I was given an opportunity by Energy Powersports of Oakville to take out their 2021 Sea Doo GTX 300 Limited and Review it.
So I of course kindly took them up on that offer and headed out onto Lake Erie for a couple of days with my good friend Wayne who used my GTX 170 and also assisted with the filming, free of charge of course. (Nigel's Cheap Vlogs).
We put the GTX 300 Limited on a good long ride, opened it up a few times to see how fast we could get it.
Then after all the fooling around it was time to do the review. Unscripted Review BTW
The video is Ride and Review basically.

Fantastic review and professionally produced video! I really enjoy your videos. We'll Done!

Great review , I've got the GTX 300 Limited. And got the wife the GTX 170 and her favorite feature was the added sound system. Highly recommend to add that option to yours . We are also local Ontario riders, enjoy your machine

I am defiantly going to be adding the sound during the winter

If it's anything like this year just be patient. they are a great team and look after everyone, but the deliveries are at the hands of the Sea Doo Gods BRP. Once it arrives they'll make sure all goes well and smoothly

@chrisrogers24 2 года назад

I own the 21' GTX 230 sea doo and at top speed, the jet ski can hit 70 mph on a glass lake. While the ski's governed speed is between 68-69 mph, that's still fast enough for myself. Maybe not for other racing enthusiasts, but it is for me. Looks like fun! I've always admired the great lakes. Really wish Sea Doo made the digital 'and app available' screen for all performance and luxury models. Not just only for the 300 hp models themselves.

@NigelHay 2 года назад

My 170 is plenty fast enough for me.

@donaldwest9103 3 года назад

Great review! I have the GTX 230 and I have a total of 15 hours. Just the other day, for the first time, I put it in Sport Mode on calm water and was at 67 mph in about five seconds. Insane speed on the water. I have found that there is a huge difference in 40 mph on the water, and 40 mph in a car. I have the audio system and would highly recommend it. I was cruising along at about 10mph looking at the beautiful homes on the Island of Jamestown in Narragansett Bay while listening to my Pandora stations. Perfect moment. This was why I got a PWC. Enjoy your post. Keep them coming. Thanks.

@NigelHay 3 года назад

Thanks Donald (as always). I.was blown away by the acceleration. We were lucky on both days we had very calm water on the lake, which is rare.

@tobetus 3 года назад

I had same story, at first didnt like the LCD but now I love it. How did you connect gopro to cooler? Did you drill holes?

@NigelHay 2 года назад

Hi Tomi, no, i just use the adhesive mounts that GoPro provide (sell). Just make sure it's 3M if you buy a non GoPro accessory, It holds extremely well. In rough conditions i add a safety cable just in case and attach one end to camera and other to cooler

@timothylacey5318 Год назад

How stable is it? How comfortable. How’s the storage? How dry is it?

@szeldov 3 года назад

Nice job as usual Nigel. You pretty much hit the speed limit. All PWCs are electronically limited to 70mph and Sea Doo always reads around 3 km/h higher at the top speed.230 is a good compromise between 170 and 300, it is too bad they don't put 230 into LTD model any more.

@NigelHay 3 года назад

Dealer said 125, Wayne who hit 115 said it maxed out at that, though I wonder with low fuel (less weight) that may push it further, plus others have said a mod would make.ir go that speed

@szeldov 3 года назад

@@NigelHay With the mods you can take it to 90 mph if you desire so, but from the factory without ECU re-flash 70 mph is the max

@NigelHay 3 года назад

@@szeldov 75mph is fast enough for me. The acceleration was a certain adrenalin rush

@rccrazy30 3 года назад

I just picked up a GTX 230 last weekend got VERY lucky and happen to find a dealer with one available. I had a 2013 gti se 130 and my dad has a 260 S. Before I bought my new ski 2 of my friends picked up a 230 wake and a 170 SE so I got to do a little sea trial on both of them in decent ocean conditions. The GTX platform is way more stable when having 3 people on board. In bigger waves, the GTX is much better and slicing through the waves without pounding. The 170 SE in my opinion is the right ski for the people that are going to pretty much stick to smaller waters.

@NigelHay 2 года назад

I couldn't agree more. Only thing i wish i added to the review was that when riding with a passenger or passengers, always be in regular mode or sport as the weight makes eco very sluggish and the engine works harder

@rccrazy30 2 года назад

@@NigelHay I would agree with that. I haven’t had any passengers on my gtx 230 but I have on my dads gtx 260 and find the same eco mode won’t even get the ski on plane

Getting ready to finally rent the GTX 130 from Energy Powersports. Do you have any recommendations for a touring path for the day around the area? Any good restaurants we should stop at for Lunch? We'll have it from around 9:30-5:00 including travel. Super excited to get out on the water!

@NigelHay 2 года назад

Hi Aaron, sorry i only just found this. have you been out on the water yet? or is it this weekend? where you heading?

@3akoscielski 2 года назад

@@NigelHay No problem! We haven't been out yet, should be in a couple weeks. We're gonna be launching around Oakville (Know of a good dock around there?) and looking to explore somewhere in Lake Ontario. I guess maybe what do you think the best way to travel out of Oakville would be? Head towards Toronto, or head towards Hamilton? And are there a few locations along the route we should stop at, or head to explore? Thanks!

@jacklewis100 2 года назад

As the main purpose of 300 vs. 230/170 is speed/accelleration. It's a shame the only 'description' was "it's much faster". The 0-30 or 0-60 speeds would be useful and as I'm choosing currently, I can't find the acceleration stats on these models anywhere.

Neither could I
