6 Must Have Items for Your New WaveRunner!

It's hard to beat having fun on the water on a new WaveRunner at the Lake of the Ozarks! If you're thinking about buying a WaveRunner at the Ozarks this year, we know you won't regret it once you hit the water for the first time. Once you pick out the PWC that is right for you, you're not quite done shopping. At Surdyke Yamaha we want to keep you safe and prolong the life of your new PWC at the Lake of the Ozarks. Below are six things you need for your new PWC!

Life Jackets

When adventuring out on the lake, you really must have a life jacket. It is against the law to not wear your life jacket when out on your WaveRunner. Not only that, but 79% of people who were killed in boating accidents were not wearing their life jacket. You'll want to make sure that the one you wear will fit you well, so you ought to try them on to find the perfect fit. You'll also want a variety of other sizes for when you take guests out.

Cover

A cover for your WaveRunner is a necessity that you don't want to skip out on. Whether you store your WaveRunner in a building or out at the dock, you will want a cover to protect it. When making an investment like this, it is always worth it to invest just a little more to protect it from damage, dirt, and weather.

Trailer

If you have the option to get a trailer, always take it. A trailer may seem optional to some, but it really is necessary. Even if you are docking your WaveRunner, you will most likely need to move it at some point. You don't want to be in a pinch for a trailer later and not be able to get one.

Ropes

You want to be able to tie your WaveRunner at the dock when you're done, and you want to make sure and have the right ropes or dock lines to do so. Surdyke Yamaha is a great place to get your WaveRunner accessories at the Lake of the Ozarks. We have an online store where you can find accessories, or we would love for you to come visit us and let us help you find what you need.

Bumpers

Bumpers are a must when you are at the dock. They will protect your watercraft from getting damaged. You should really have two bumpers and 2 bumper lines to be prepared.

Fire Extinguisher

Boats and PWC can potentially be a fire hazard. The motors or the fuel systems are extremely flammable with the gasoline, oil, and grease, so you'll want a fire extinguisher that can handle that possibility. Though you can't carry it with you while on your WaveRunner, you can keep it with you at your dock. You can also carry it in your vehicle as part of your lake day supply kit. Don't be caught unprepared.
