Don’t waste your time

[WTR&PWR]

I don’t own jet skis so they really aren’t my thing but my brother will buy and sell just about anything he can make some money on. He sees these skis today and figures there’s some money to be made so he runs down to check them out. Guy says they fire up and are in great shape. Here’s the photos on the ol’ interweb:

Here is what he sees when he gets there. Guys said to him “they don’t leak” when my brother asked how fast they sink lol what a waste of time. Win some lose some I guess.

They only leak when you stop moving forward real fast.

It’s all good if he provided a gallon of resin like one of the Craigslist boats I came across. LOL

 

[LazyLavey]

Yes, yes it did. Goes to show you never know til you get there.

My brother offered 2,000. Sadly it will either be someone like him who knows or someone who doesn’t and ends up taking on water on their maiden voyage.

Glad to see you found such a nice boat. I hope you’re enjoying it! We have been on the fence about selling the eagle so I haven’t posted so I’m not waisting anyones time.

"Doesnt leak"..lol but they now weigh 5000lbs for some reason.. "ohh just take the foam out"

 

[Brokeboatin221]

If someone can use proper English it’s most likely not in “good condition”. But I sure love boating in “good conditions”

They only leak when yu put them in the water

Maybe, but they're stable as hell

 

[Brokeboatin221]

Maybe, but they're stable as hell

But only do 13mph

I kinda feel sorry for the poor bastard that will end up buying those without even taking a look, but then again, I guess there is a sucker born every minute.

 

[Riverryder]

Ya also, Yamahas are Waverunners. Jetskis are made by Kawasaki. guy doesnt even know what hes selling which is always a good sign.

Anybody want to go for a ride in my Ford Corvette?? hmmm.... I just got an idea

 

[Brokeboatin221]

Lots of Jamuhas and zootzookies for sale

 

[Brokeboatin221]

Good conditions with Fox suspensions!

 

[Rayson1971]

One has az numbers. My guess old river rentals.

We tie off ours, never beached.
If they are beached 99% chance the pumps/impellers are gravel damaged.

I've seen a Ford powered corvette on the drag strip, he ended up in the wall and totalled the car. It was a tube chassis/fiberglass car, and on the scoop it said powered by the f-word. There was a slight cheer in the stands.

Auto ballast fill

 

[2FORCEFULL]

doesn't look like that hard of a fix....what did the owner say on adjusting the price for the fix????

 

[2FORCEFULL]

if they were in better shape wouldn't they bring about 12k??? 8k seems like a buyer beware price... I would have said, lets go water test them..... maybe could have got them for 4 or 5 k...

freakin people will say anything to get you there.....

That's because deep down it believed it was a mustang. The wall is the natural habitat of the mustang

He had a mustang and wrecked that, bought the roller vette after.

I took a jetski as trade for a shower tiling project. The bottom looked a bit like that. The ski had been washed up on a rocky beach apparently.

I had it fixed for a few hundred bucks and it worked great. Sold it a couple years later. For the right price, that's doable!

What was the end result with this deal?

 

[2FORCEFULL]

What was the end result with this deal?

I bought it and the owner was pissed at the broker for misrepresenting the boat so bad,,,

 

[Brokeboatin221]

Still a beautiful boat! Glad it worked out.

I always loved that video....you are boss of buy and sell!... "That is not relevant"...

 

[J DUNN]

It's clear that these haven't been ceramic coated.........

 

[Ace in the Hole]

The guy (inmate here) who just bought mine was telling me about how trashed some he looked at were... Ive been looking at some jet boats lately (hulls primarily), and people have way too much meth in their system when pricing/evaluating some of this stuff.
