A little over a week ago, The Watercraft Journal published the good news concerning the race course-prowess of the 2021 Sea-Doo RXP-X 300 during its debut at the Pro Watercross World Championships held in Naples, Fla., Oct. 29-Nov. 1, 2020. Not only did Sea-Doo racers pilot their new RXP-X’s to a first and third place podium finish, but also earned the machine its first World Championship – slightly over a month since its public reveal.
Sea-Doo ambassador and racer, Anthony Radetic captained his Millennium Yellow RXP-X 300 to a stellar 3rd place finish in the Pro-Am Box Stock class, proving to the world the capabilities of this new musclecraft. Prior to the event, Radetic had to quickly prepare his Sea-Doo for the race course by giving it the “RIVA treatment” including a MaptunerX reflash, Pro Series sponsons, new RIVA valve spring retainers and a few other goodies that pushed his new machine to a blistering 84mph.
And clearly, the RIVA treatment did the job, as Radetic’s bright yellow Sea-Doo was visible by all of those in the pack several lengths behind him. RIVA Racing had worked closely with Sea-Doo during the development of this new RXP-X and had a full lineup of products ready for the public once the machines were made public.

Just how accurate are the speedos on these new Sea Doo’? On flat water and in a dead straight line, my Garmin GPS shows about 1/12 – 2 mph behind what my RXTX-speedo shows.
