Increasing the Value of Your Jet Ski for Sale

By Low Jeremy

After you have bought your Jet Ski, you probably would think why would you sell them after some time. Well, the fact is, no matter how much you dearly love your jet ski, there will come a time that you will sell them from one reason or another. And when that time comes, you should get your PWC ready so that you will get paid with a price you want.

Whether you plan to sell your jet ski online or offline, one thing is for sure; your jet ski must be in perfect condition inside and out to increase its market value.

Just like selling used cars, you should project a well-maintained jet ski. And keeping it well-maintained starts from the moment you purchase your jet ski. It doesn�t matter if you bought a used or a brand new jet ski. What matters is that once you start using your jet ski, you should remember to keep it in perfect condition. And when the time comes when you have to sell your jet ski, you will have lesser problem dealing with scratches, corrosions, and other value degrading matters.

After using it, make sure that you dry its entire body. Do not let any salt water to penetrate inside (although most jet skis are sealed and with components that are rustproof).

Proper storage is the most important thing you must know if you want to have a great looking jet ski. Since it will stay most of the time in your garage, your jet ski must be kept in a dry place. Keep it covered. Avoid exposing it to rain and sunlight. As much as possible clean it regularly even if it is covered and not in use.

If it happens to have minor scratches, you can buy rubbing compounds that can effectively remove these. Spending little on these would increase the value of your jet ski. In case of corrosion and dents, there are shops that can remove them without costing you so much. Again, a little spending would increase the �buyability� of your jet ski.

All these are sure guarantee that you can sell your jet ski at a higher price. And oh, you must remember that in order for you to get a better value out of your jet ski, you must keep the engine maintained. It must not only look good, it should also run excellently.

Hints On ranger 26 sailboat

There is no engineering limit to the size of jet boats, though the validity of their use depends a lot on the type of application. Classic prop-drives are generally more efficient and economical at low speeds (up to about 20 knots) but as boat speed increases beyond this the extra hull resistance generated by struts, rudders, shafts etc means waterjets are more efficient in the 20-50 knot range. Also, in situations where you need very large propellers turning at slow speeds (such as tug boats) the equivalent size waterjet would be simply too big to be practical. For these reasons the vast majority of waterjet units are installed in high speed vessels and in particular situations where shallow draught, manoeuvrability and load flexibility are main concerns.

We have an ICOM IC-M700PRO SSB Radio Telephone installed in sailing yacht "Gallivanter". What is the simplest and most cost effective upgrade which would enable us to send & receive e-mail at sea? I understand I'll need to purchase some sort of modem and sign-up with a service provider. Options abound and I'm just curious about which is the best / cost effective way to go in these modern times.

Piracy Attempts On Cruising Yachts - Analysis of the 1st 9 months of 2007.

Fri, 16 Nov 2007 16:04:23 +0200
This analysis of reported attempted attacks on Yachts sailing the world has been carried out by Cruiserlog Moderators in order to evaluate the events/incidents from a cruisers point of view. It is not meant to be a criticism of the ICC International Maritime Bureau's Piracy Report Center's Q3 report for 2007. They receive reports from ships, boats and yachts and précis these for publication in their weekly piracy report which is then widely circulated. It is probable that the IMB is not able to check the veracity of the initial incident, therefore having to accept it at face value even though it may sound incomplete, inaccurate or even exaggerated.
