Before You Buy

Pre-Purchase Jet Ski Inspections

Buying a used jet ski? Don't gamble on what's under the hood. Our certified techs inspect any PWC before you hand over the cash using manufacturer-grade computer diagnostic software — compression, hull, jet pump, electrical, and full history review. Mobile service across Long Island.

The Inspection

What We Check

A thorough walkthrough of every system that can cost you thousands if it's bad. Done at the seller's location or your driveway.

01

Engine & Compression

Cylinder compression test on every cylinder, oil condition, hour count vs. wear, signs of overheating or water ingestion.

02

Hull Integrity

Stress cracks, hidden repairs, gel coat issues, sponson damage, drain plug area, transom condition.

03

Jet Pump & Impeller

Impeller wear, wear ring clearance, drive shaft play, bearing condition — the most expensive overlooked area.

04

Computer Diagnostics & Electrical

Manufacturer diagnostic software scan to pull fault codes and engine data. Battery health, starter operation, gauges and warning lights, MFD/display function, wiring harness condition.

05

Cooling & Exhaust

Cooling lines, exhaust manifold condition, signs of salt or sand intrusion, intake grate damage.

06

Records & ID

Service history review, HIN (hull ID) verification, proper registration document verification.

07

Trailer (If Included)

Bunk condition, wheel bearings, tire age, light operation, frame rust, coupler and safety chains.

08

Test Run (When Possible)

If conditions allow, we'll start the ski and listen, check water flow, RPM response, and reverse/iBR function.
