Saw this on Craigslist and thought y'all might appreciate the effort and cash this guy has in this thing. Plus the fact that it probably takes him hours to get off the ramp due to everyone asking questions about it.
*not mine for sale, don't know owner, just posting for my own amusement.

If you google "jet ski rack" or "jet ski fishing" you will see tons of images of skis done similarly.

@Andy S Wow! I didn't really know this was a thing. Never seen anything like it before. That "t-top" looks like it would get in the way while casting one of your 12 rods. I see that pic you posted and can't help but think of my dad's favorite phrase, "that's as useful as tits on a bull".

There are some cool set ups on Greenhulk also. May be easier for some to launch this than a large boat by themselves. Plus easy on fuel. Most are running shallow or by bridges and such. The daytime running would be an issue though not being able to launch early or pick up late.

Yeah this has become popular. Most people who I have heard of out rigging these skis said there main reason was they didn't want to take 24-26 ft boat out for just them to go fishing offshore as it was easier to manage the ski by them selves. Other side is cost you could buy a new ski and our rig it for under 20k but most acceptable offshore fish boats run a lot more then that. I think there is even a tv show just slab out jet ski fishing now.

LOL. Just sent that dude an email. I don't know why, but I feel like I need that in my life. Not so much the top, but looking through his website...boy, a full dash with GPS and tunes built in, and a windshield...would be pretty badass.
