OK..let me show you an example: I found this ad: 2002 Sea Doo Utopia 185 with Mercury 200 Opti Max Jet drive, trailer, cover, fish locater. Motor was rebuilt this winter has only 45 min on it. The pictures show the boat and interior to be really nice.
I contacted the seller, and he tells me the boat is going back in the shop because "there is a glitch with the injection" He says once that is fixed, this will be a nice reliable boat. He also says the jet was checked and found to be in good shape. I dont know if this has the electronic injection or the mechanical ( I will ask). Also, I don't know what was "rebuilt".
Based on this info, would you consider this boat? What, if anything would you ask the seller? They are asking $8900
Oh..and CheapPC, Did they use the Rotax engines without the supercharger in the challenger/utopia in the 18' boats? I was also told if you buy the dual engines, expect dual problems @ twice the cost.... thoughts???
