Anything I need to look out for or ask when buying a used 250 ProXS. Trying to get something from 2104 and up as there seems to be quite a few for sale.

Get a current readout from the computer to show the hours and performance of the motor, any fault codes or other issues, When was the last service done on the lower unit, and various filters, when was spark plugs changed last. Do a compression check on all cylinders and make sure all the coils are firing.

Hours, compression, MercNet report on prior history, if any warranty work done. Check lower unit oil. Several other small things would give it a nice quick bill of health.
