Seadoo HX 951

Someone's selling a 1995 HX it looks like and implanted a 951 into it, asking $3900 for it.

Just wondering what your all's thoughts would be on something like this?

A lot of the work of that conversion is adapting the 155mm pump to the 140mm hole. If they left the stock pump in there then it would have trouble using the power.

From the seller: " The pump was professionally rebuilt by Skat-Trak. The pump is a Jet performance pump. In 2019, it received new bearings and seals and new 145 stainless wear ring. The 16/22, 145mm Swirl blade was repaired and installed. " No idea who Team Faith is either, but apparently they're the ones who did the work.

Apparently he says he clocked it at 64mph?

At 3,900 seems a little steep, but honestly don't know the worth of something like this. Have only sent the seller a couple messages.

The price is not bad really. people race those and pay 5-6K for race ready boats with all the issues worked out. Some of the sellers Skat stuff does not add up. I've never heard of a 145mm pump just 140, 142, 144, and 148. Is it a rebuilt Skat pump or just a stock pump with a Skat impeller? The answer to that is a $1000+ difference.
