I bought two new skis over the weekend, I am selling my Polaris skis.
I will let them go for $3995.00. I am pretty firm on this price.
There are no mechanical issues with either ski, they run very well. There are a few cosmetic bruises on the rub rails just due to normal use. Neither have been in a collision nor has there ever been any mechanical (engine) repair needed. I have fogged the engines and winterized the skis religiously every season. Neither have been in any form of salt water. These ARE STATIC drive skis which means they WANT to stay up. I have owned them for 10-years and I have never rolled one. That said, others have pulled down on the handle bars when loading and rolled them as they were simply not boarding from the rear. They both have bilge pumps and operate automatically or with a manual over ride on the handle bars. I have include MANY pictures and I WELCOME any questions. The reason I am selling these is, I bought 2 new Sea Doos over the weekend (2009 and a 2010 model).
Gas can in picture is NOT included; it is simply hiding my license plate number. The storage box will NOT be included.
They absolutely run great and I am certain you will have many many hours of fun on them.
As I removed the batteries and I was deployed for two years, the hour meters are not accurate. I do not believe that either ski has more than about 120 operating hours. However, the SLT says it has nearly 300 hours but that is because it is a replaced MFD (Multi Function Display) that I purchased to replace my defective MFD. I have my original MFD which you are welcome to if you so desire.
Pick up will be in Ohio and or I will meet you in the middle based on a reasonable distance.
:::::IMPORTANT NOTE:::::
You WILL get a trailer, it will either be the one pictured or the 2011 Trailer I bought with my new Sea Doos over the weekend. I have not decided which trailer I want as of yet. But as I said, you WILL get a trailer as part of this auction. Both trailers have clean title.
First is 1997 SLT-780 with OEM Polaris Cove.
Has a clean title.
Easily runs 40 to 46 MPH
Three Seater
Has Reverse
Towing cleat
New Battery (bought this season so it is only 2 months old).
Spring Loaded Loading Step.
Note about the step; A friend of mine went to hop on and the screws were loose. The bolts sheered off. You should see a line holding the step up in the pictures. I did this for safety reasons so no one tried to use the step until I got it fixed. I will either fix it before you take delivery and or I will lower the price by two-hundred dollars allowing you to get it professionally serviced in your area.
Second is a SLTX 1050 with OEM Polaris Cover.
Has a clean title.
Runs slightly faster than the SLT 780
Three Seater
Has Reverse
Towing cleat
Newer Battery (bought last season ).
