2018 Sea-Doo GTX Limited 230 & 300 – Long Haul Episode 18

Axel — Mon, 18 Dec 2017 05:24:28 +0000

It’s the most well-equipped, luxurious personal watercraft that Sea-Doo has built, and in this episode of “Long Haul” we put this supercharged machine through its paces. Of the GTX models, there’s only two tiers of the Limited series, 230 and 300. We don’t get into the nitty gritty performance differences between the two, because frankly, the person who is going to buy one likely isn’t going racing.

So what does The Watercraft Journal think about Sea-Doo’s all-new, completely redesigned 2018 GTX Limited 230 and 300? The revolutionary ST3 platform borrows heavily from both the outgoing RXT-X as well as the current RXP-X 300 to make it the best rough water-handling Sea-Doo we’ve ever ridden. But it’s not just in the chop where it shines, either.

The opulently-appointed Limited package is the only Sea-Doo to include its BRP Premium Audio System and USB port for phone chargers as standard equipment! (It’s optional on all other ST3-based machines.) Add to that Sea-Doo all-new centralized storage, a flip-up top deck, massive engine access panel and modular Linq system and you’ve got one heck of a machine on your hands.

2018 Yamaha GP1800 WaveRunner – Long Haul Episode 17

Axel — Sun, 26 Nov 2017 02:10:01 +0000

It’s considered by many (included a few inside of the company itself) to be the most successful supercharged runabout Yamaha has ever produced. Not only has the GP1800 charged to the top of every podium its competed for, but it was also one of the highest selling machines for its inaugural year, clinching #6 out of the Top 10 best selling PWC for 2017. So why is what the online haters call a “boosted VXR” so popular? Because it’s much more than its detractors let on. Hewn from Yamaha’s own super-lightweight NanaXcel2 material and propelled by its 250HP (*unofficial) Super Vortex High Output (SVHO) and 160mm pump, the GP1800 leads the industry with its power-to-weight ratio. Add to it a versatile hull design that can cruise, navigate wind-blown chop, and gnarly offshore white caps, and it’s the zero-frills-all-thrills machine enthusiasts have been dying for.

Building off of one of its most successful new additions to its 2016 lineup – the VX Limited – Yamaha WaveRunners introduced the FX Limited SVHO for 2017. Brandishing a full catalog of accessories for the whole family to enjoy (like a 1-person towable raft and color-matched tow rope, gear bag, dry bag, waterproof phone case, 12v raft inflator, etc.), as well as a supercharged & intercooled Super Vortex High Output 4-stroke engine, this machine is one of most impressive and well-equipped that we at The Watercraft Journal have tested.
