What to check before buying a used PWC

The fundamentals are the same in every country. Use this checklist before agreeing on a price.

  • Engine hours and service history

    Ask for the meter reading and any service records. As a general rule, a well-maintained PWC under 100–150 hours is still in early life.

  • Hull and pump condition

    Inspect the hull for cracks, deep scratches and signs of impact. Check the jet pump, impeller and wear ring for damage.

  • Ownership and registration

    Confirm the seller is the legal owner and that the PWC is properly registered in the country where it's stored.

  • On-water test

    Whenever possible, run a short on-water test. Check cold start, idle, top speed and any unusual vibration or smoke.

  • Trailer and storage

    Ask whether a road-legal trailer is included and where the PWC has been stored (covered, dry storage is best).

  • Final paperwork

    Use a written sales contract and keep proof of payment. Never pay in full before seeing the PWC in person.
