Ive been talking to someone that has a 96 superjet for sale. The price is what i was hoping for and sounds good so far. im thinking about going to check it out later this week. I was wondering things i should look for. Im assuming compression, motor mounts, hull damage. Ive never owned a jetski before so any help is appreciated.

On the testing compression topic i know its better to test compression when the engine is warm. Can you test the compression with the engine cold?

One last thing. The owner says he doesnt have a title but has a vin verification from a previous registration. I live in massachusetts and im pretty sure i can register with a bill of sale and previous reg but i just want to double check. Like i said ive never owned a jetski before and just want to try and cover all the bases. Would hate to buy a jetski and then not be able to register it. (i am buying out of state)

You are saying you're buying from out of state. Does that state, like most, have a title law? Suggest you take registration # and check with your State boaters registration, they'll talk to you on the phone. Don't buy it , if you can't register it. You can check compression with the engine cold.

If this is the 1 that's in new hampshire it seems like a real good deal. the thing looks clean and has alot of goodies. I would def look into the title situation tho!
