Nowadays, horsepower controls the conversation when a new watercraft arrives on the market. While there are many speed demons out there, many people want to go out and ride in comfort. Sea-Doo has built a machine for those who want a stylish and comfortable machine without sacrificing performance. The 2017 GTX offers five different models that are crafted for you.
What is the secret to a powerful craft with comfort? The answer is providing the market with horsepower ranges from 155hp to 300hp along with the industry’s only suspension seat. Sea-Doo wanted to create a watercraft that could be ridden all day and not have the rider in the pain the next day.
Sea-Doo has spent large amounts of money to research and develop Ergolock, a seat that is both comfortable for most all rider sizes, and a cockpit that is intuitive and uncluttered. Along with that, all models of the 2017 GTX are equipped with the second version iBR. This is the industry’s only on-water brake system, and has been awarded by the United States Coast Guard. With this braking system it will stop up to 160 feet sooner that a watercraft of the same size without a braking system. To top it all off, Sea-Doo has added new handle-grips with a place to rest your palms to prevent cramping when using the throttle.
Not everybody goes out to ride for top run speeds, there is a larger population that enjoys the nice evening cruise which will be even better now with Sea-Doo’s iTC Intelligent Throttle Control that includes ECO, Touring, Sport Modes along with Cruise Control and Slow Mode. With all these intelligent features it only seemed possible with a redesigned S3 hull (Stepped, Stable, and Strong). The technology that was put into this hull has proven to be one of the best all-around full-sized hulls providing an optimal ride without sacrificing performance.
If you opt out and choose to order a non-suspension GTX you will have a much larger glove box, Sea-Doo watertight bins to have a total of 42.8 gallons of storage.
