Ski racing in Boston Harbor?

[HarryConnolly]

Has anyone done that? It would be pretty sweet. Starting line from a wharf

What’s east coast racing like? It would be good marketing and cities need events…

Edit: after a private message I thought more about this. What’s the problem with jetski racing? I am a huge motogp and f1 fan. I know many people across the globe who love and subscribe to both motogp and f1. Racing is a sport, my favorite sport. Most people who are into real racing like Motogp or F1 travel or own yachts. F1 just spent over a billion on Formula E boat racing. Jet skis are a product that is consumed world wide. What is stopping an organization from touring with Formula boat racing and racing jet ski’s? Sports betting makes propping up sport leagues easier. I just can’t help but think, I’ve traveled and rented a jetski across the entire global. Why aren’t we globally racing them?

Jet ski world series, uim aquabike world championship, jjsa in japan, etc, etc.

Why don’t they package into one and make a formula type series? How have I never seen this on tv?

Do they broadcast it on tv like race cars or motorcycles

I feel like I’m missing something

unfortunately this is not 1992. You missed any significant tv coverage by 30ish years.

It's all on youtube. Huntington Beach, Havasu races, World Finals, Poland, France, Thailand, and Italy are some of the best to watch due to rougher water and good participation.
There's a million reasons why jet ski racing isn't bigger than it is. Money, accessibility, visibility, most races are boring to watch, poorly run(world finals).

I’ll never forget renting Wave Race from Blockbuster for the N64 over and over again. I’m still thinking how cool ski racing is. I’ll host a race before I die.
