Ok, so that I understand, when you say "jet ski", do you mean a "sit down style" personal water craft? I think officially Jet Ski is a trademark of Kawaski .
Yeah those weird stand up kind, are those just a product of the 80s/90s or are they still used a lot? Seem pretty rare now if at all.

If the skier likes to cut hard, it'll pull the arse end out

Jet Skies are fine for pulling skiers. It only gives me issues if I slalom. But it doesn't give my sister (who weighs less than me) problems.
ETA: have no idea about the hp though

I have wakeboarded, skied, kneeboarded, and tubed behind a personal watercraft before and am over 200lb. didn't have a problem getting me up at all and it was fun to try to turn the jetski sideways while cutting.

Depends on the weight of the unit and thrust. I had an 1100zxi with a bunch of performance stuff, hp was above 170, on a light unit. It could pull a skier, but it pretty much sucked for everyone involved.
