**
I apologize for having to relist this boat. My previous listing I used
keywords in my description which is against classifieds board policies and I was
unaware. This is a real listing and I will be selling this boat to the
highest bidder. See my feedback file to see I'm a great buyer and seller
on classifieds board for several years so bid with confidence. **This boat is so much fun it will be really hard to part with. Just take a look at these photo's and you will see how well kept it has been. The gelcoat is nice and shiny with no major typical dock damage. The interior is bright with no rips/tears. Included is a matching bimini top to help keep the sun off of you and the swim platform makes for a fun place to dive into some cool refreshing water from. You WILL not find a cleaner boat of this age as it's been stored inside the garage to help protect it. The mechanicals have all been gone through by a Certified Mechanic and has been found to have only 92 hours !! The boat has been used 90% fresh water and fresh water flushed after every use in salt water. This is a true gas and go boat that will deliver hours upon hours of fun. The trailer is included and the tires, bearings, and lights are in good working order. Please feel free to call me at phone with any further questions.
Here's what the experts had to say about this boat when tested new:
It took a little time to get accustomed to handling this new jet-powered boat from Sea-Doo. Turn the wheel clockwise in reverse, for instance, and the bow turns the same direction as the wheel. Or crank the wheel at 35 mph and the boat is immediately facing the opposite way, ready for another omnidirectional move. Yeah, it took about six minutes before we had it down pat.
The boat takes its name from the four-stroke Rotax technology found in Sea-Doos watercraft engines. Its designed to burn less fuel and practically no oil. Four-stroke tech makes this 155-hp machine legal in areas where two-strokes havebeen banned and welcome in areas where silence is appreciated, thanks to the sound dampening double-muffler exhaust and a rubbermat under the engine hatch. And, by incorporating side-shoot gates that send water out of the jets at an angle rather than straight out, the boat is easier to handle in reverse.
Handling was simple going forward and in spins too. The Sportster rides and tracks true thanks to stability-enhancing strakes. We could feel the hull grab through sharp S-turns, before allowing the boat to kick back out. The cockpit sits so low and the boat maneuvers so freely we felt as if we were right on the water.
We drove the Sportster differently from all the boats we tested. Wed get it on plane in 2.5 seconds and take it into shallow areas, the 12-inch draft and no outdrive erasing any concerns
Entry-level jet boats arent known to be full-featured. But we stumbled across a CD player, a pop-up ski pylon and nonskid entries on the bow and transom. Storage is better than expected, too, with a long in-floor locker, a lockable compartment at the front of the helm and a large area under the engine hatch thats accessed by punching a tab inside the helm storage area. We suggest traveling with a light load -- and letting it all hang out.
Final Take:Its even fun to watch
We Also Like
1. Digital Encoded Security System means it wont startwithout the original lanyard.
2. Closed-loop cooling system prevents raw water from enteringengine cooling ports.
3. Padded armrest on top of gunwale for throttle arm.
4. Seats have mesh inserts so water can drain into a holdingarea.
5. Molded forward area for nav lights.
6. Insulated cooler built into port side of bow.
