I put money down on both - anticipating Nov - April as a time frame . the dealer has been allocated these units and neither had a deposit on them. I know the trailer roller on the boat needs an immediate upgrade. I need safety vests, docking ropes, fenders, anchor, tube and rope,...what else? they will be on the private side of Lake Anna if that matters. the boat comes with a galvanized trailer and I am researching the best trailer for the PWC. I would prefer a tandem axle trailer for 2 PWC if there is such a thing.
 
Need a crane for PWC on back of AR250
 
i have had the boat for a month or so. the dealer provided air horn, vests, fenders, ropes, anchor and rope, throwable,

So far i have bought
oakley glasses - forgot model but blue lenses help a lot
clamp pliers in case it needs to be towed
better rear view mirror - not the permanent solution
first aid kit
tools incl carpet knife in case she eats a rope
i have a yeti 35 but probably mostly use my roadie
