Before you ride check your drain plugs, look for loose hoses, check coolant, check your drain plugs, then start up on water and warm up a bit to check oil. On a new ski ths might be a bit much. When you pull out drain plugs, check for extra water in the hull. And when you get home clean and dry the plastics, along with flushing water through it while running it for a bit. Again that isn't a huge deal on fresh water but not a bad idea. Also pull the seat, and let the engine dry out well.

The oil needs to be sucked from the motor and cranked a bit to get it all out, I had my dealer do it for 130 bucks, worth it in my eyes.
