What do hours on Jetskis mean?

Question

like if they say the jetski has low hours

Answer 1

They do the same with boats. Compare it with a car. While the engine of a car may have 50,000 miles on it, the engine of a watercraft may have 1400 hours of use. It's a calculation of engine hours instead of mileage. If the jet ski was used frequently in a tropical climate, 100-150 hours per year is not uncommon. In a colder climate where the jet ski is only used a few months out of the year, expect 50-60 hours or less per year.
