Used buyer verdict
Kawasaki Ultra 310 family is a 2018-2024 performance touring PWC aimed at performance and touring. The $18,500-$37,000 low confidence estimate makes the most sense for riders who match the trim to their use and budget for hours, pump wear, corrosion, trailer condition, and service history. Supercharged or performance versions deserve a higher maintenance reserve.

- Annual service, winterization, impeller, oil, filters, battery, fuel-system, and storage records.
Quality and reputation
Known for STX recreational models and Ultra touring/performance PWCs; Canadian listing volume may be thinner than Sea-Doo/Yamaha.
Resale outlook
Resale depends heavily on hours, service history, hull and jet-pump condition, and trailer quality. Canadian listings are limited, so the range is best used as a starting point.
Engine and layout
Best suited to performance, touring, higher maintenance complexity. Common power options include Kawasaki 1,498 cc inline four-cylinder, supercharged and intercooled. Compare drive type, horsepower, hours, and included equipment.
Specs use manufacturer material where available; exact year, trim, and equipment can vary. BoatLens ranges are planning estimates, not appraisals or quotes.
