Sea-Doo time (or summer) is just around the corner and now is the time to prep for the season.  We hope you have taken the time to read Dr. Doo’s post on Pre Season Fuel Care and the blog on Pre-Season prep for your Sea-Doo.  Now it is time to get organized.

Dry BagRemember last season when you got soaked and wanted to stop by your favorite restaurant for a bite to eat?  Wouldn’t it have been nice to have a dry shirt or shoes to put on (since shirts and shoes are required by most eating establishments)?  We recommend carrying a dry set of clothes in your Sea-Doo Dry Bag. These bags are watertight and made of puncture-resistant PVC coated polyester fiber materials.  They have a reinforced bottom and are designed to keep everything dry.

Sea-Doo glove boxes are roomy and designed to keep multiple items safe during your ride. Many people keep their cell phones, keys,GLove box organizer sunglasses, boater’s safety license, registration, etc., in it.  Once you place all of these items in the glove box, they tend to shuffle around when you are shredding and carving.  Our solution is a Sea-Doo Glove Box Organizer.  The Glove Box organizer fits all models with S3 Hulls and iS models.  It is a semi-rigid splash-resistant, portable case.  The liner cushions the inside of the glove box and provides insulation.  The case fits perfectly in the glove box and provides easy access when opening the glove box cover. Bonus! When you dock or are heading home, you can grab the case and easily take all of the items with you.

AFront storage trayfter jumping in the water to cool off or beaching at your favorite island destination, you will likely have a wet towel (or two), wet rope, snacks, etc.  The Sea-Doo Front Storage Tray is the perfect solution to safely storing these items in one place while underway.  This storage tray has a cargo handle and can store up to 3.2 gallons of ‘stuff’.  Plus, it lifts out (and in) easily for transportation.  The Front Storage Tray fits the 2012 and newer Sea-Doo RXP-X 260, GTI, GTS 2011 and newer and GTR 2012 and newer.

Check out all of these Sea-Doo organization boxes and bags online store or visit your local dealer and they can help you get prepared for an organized day on the water!

THE INTREPID COTTAGER: Sea-Doo PAC Team Hits the Water!

Have you ever wondered who comes up with the stuff in the Sea-Doo store and catalogue? I found out when nine of the top guns from Sea-Doo PAC (Parts, Accessories & Clothing) met me at the McIntosh Country Inn at Morrisburg, Ontario for a 250-kilometre (155-mile) round trip to Kingston and back on the St Lawrence River.

Man, these guys rock! Their “day at the office” was a mission to discover more about what touring riders need for real world comfort and enjoyment. I promise that it was all work and no play! I was assured that they are always this happy and grinning ear-to-ear every day in the office.

We chose this tour through Canada’s famous Thousand Islands because it has most of the characteristics typical of day ride on a Sea-Doo watercraft: trailering to get there, an unfamiliar launch, varying weather and water conditions, a good distance to travel to a specific destination, different routes to navigate there and back, diverse fuel stops along the way, the need to carry extra gear and lunch, and plenty of other boat (and PWC) traffic to be aware of. And fabulous scenery, too!

Each of these various attributes added to the experience. I could almost hear the creative juices churning about new ways to enhance Sea-Doo touring. Believe me, after more than seven hours on the water, this PAC team was really into it – it was all I could do to get them to end the ride!

There was nothing like sharing the same kind of adventure that many Sea-Doo enthusiasts love so much to stir up the excitement among these BRP staffers. I bet they had some crazy dreams as they lay their weary bones to rest that night. And I’m more than certain that at least some of their imaginings will become reality on the pages of the Sea-Doo catalogue in coming years. PAC goodies designed by folks who actually get out there and ride!

But perhaps what impressed me most about this whole ride was that it’s yet another affirmation of BRP’s overall commitment to understanding and improving the rider experience. With Sea-Doo, this manifests itself in such exclusive (and in my opinion) must-have innovations as brake, suspension, hands-on-the-throttle reverse and the many other Sea-Doo features and benefits I’ve come to rely on. I can hardly wait to see what these creative minds from Sea-Doo PAC come up with – and I know it’s gonna be good!
