Advice/Thoughts before buying a 2003 SeaDoo Utopia 185 w/ 200 HP Fuel Injected Mercury Jet Boat

Hello all! I'm new to jet boats and boats in particular but was curious about a SeaDoo Jet Boat I've been eyeing on craigslist for some time now.

It's a 2003 SeaDoo Utopia 185 w/ 200 HP Mercury and the seller is asking $9400. Seems to be in pretty good condition from what I see from the pictures.

Just thought I'd share so I could get some advice or thoughts/concerns about whether this is a good purchase the boat.

Hello, I own a 2002 Sea doo utopia 205 with a mercury 240efi. I love the boat, there is plenty of room and storage on mine. Very easy to clean and maintain cause there is no wood, all Fiberglass. Most of these boats do not have an hour meter so I would check compression before purchasing. I paid a little less that that, but mine had a few cosmetic stuff wrong with it
