Whats it worth....Kawasaki waverunner?

Question

I have never owned a waverunner. Someone offered to trade me 2 1995 Kawasaki 650 waverunners for something I have . They said that they have been sitting in the garage for 7 years...they probably have about 20hrs on each of them. So far that is all I know about them. Assuming they are in good shape how much do you think they are worth?

Answer 1

Well, in the "boating world" we consider about 40 hrs. to be one summers worth of fun on any engine (about) in the north east. So they should be 1/2 a summer old, so we have two 13 year old PWC (Personal Water Craft.....a 1995 model was made in 94) with half a summer on them. HHHHHHmmmmmmm, sounds like one of those "TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE" deals, were they winterized ? Fuel Drained from them, washed down, greased, fogged, etc. after about 10 years old, outboards are worth very litte, and the motor is what holds the real value in a boat. I'm sure that the PWC is similar engine wise, and don't forget, you might see somebody leasurley boating, everyone I've always seen on a wave runner has been beating the monkey snot out of it ! and remember that it's "TWO" of them, so the maint. cost's just doubled, They are way dangerous too, I Plucked a kid out of the water two summers ago on a PWC, he jumped a wake and slammed into a bouey, the coast guard had to put him on MY BOAT and run him into shore to an ambulance, It's not your environment out there, thats what makes it so dangerous, I prefer boats, I won't go in anything other than a "BOSTON WHALER" !

Answer 2
