Hey everybody,

I'm very new to the world of Sea Doo's but have been very interested for the past few years. I have found a 00' 2000 Challenger with the 200hp Merc Optimax Jet. It's in really nice shape for 10+years old. We took it out for a drive and it was interesting in how it steers, seemed to pull to the left but it sounds like that's normal. Other than that it was fast but after we ran it and stopped to talk the motor had a tough time starting up and wouldn't idle. The dealer said he would have them look at that but that he didn't know if they could adjust anything.

So what I'm asking for is before I make and offer on the boat what should I have the dealer replace? They said they went through it and the compression was strong across all 6 cylinders. Other than that I don't know what they did or replaced. It sounds like the fuel filters are known to go out, should I have them replaced and what other things should I have done. Thanks for the help!

Also they are asking $9500 for it but I'm hoping to get it for less.
