I would also learn what features and motors are available, so I'd know what I'm looking for. Reverse/brake and audio systems are pretty cool while older SC machines need the superchargers rebuilt at ~100 hours whereas newer ones are 200 or maintenance free.

Ultimately, the suggestion to have a shop give it a look-see is a good one.

Hey Think. I don't remember you doing a lot of jet ski research. Did you ever mention that on the Forum?
