Check out some of the videos, handling is important.

Yes the jets are great. I have a 21' Jetcraft. As to the stick steering,
have never driven one, but have a friend both a 20' and a 25' Precision Weld
and both are stick steer. He loves them as well as the other people with a
stick. Have not driven one, but looks like it is very easy. One nice thing
is most have a center seat for the driver, so you get good visibility to
both sides.
