't bother me, but if I could avoid fuel and maintenance and get a full day's ride, I'd consider electric. Until then, it's petrol for me.
