Wakes from jetboats?

In the past couple of years, I've noticed that the major jet boat companies have been putting out boats marketed to wakeboarders.

and Yamaha: http://www.yamaha-motor.com/boat/products/modelimage/422/8/1/0/image.aspx

The wake on these boats cann't be that great...right? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

if you want to do anything with a jet check out boicejet.com these guys make SICK wake jets that can go anywhere

no, your right the wakes are really mushy and soft behind jet boats. I had a yamaha ar230 and sold it after 1 season. If i didnt love wakeboarding i would still have it. So if you plan on wakeboarding even 10% of the time i still wouldnt get a jet boat! Just my .02

k.c.
I checked out that sight... those guys are nuts... I would never have the guts to take a boat the places those guys were going!

Too bad they didnt slow down enough to take a wake pic!
