Sea-Doo Switch pontoon boat-triple fatal in Maine

I have often wondered about how the switch was going to work out. As the PWC market has always done, sea doo was looking for a way to capitalize on a market that was not yet tapped. As I think code man comment, these things scream I am new to boating.... After seeing a few up close I just don't understand the attraction. I do think there are bodies of what where they would/could be fun. But on larger bodies of water I see them as an accident waiting to happen. I always felt like they would be way to easy to stuff into a wave....

Don't know as another person posted that they should be pulled from the market...... But I think they need to advertised differently, they are not a take the family out for an afternoon on the water, type craft.... they are a Jet ski / PWC set up for wild craziness.......
