Sea-Doo's own Tim McKercher pushes a 2022 Sea-Doo FishPro Trophy to the very edge by documenting how far a naturally-aspirated Rotax 1630 ACE can go on a single tank of 87 octane! You WILL NOT believe the mileage this ST3-hulled machine gets when set in ECO mode the entire time.

Pretty damn good! Great job Tim, appreciate you sharing that information. I can only imagine imagine how many people wanted that information. Very very useful! Billy D

Great video. Thanks for taking the time and money to do this. It was really informative. So, 114 nautical miles in 4.2 hours on an 18.5 gallon tank, you got 6.16 NM/gal with an average speed of 27.14 NM/hour. That's really useful information for trip planning.

Keep in mind too, going through very choppy conditions or rough seas will bring down fuel economy, so will a loaded ice chest. We take these things offshore fishing a lot and there is a huge community of folks that have built modified racks that hole two five gallon marine fuel jugs instead of sea-doo’s single four gallon 250$ tank 🤣 Check out Mike Stinger SeaDoo mods, good stuff
@세상만끽BoatJetskiYachtATV
awesome information U did, I live in Korea and my name is John. whenever I rode my fishpro 170, I had a curiosity how I could go with full tank. Today, I watched your beautiful Journal and I really appreciated with your useful experience in spite of spending time and gas. Thank you Tim.

This is a really good video. I’ve been wondering the same. It would be great if you guys could get a few of the models together and do a range shootout between models (170’s, 230’s and 300’s) using this same track to see the differences between engine sizes and models.

Decades ago I would take my Kawasaki Jet Ski from Ventura to Santa Barbara marinas and back.. 27 miles one way.. Didnt have enough gas to go round trip.. Always needed to fill up in Santa Barbara. But, the waves were a lot choppier than where you are.

Not bad at all!! That is about 210km from a 75-liter fuel tank = 2.8km per liter. You mentioned "real world conditions", but that depends on your area and what you are doing with the ski. Your water seemed to be very nice and flat most of the way. It just goes to show what weight and water conditions can do to fuel consumption. In real world offshore fishing conditions (Australia) for me, I average about 1.2 - 1.6 km per liter (depending on the type of fishing), which will give me 48-65 nautical miles to the tank. Bear in mind that this is loaded with fishing gear, 2 people, and a set of fishing tubbies fitted to the sides. Because of this, I have added the additional 40 liter "long range" fuel tank to extend my distance to 75-100 nautical miles on my ski. But a good test/video to establish a base line!!

Why would I buy this instead of a cheap, used 2 person ski? I could add everything this has for a fraction of the price..? You could add a fish finder, mud rods and never spend this kind of money. Must be nice.

I'm starting to rig my '23 FX Cruiser HO for going offshore out of the Clearwater area. I was thinking I could go 30-35 miles out and back on one tank with a cooler and gear. The yamaha fuel alert beeps non stop once you get down to a 1/4 tank

I am guess in open ocean in normal 1-2 foot swells would do about 110-120 miles and maybe 100-105 loaded down, which is much better than my 75-80 miles on my RXT in ECO

so with a load of fishing gear and a cooler cut that down about 20-30%. still can go out over 20 miles from shore to fish, if the seas allow it. I am impressed. I wouldn't, but a brave soul can. I certainly wouldn't do it without some support.
@rechitsapivo
@rechitsapivo 5 месяцев назад
That information should be available in the specifications. But for all of the long distance claims, know where can I find the range. Which makes me think that if they had something to boast about they would have done it, but since they do not specify the range on a vehicle that is supposed to go long distance it means that there's nothing special about that range, and it's probably not worth spending $20,000 on.

What was the constant RPMS. The mileage is awesome ❤ but full disclosure of information is key. And if a Slightly larger Impeller on this Ski would get less or more MPG.... These are questions for WCJ.... Please Advise as it’s to me the next part of Ride is best Gas Mileage for all Skis. Thxs for Sharing!

While the seadoo fuel caddy has the benefit of utilizing the LinQ system. Most of us long range riders use a PWC Superrack along with 2 - 5 gal sure gas cans they are easier to use as they have a bendable spout IMHO! Rule of thumb is about 4-5mpg averaging 40-50mph with bursts of open throttle* - *Disclaimer: Your mileage may vary!

I think it would’ve been a better test for how far you could go if you loaded down the Sea-Doo with coolers rods and reels put some weight on it like a normal fisherman. Would you want it completely empty just that extra tank of gas where is your food and water? You’re going to be out all day long nothing to eat or drink specially to drink, not a true test. Where is your mothership?
@watercraftjournal
@watercraftjournal Год назад
We did it as such because this is how someone on an Explorer Pro or a GTX 170 would've gone (naturally aspirated engine and all).
@williamlutsch4259
@williamlutsch4259 5 месяцев назад
Noone should run a vehicle completely out of fuel. The fuel pump works really hard and is cooled and lubricated by the fuel going through. The fuel pump will have immediate wear once there isnt any fuel running through it. Replaced many a fuel pump and this is the number 1 culprit

And another one! Yup helicopters would go faster with more horsepower too! You wouldnt gain a thing with more horsepower your impellor, pump inlet and nozzle dictate what you would call power of a watercraft..yes if you upgraded the intake impellor and nozle it would require more power too push the water volume, but as is the horspower is allready more then needed too drive the inlet, empellor and nozle of that machine..you might change the intake grate, upgrade the impellor and pick up some power..
