ProWatercraft is lined up to host the low-impact Junior Stars event at IJSBA World Finals. They partnered with the IJSBA to put together a scaled-back version of the Junior Stars Event at the IJSBA World Finals in Lake Havasu City, AZ. The event takes place on October 4, 2020 and begins at 8am on the IJSBA World Finals starting line and ends at 10am.
Show ProWatercraft some love for helping to get this event running for the juniors. Visit their website for your stand-up jet ski needs. They carry products to make you go fast!
Due to COVID-19 concerns there will be no stations, activities, or prizes in 2020. The junior rider will be given time to get official course orientation and become familiar with the starting line procedure at the IJSBA World Finals.
The requirements for participating in this event are that riders must be registered to race a Junior Class at the IJSBA World Finals, watercraft must have passed the technical inspection, racers must wear technical gear, and must limit groups to rider and mechanic.
The IJSBA reminds attendees to remain socially distant and follow the state mandated mask rules so that the event can take place for the Junior riders. The IJSBA looks forward to seeing everyone and will go big in 2021!
With the IJSBA World Finals ready to kick off shortly in Lake Havasu City, the league is already looking into next year’s events.
This year’s schedule will definitely look a little different with much less attendance from racers, vendors, and spectators. In fact, there has been some racing class removals from the schedule.
Nonetheless, momentum is gaining across all of the major sanctioning bodies in watercraft racing and the IJSBA is also eager to get back to a normal year for 2021.
With that, they have announced that the Powerboat Nationals plans to hold a US National tour next year which is promising news.
According to this excerpt from the IJSBA release, “This exciting series will be held in conjunction with the Powerboat Nationals Pro Tunnel Boat tour. Organizers will be hosting an information booth at the 2020 IJSBA World Finals in Lake Havasu City, Arizona and will also be holding an information meeting for principal teams.”
We will hear more information about this in the coming weeks during the World Finals. For all the latest, you can head over to powerboatnationals.com.
We at The Watercraft Journal were well-aware that a new RXP-X was coming down the pike for Sea-Doo’s 2021 model year – even as far back as over a two years ago. In all honesty, we were a little afraid of the prospect of an all-new machine too, as the current RXP-X had such a strong fanbase.
The question wasn’t whether it could pack the punch equal to its full-sized RXT-X 300 brother, but whether it could rise up to the challenge of the closed course. The competition has been stiff in recent years, and Sea-Doo needed not just a home run, but a grand slam to win over the diehard performance market.
Debuting in 2012, the now outgoing RXP-X introduced the world to Sea-Doo’s T3 – or tight turning T-hull. The muscular 2-seater rode on a very aggressive, deep-keeled hull that flowed into a soft-edged inner chine and finally into a radiused outer chine. These rolled edges gave the musclecraft its now iconic cornering behavior.
Additionally, a single step at midships was designed to create added suction before the intake grate, keeping the hull planted better and the pump loaded. To those who could master the chop, drop and roll process, the RXP-X fit like a hirsute leather glove. For the uninitiated, the RXP-X’s lightning-quick reflexes could be…well, let’s just say, surprising.
Of course, fears of being ejected were now absent thanks to the innovation of Sea-Doo’s new Ergolock technology. Although introduced earlier on the full-sized S3-based RXT iS 255 and GTX Limited iS 255, Ergolock didn’t really come into its own until the new RXP-X 260’s reveal that year.
Deeply scalloped, padded coves and angled footwedges that locked the rider in place were borderline science fiction 9 years ago, and a supercharged-and-intercooled 260-horsepower (with “Sport” mode, no less) was like handing a kid a loaded gun. Sure, Johnny might learn to have a lot of fun with it; but he’s more likely to hurt himself.
This was the most race-ready personal watercraft we had seen from Sea-Doo at the time, so how could it possibly be topped? Enter the 2021 Sea-Doo RXP-X 300. As we’ve said before, the all-new RXP-X is easily the most ambitious race-ready 4-stroke to come from Sea-Doo. Period. From it’s GP-class, high-bolstered saddle to its one-of-a-kind T3-R hull, the new RXP-X makes a seriously bold statement:
And that is that Sea-Doo’s here to win. And if we’ve gotta kick in some teeth to do it, prepare to start drinking smoothies from now on. Sure, it’s packing the same 300 horsepower since 2016, but it’s using those ponies a helluva lot better. No slop. No slack. And zero waste.
What might surprise some of you is how much the redesigned 2021 Sea-Doo RXP-X 300 ($15,799) shares with the GTR 230. Both share the same acrylic molded CM-Tech fiberglass top deck, the versatile LinQ accessory and engine access panel, and even the same hood (well, the understructure that is). Why is this a good thing?
Easy, it gives Sea-Doo’s musclecraft the brand’s best overall storage – even more than the big daddy RXT-X or GTX – 40.6-gallons of space split up between a 37.8-gallon front bin and a sizeable 2.5-gallon glove box. And besides the 1,630cc ACE 300 powertrain that it shares with the aforementioned RXT-X and GTX Limited, it’s also got their massive 18.5-gallon fuel cell too.
So let’s talk differences. For 2021, the RXP-X drops 67-pounds, making it considerably lighter than the previous generation (780lbs. vs. 847lbs.), and it does it while retaining the same overall length (130.6-inches), and being .9-inches wider (49.2″ vs. 48.3″). So no, it’s definitely not bigger.
And while the supercharged-and-intercooled ACE 300 engine returns unchanged, the RXP-X wields a new top-loader intake and a highly polished, repitched prop producing greater thrust and initial hook-up. One last additional change was that Sea-Doo moved the engine and gas tank two inches (50mm) forward, placing greater emphasis on the nose – but more on that in a second.
Interestingly, relocating the engine required a new, longer driveshaft. Given the opportunity, Sea-Doo tweaked the design of it as well as that of the carbon ring seal. It’s not a noticeable change, but Sea-Doo has worked with its parts supplier to develop an improved carbon compound to hold up to the added rigors and torture that new RXP-X owners are certain to deliver.
All of this equates to a far superior power-to-weight ratio, and demonstrative gains in acceleration: Sea-Doo measured 0-to-50mph in 2.9-seconds, and 0-to-60mph in 3.6-seconds (versus the previous 3.9-seconds) – remember, it’s got Launch Control too. While units sold domestically will be restricted to a USCG-approved 68.5mph, our unrestricted test unit reached a GPS-confirmed unsustained peak speed of 73.8mph @ 8,000rpm (the speedometer read 75).
Yet, much of the RXP-X’s appeal isn’t found in its ability to run a straight line – heck, any ski can go straight – what really makes the RXP-X is how well it corners. For 2021, Sea-Doo didn’t completely redesign the T3 hull. Rather, engineers made nearly 30 subtle-yet-specific changes to make it more forgiving for less aggressive riders without losing its racy edge. Dubbed T3-R, the biggest standout in the new hull are its CM-Tech fiberglass construction and a series of serrations running along the inner chine at midships.
Coined by BRP as “Shark Gills,” these serrations are designed to break up the hull’s surface tension, aerating the water’s cohesion and making for a slightly looser, more gradual corner at lower speeds. But how does it work? Again, at slower speeds or in a gradual sweeping turn, the RXP-X rides on this second chine, which previously could “load up” or suddenly bite, whipping the RXP-X into a hairpin turn. By breaking up this surface, the RXP-X can progressively roll into a wide sweep with confidence.
Further changes were made at the tail, from the pump inlet back. In fact, the entire wetted surface at the tail was redesigned to improve hookup and reduce chine-walking. At its outermost edge is the same rounded chine as before, providing unbroken surface tension (ie. traction) when cornering hard on its rail. Yet, snapping a tight turn at wide open throttle is a different experience because of the recent weight redistribution. Sea-Doo claims the new RXP-X 300 can carry full speed better throughout a turn – approach, apex and transition (or exit) – without the rider needing to back off.
In our two days of testing the new RXP-X 300 (The Watercraft Journal literally racked up double the seat time of any other media outlet invited to the release), we found that favoring the nose means the vertical bow and concave deadrise still does most of the work as before, particularly when trimmed all the way down (as Sea-Doo racer and decorated national and world champion, Erminio Iantosca recommended).
Yet, with both the rider and powertrain’s weight moved forward, the hull’s natural pivot point as been greatly advanced. Rather than the bow “leading” the Sea-Doo, the RXP-X feels surprisingly paired to the rider. Imagine an 8-foot pole intersecting the ski directly through the glove box and out of the hull like a carousel horse. It is at this intersection in the hull where the RXP-X makes it most contact, whether tracking through chop at high speeds or setting up the nose for a late apex 90-degree sweep. So in other words yeah, it corners a lot better.
Of course, this is not how most enthusiasts ride, so that’s why Sea-Doo developed a more forgiving feel for casual riders. Then again, don’t be fooled, this PWC is designed to corner – and on the nose. Why else would Sea-Doo relocate the engine and fuel tank forward, as well as design a new forward cockpit if not to put as much weight on its nose as possible? So know that you gotta trim this sucker down and snap those bars with the throttle pinned, man!
Speaking of that redesigned cockpit, Sea-Doo seriously stepped up its game with its now standard 1-person seating. Yes, you read that right, there’s no passenger seat unless you buy it as an accessory ($399). Why? Because most RXP-X owners that Sea-Doo interviewed said that they almost never bring a passenger. Instead, the new seat – christened Ergolock-R – features a plastic block-off plate at the rear, a thick padded back rest and a durable hook-and-eye system that allows for as much as 5-inches in adjustment.
If sprinting through the mangroves or maneuvering through a twisting channel is your thing, bump the seat up until it’s just a little tight. Then stand up, set your heels firm on the new two-angle footwedges, slip your knees into the deep, padded coves and wedge yourself snug into the saddle. That seat back will literally lock your legs in place, letting you steer at full throttle without feeling like you’re constantly having to do chin-ups.
Additionally, Sea-Doo made the telescoping steering neck (same as used on the Trixx and previous RXP-X) optional as well ($175). Again, most performance enthusiasts said they didn’t need it, so Sea-Doo plopped it behind an option box. The same went for the BRP Premium Sound System ($800). Producing the identical 100-watts of Bluetooth-controlled fun (now found on all other mid- and full-sized runabouts) it too is another goodie you need to check a box for. And no, that doesn’t mean it can fit pre-2021 RXP-X’s either. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Listed with a base MSRP of $15,799, the 2021 Sea-Doo RXP-X 300 comes in a very classic Bombardier hue, what they’re calling Millennium Yellow. If you’re wanting a little more flash, you can fork over an extra $300 for the Midnight Purple and Manta Yellow variant, which is what we tested here. And Sea-Doo’s also offering two unique vinyl wrap kits to boot. So at the very least, the RXP-X definitely looks the role – but is it the grand slam Sea-Doo needed?
While we mourn the loss of adjustable sponsons (standard are the less-than-great X-series sponsons found on the RXT-X 300), we were disappointed by its tendency to unhook the pump at wide open throttle across Lake Monroe’s windblown 2-to-3-foot moderate chop even when trimming the bow up. Pumps make thrust, and pumps need hook up; and if you’re unhooked, you ain’t making thrust. And that’s gonna cost racers the checkered flag.
In all, the new RXP-X leaps forward several steps ahead of its predecessor; the out-of-the-hole acceleration, optimized weight distribution, killer power-to-weight ratio, and improved rough water straight line tracking (at least at cruising speeds) are all the things that many performance enthusiasts have been craving for for years – and all of that adds up to solid proof that Sea-Doo is listening and has delivered the musclecraft that its most loyal fans have asked for.
2020 has been a helluva year – and in more ways that one. For those affected by the COVID outbreak, many with the expendable income found new pleasure in owning a personal watercraft – particularly as amusement parks, concerts, restaurants and other vacation outlets were closed. This boon in PWC sales helped dramatically bolster Sea-Doo maker BRP Inc., particularly in light of several weeks of factory shutdowns.
In a recent report by Yahoo! Finance, BRP Inc.’s net income rose 35-percent, fueled by a 40-percent boost in North American sales of powersports vehicles. Earnings per share of $1.14 were seven times higher than analysts predicted – all of this in spite of production shutdowns (throughout April and May), which depleted inventory and slowed revenues in its second quarter – a revenue decline of 16-percent.
“We’re down almost $1 billion in terms of inventory in the network … It’s quite sizable,” chief financial officer Sebastien Martel said on a conference call with investors. “CEO Jose Boisjoli views the drastic decline in business for competing industries — cruises, airlines and amusement parks — as a boon to BRP,” states the article.
“A lot of people realized in May and June that they had not many options for going on vacation anywhere, and a lot of people turned around and decided to try powersports,” Boisjoli was quoted. “Cruising on ATVs or Sea-Doos respects physical distancing and allows friends and family to share a social activity, making it perfect for the COVID-19 era,” Boisjoli continued.
What is most interesting is that more than three-quarters of powersport vehicle purchases came from first-time BRP buyers, reported Yahoo!; “more than half of whom were new to the products, regardless of brand, the company said.”
But it’s not all rosy for BRP; despite extraordinary demand – particularly throughout June and July – BRP was forced to lay off about 1,000 employees and slashed others’ hours as factories ground to a halt. This and the decreased inventory places BRP’s expected revenue down between five and nine percent for the year.
The report concludes, “The company earned $126.1 million or $1.43 per share in net income for the quarter ended July 31, up from $93.3 million or 96 cents per diluted share a year earlier. Revenue totalled $1.23 billion, down from $1.46 billion in the same quarter a year ago, the company said.”
It’s no secret that for 2021, Yamaha Motor Corp. USA totally redesigned its VX lineup; and with that redesign came the introduction of Yamaha’s first-ever factory-installed, integrated full audio system. These 4.5-inch speaker pods produce 100-watts of thumping musical enjoyment that can be added to any of the new 2021 models for $800 (that is, if you don’t order the VX Limited or VX Limited HO wherein they come as standard equipment).
Yet, considering that the previous deck design (since the hull remains unchanged for 2021 and above) is 6 years old, there are likely many out there who too would like to upgrade their previous generation VX with a Bluetooth-controlled sound system as well.
Thankfully, Yamaha’s VX Audio Package is still available and is compatible with all 2015-2020 VX models as well as EX and GP models as well! “Not only are these speakers easy to install,” Yamaha notes. “But they also come auto-paired out of the box resulting in a hassle free Bluetooth set up experience.”
As part of Yamaha’s partnership with RAM Mounts, these are hard-mounted to your WaveRunner’s deck with an adjustable ball mount for versatile positioning. See below:
The highly anticipated 2021 Sea-Doo Reveal brought revelations of many unexpected changes and new features from Sea-Doo. One such item is the 7.8 inch panoramic full-color dash display that is unique to the 2021 GTX Limited 300 model. Perhaps the most interesting thing is not the display itself but the abilities of the system when sync’d to your smartphone.
This display in conjunction with a new Wavveboating App allows Sea-Doo to become the first ever personal watercraft brand with a fully functional ‘BoatPlay’ experience on the water. It brings a connectivity and interactivity experience similar to the developments in cars in the recent years and as we have already hinted, you can bet that this feature will be expanded into other Sea-Doo models in the coming years.
Continue reading the full press release for more details on this new Wavveboating App:
Sea-Doo, the largest personal watercraft (PWC) manufacturer in the world, has connected with Wavve Boating, an industry-leading marine navigation app, to revolutionize the Sea-Doo dash display. Ahead of the handlebars on the new GTX Limited model, riders will find a full-color digital screen capable of running select mobile applications such as music, weather, and for navigation, Wavve Boating.
Wavve Boating, an app designed to make on the water experiences more fun with less worry, helps boaters navigate and explore with ease while connected to their boating community. Recently promoted by Apple as a “New App We Love”, this app provides intuitive, customizable nautical charts, crowdsourced points of interest, and the ability to see friends on the water. Very similar to the popular road navigation app ‘Waze,’ Wavve Boating is a community of boaters, or Sea-Doo’ers, helping other Sea-Doo’ers.
Wavve Boating will run on the Sea-Doo very much like ‘Car Play’ or ‘Android Auto’, which have been widely adopted in the automotive industry, where a driver’s phone will connect to the vehicle via Bluetooth/USB, allowing the app to run on a built-in display.
From the seat of the GTX Limited, Wavve Boating users will see their location in real-time along with other important information, such as shoal locations, water depths, and channel markers sourced from various hydrographic offices. Wavve Boating also helps riders ‘live the Sea-Doo life’ with community-centric features like crowdsourced points of interest, top rated routes, and the ability to see riding friends on the water.
“It’s an honor to work with a reputable and industry-leading company such as Bombardier Recreational Products” stated Adam Allore, Founder and CEO of Wavve Boating “Our team has worked hard to make this project a reality, and we think Wavve Boating is a great fit for Sea-Doo’ers, we can’t wait to get riders using”.
This integration of mobile technology and PWCs, supports a growing demand from first-time boat buyers, which have come to expect such advancements from other industries. PWC sales have seen a 75% increase from last year levels, and a large portion of these sales are predominantly younger first-time buyers, as reported by the National Marine Manufacturers Association. Driving this unprecedented demand are hobbyists looking for available recreational activities during COVID-19 restrictions. As many have discovered, PWCs, and boating in general, provides an excellent opportunity for families to connect and relax in 2020.
The 2021 GTX Limited is available now for pre-order, and in dealer showrooms come October with a starting price of $17,999 USD. To see the app in action, watch this video from Sea-Doo. To learn more, visit sea-doo.com/us/en/sea-doo-life/sea-doo-technologies/brp-connect.
Wavve Boating is currently available for mobile use on both Apple and Android devices, and has two subscription options of $4.99/month or $19.49/year. You can visit wavveboating.com for more information, or download the app directly from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
About Wavve Boating Founded in Kingston, Ontario, Canada, Wavve Boating (Wavve) is a mobile application designed for the recreational boater.

Recently, we received an email from Captain Ron Hagerman who commands a search and rescue team based in southwestern Florida. He contacted us soon after he returned from leading his team on a search and rescue mission in Louisiana during Hurricane Laura.
Following a brief email correspondence, we spoke on the phone with Captain Hagerman because we wanted to learn more about his operation. We were eager to listen and he was eager to talk with us.
After chatting with Captain Hagerman about search and rescue, hurricanes, and what a PWC sponsorship would do for them, we put a story together. Initially our intention was to put together a Seven Deadly Questions interview. However, our enthusiasm got the best of us and we ended up taking notes while letting the conversation flow.
What began as a one-man operation during Hurricane Katrina; is now an organized eight member SAR team, consisting of retired Marines and specialized civilians. The SAR team is a branch of the Marco Patriots, an all-volunteer 5013c non-profit organization dedicated to providing relief to victims of disasters. The group has over 14,000 followers on the Marco Patriots Facebook Page.
Captain Hagerman is the Disaster Response Team Lead for the Marco Patriots.
During our first few minutes on the phone, it was clear that Captain Hagerman thrives on giving back to the community. Ron owns a jet ski tours company so he might be found letting the military ride for free or prepping for a trip to an area under imminent threat of a landfalling hurricane. Whatever the reason, you can bet he’s giving back because that’s how he rolls.
SAR missions are a priority and Captain Hagerman believes that they are his calling. He operates under a “Go now” approach and the goal for he and his team is to get there first so that they can offer immediate care and assistance. This means that they usually arrive while a hurricane is still lashing out at an area.
The crew has rescued hundreds of people during their missions. The goal now is to get a PWC sponsorship so Captain Hagerman can stop using his business assets during their missions. His truck and watercraft have taken beatings in the debris filled waters and wear and tear of travel.
Their story went public after returning from the devastation of Hurricane Laura and since then; they have garnered enough donations for the purchase a truck and a couple of new PWC. The team needs two more skis and safety gear. Also, Captain Hagerman would like to have an ATV on hand for effectively reaching areas where access is difficult. As ATV would allow the team to branch out into land rescues.
If you would like to help the Marco Patriots SAR Team, either through becoming a donor or a sponsor, contact Captain Ron Hagerman at: [email protected]. Captain Hagerman will be glad to hear from you, especially if you’re with Sea-Doo or Yamaha and offering a sponsorship!
Here’s a short YouTube clip with easy to follow instructions on how to flush and fog your Kawasaki 310 and 300 Ultras. Jamie Eade from Brisbane Kawasaki takes you through the correct way to flush your machine so you can safely store it until next season.
Begin by grabbing the fitting kit and screwing it onto the intercooler fitting. Once it’s fitted, attach the hose to intercooler outlet and turn on the water. Let the flushing commence. Allow the water to flush out the intercooler for about five minutes. Do not run the engine.
Next, take off the fitting kit and attach it to the motor flushing opening. Attach the hose, start the motor, and turn on the water. You’ll want to have a nice strong flow of water. This means that your system is clear. Let the water run for five minutes. Turn off the water and rev the engine to clear any water from the exhaust. You only need to rev the engine a few times because you don’t want it to get too hot because the next step is to fog.
Once you have finished the flushing, unhook the hose and take out the flush fitting. Follow that with pulling off the fogging port so you can put a little oil film on the supercharger to protect it from corrosion. Put the skinny straw from the fogging spray into the port and spray for a few seconds.
Follow up by cranking and giving the engine a couple of revs. Let the engine run while spraying for another few seconds. Rev the engine again, turn it off, replace the port, and finish the task by spraying the engine with WD40.
The 2020 Pro Watercross World Championships are scheduled to kick off on October 29, 2020 in Naples, Florida. Broward Motorsports is excited to announce their support once again as presenting sponsor.
For all of the latest details, you can head over to the Pro Watercross Championship Event Page. There, you can check your class schedules, get your online entries in, and find all of the important information about this year’s event. Continue reading for the full press details.
Pro Watercross is proud to announce that longtime sponsor and tour supporter Sam Nehme has once again put the Broward Motorsport name behind Pro Watercross as Presenting Sponsor for the 2020 World Championship in Naples, Florida.
Broward Motorsports will join Title Sponsor LIQUI MOLY USA to bring world class racing to Sugden Regional Park, where the past championships have seen wire-to-wire battles, come-from-behind finishes, and thrilling match-ups between legends of the sport as well as the enthusiasm and energy of the sports’ newest – and youngest – competitors.
“Whether it is as a multi-time world champion racer, as a mentor for our newer racers, or as a partner and sponsor of the tour, you can’t ask for better than Sam Nehme and Broward Motorsports in your corner and on your crew,” said Pro Watercross Chairman AJ Handler. “We are very grateful for their support, and excited to have him back with us for the 2020 World Championship.”
“Broward Motorsports is excited to announce that yet again we will be sponsoring the Pro Watercross World Finals in Naples,” Nehme said. “We are proud to be parts of a growing event such as this one. Every year just seems to get better and better for both the fans, spectators as well as the racers!”
Scheduled to kick off on Thursday, Oct. 29, the four-day event will culminate at the World Championship Awards Ceremony Sunday evening, Nov. 1, and will pack those four days with back to back racing, thrilling freestyle competitions, and family fun, all centered around beautiful Lake Avalon and hosted by Sugden Regional Park, one of Collier County’s brightest jewels.
“This has been an amazing event to attend since its inception, and the location is as good as it gets! We are proud to be parts of a growing event such as this one,” Nehme said. “We know that it has been a tough year for everyone, but we also know that the show must go on!”
