Are high engine hours a dealbreaker on a used boat?

In this video, Jack from BoardCo explains how engine hours on a boat compare to miles on a truck—and why a boat with 750 or even 1,000 hours can still be a great buy. You’ll learn what matters more than just the number on the hour meter, and why a well-used boat may actually be more reliable than one with low hours.

We cover:

What engine hours mean and how to interpret them

How boat engines are designed to run (not sit)

How boating location and seasonality affect hours

What to look for in a used boat beyond just the hour count
