Now scared of the 951..

[sailsmanship]

I have been looking for a couple of used skis, and with your help I have at least determined what I don't want. I am staying away from the 951 motor. I found a couple for sale and would like to know what you think. Guy has a 1997 Kawasaki 1100, 1996 Seadoo GTI with trailer and is asking 4700.00 Decent ski's? decent price?

Re: Now scared of the 951..

it is hard to say I just found 2 2002 sea doo gtx's on a double trailer both have the di 951 engines for the price of 8500 not a bad deal but the 951 di engines worry me so I passed on it myself, the gti has a pretty undesireable hull design, and it is only worth about 2 g's in good condition, the kaw 1100 isn't a bad engine as far as I hear but I never owned one, the price for both sounds pretty reasonable, but not totally great.

Sailsmanship<br /><br />Yeah thats a great price. I sold a 1996 Yamaha 1100 and a 92 Seadoo gtx 9 both were super clean though basically showroom condition for 5700$.<br />Of course that was right before 4th of july middle of summer and in Southern California<br /><br />Rob
