JET SKI HISTORY

by GAVIN WARD on JANUARY 30, 2010

"Jet Ski" became foremost the colloquial term for stand up personal watercraft, because in 1974 Kawasaki was responsible for a limited production of stand-up models as designed by the recognized inventor of Jet Skis, Clayton Jacobson II. In 1976, Kawasaki began mass production of the JS400-A. JS400s came with 400 cc two-stroke engines and hulls based upon the previous limited release models. It became the harbinger of the success Jet Skis would see in the PWC market through the 1990s. In 1986 Kawasaki broadened the world of Jet Skis by introducing a one person model with lean-in "sport" style handling and a 650 cc engine, dubbed the X-2. Then in 1989, they introduced their first two passenger "sit-down" model, the Tandem Sport/Dual-Jetters (TS/DJ) with a step-through seating area.

Kawasaki began using four-stroke engines in 2003. Combining this with the use of other technologies, such as superchargers,some engines can produce up to 260 horsepower (190 kW) as seen in the newly released Kawasaki Ultra 260X and Sea-Doo RXP, RXT and RXP-X.

As the riding of personal watercraft evolved through the 1990s, other companies like Yamaha, Bombardier and Polaris, elevating the use of personal watercraft to worldwide sport in both racing and freestyle.
