    I found a Kawasaki jetski that was sitting in a strangers backyard for 13 years. Fortunately, for 12 of those years it (allegedly) had a cover on it. Watch as I take this Kawasaki Ultra 130 apart and attempt to get it back on the water.

    I got weirdly obsessed with boat rebuilds about 6 months ago and thought I had watched just about every video out there on youtube. This content was as good as any I've seen. I think the commentary is hilarious and you have a new sub. Can't wait for more vids!

    Nice. Always a good feeling when a project ski fires up for the first time.

      Agree. Even better when it gets in the water and actually works. There is a special type of satisfaction when working on watercraft.

      @Ed Gasket I agree. I have 12 at the moment. I like to buy project skis when I can find them for a good price. I like to get them running then give them performance upgrades before selling them. I'm mainly interested in 90s Kawasaki 650 and 750 skis.

    In the future you can usually really easily tell if it's the pump or the engine by just looking at what's moving. You can see in the clip that the rubber connector is turning the crankshaft a little bit while you're actually flexing the steel shaft going to the pump.

      growing up we always called stand up's jet skis. I guess that's because most of the stand ups were kawi's. Waverunner was reserved for anything that had a seat. Hard habit to break!
