LOL, here you guys, here I go again..

Im a little apprehensive in removing the driveshaft, I know I fixed my own 1996 XP and it felt good, however, im not sure If I want to dwell into removing the pump and changing hull fittings etc. on my 1995 Seadoo Sportster, I just want to sell it...

I found a local Seadoo Mechanic (thank God!), whos willing to do the whole driveshaft assembly (he sounds like he know what hes doing..)

How much should I spend on this? Or do you think I can do this? I rebuilt my carburetors, changed out grey lines, installed my own reverse cable, and changed out my voltage regulator...

probably be 65/hr for 4 hours.
is it worth it??
 
Why do you want to remove the shaft on a boat that you are selling.....something broken???
 
It's all the same parts as your XP... so why pay someone to do it?

OK... maybe it "sounds" bigger than it really is, somehow when I actually get the guts to start it, I finish it and it wasnt so bad!

The gentleman wants to charge me $350, usually that's a big motivator for me to do it myself! :)

Also, imagine it can also be the impeller and wear ring.. and that will be more money!
