The best thing that worked for me was to just keep them wet before sliding in. Have a passenger in the boat splash on the rails, or lean over your watercraft before sliding in.
Also try to do it in one smooth motion. I stretched the back muscles plenty of times trying to pull my waverunner in after stopping mid-way.
Good luck and Enjoy it, these things are great. I just put mine away for the winter. It will be on the for sale block come spring.

It's a combination of horsepower and the right impeller. The three seaters seem to have more low-end grunt than the two seaters unless you have a higher hp two-seater.
My GP1200r is 155hp stock, but I had some caviation issues at first. I had to be sure to upgrade to an open grate and add the pump seal kit to really get it up on plane easily. Now it planes out easily with 4 adults and a cooler of beer. A person just has to set their expectations that this is not a 50mph cruiser.
I bought mine for just the reason of getting more people and more beer to the sandbar. We now had tunes and a nice place to hang out while taking turns on the waverunner. I would never sell it if my wife had not gotten boat envy this summer and we purchased our SeaDoo X20. It's a nice move though.
I have some pics and video clips on my blog.

For the same reason I stopped putting armor all on my seat. It looks nice, but the combination of that and sunscreen on the legs and WEEEEEE!! Right of the back!
