SEA-DOO X-TEAM TUESDAY – PROFILE

X-TEAM RACER – JARED MOORE

NAME:                    Jared Moore

SPORT:                    PWC Racing

AGE:                         29 years old

PORT:                       Benoni, Gauteng, South Africa

Jared Moore is fast.  So fast he doesn’t know how fast he is most of the time.  Moore lives in South Africa where a few fast personal watercraft racers hail from, notedly Dustin Motzouris, but Moore must travel more than a good distance to draw competition that compares to his talents. Last October, Moore showed that speed, placing second in the IJSBA World Finals premier event the Pro Open behind James Bushell; both aboard Sea-Doo RXP-X models.

Moore is your everyday, hard working guy, your everyday motorhead guy. As competitive as anyone you will meet but with a laid back southern hemisphere charm.

Let’s meet Sea-Doo X-TEAM racer, Jared Moore.

 

OnBoard – Jared, where did you grow up and how was your competitive spirit developed?

 Moore –I grew up on a small farm just outside Benoni which is not too far from Johannesburg in South Africa. Growing up on farm gave me a lot of space for fun and making trouble with a lot of toys to play on like 4-wheeler motorbikes, pit bikes, and anything that would move which could be ridden hard, rebuilt and ridden hard again.

 

 

OnBoard -What do you do away from the water to stay on the water? What’s your profession?

Moore – I work for my father’s company, we rebuild trucks which have been in accidents and we have a few trucks that transport cars. So some days I’m a mechanic and the other days I’m a truck driver.

 

OnBoard – Jared, How were you introduced to watersports?

Moore – My father and some of my uncles all raced some form of boats, so I was around water sports growing up. I raced 15 to 25 hp boats from the age of 10 and started racing personal watercraft when I was 14 years old. When I was 15, I started racing F1 boats in South Africa while still racing Sea-Doos. When I turned 17 I stared to focus mainly on racing Sea-Doo watercraft.

 

 

OnBoard – Since you began competing what are some of your accolades?

Moore – I won the Expert Runabout Limited 1200cc class in 2003 and 2005 at the IJSBA World Finals in Lake Havasu City AZ, USA before moving to the Pro Class in 2007. In 2011 I got a 3rd at the TJSBA Kings Cup in Thailand and the best I’ve done was 2nd in the Pro Open class last year at World Finals in Havasu on the new RXPX.

 

 OnBoard – Jared, Where is your favorite PWC race site?

Moore – I love the challenging racing at the World Finals in Lake Havasu but my favorite place to race will have to be in Pattaya City, Thailand at the King’s Cup. With white sand, blue water, the scooters and some of the most interesting people you’ll ever meet. The racing is hard with four long moto’s and you never know what’s going to happen next.

 

OnBoard – What is it about PWC racing that keeps you coming back?

Moore – The bug bit me a long time ago and I love the sport. The skis are so fast now and just work so well in any conditions. When you go to the start line you never know what’s going to happen, and wanting to be the best is the thing that keeps me coming back for more.

 

OnBoard – Jared, where is your favorite non-racing, riding location?

Moore-Dustin Motz lives on the coast, about 6 hours drive for me. There is a small closed spot in the harbor where he has set up a track and we go there and train. It’s always warm there, even in winter when we train for World Finals. It’s so much fun when the wind blows and the water gets rough and we ride until we can’t walk.

 

OnBoard – How was your experiences travelling to the IJSBA World Finals? And who is helping your racing efforts (sponsors)

Moore – Going to the World Finals is a long trip for us, far from home. It’s easy to get off work to travel to the race when you work for your main sponsor (TM Trucking), my father’s company. We get a lot of help from Dustin Motz at Fast Powersport and we could not have done it without the team at Sea-Doo Centre, they really are the best and it shows with Sea-Doo Centre built Skis finishing 1-2-3 in the Pro Open Class at World Finals and the top 5 at the Kings Cup. But for the most part, my racing is self funded.

 

OnBoard – What are you racing right now and what are looking forward to?

Moore –I’m racing a Sea-Doo Centre modified 2012 RXPX , this is the best ski I’ve ever had, it goes where I want it to and has more than enough power to get me there. We working on a few new things to keep us up there but will be using the same ski to help us get to number 1.

 

BRP thanks Jared Moore for his time and dedication to the pursuit of PWC racing glory aboard Sea-Doo.

Moore- Thanks very much for all the support and keep on make the best PWCs on the market.

 

MUST HAVE OF THE WEEK: A Boater’s Safety License

Are you a licensed boater? Do you have YOUR boater safety license?  Are your kids driving your Sea-Doo watercraft? Are they licensed? These are important questions to ask BEFORE you are stopped by Marine Patrol on your local waterways. Many PWC riders and boaters have learned this lesson the hard way with a hefty fine.

Each state in the US has different rules and requirements related to age and licensing restrictions for both boats and personal watercraft. For instance, in the state of Florida you can legally ride a Sea-Doo personal watercraft at 14.  Anyone born on or after Jan. 1, 1988, who operates a vessel powered by 10 hp or more, must pass an approved boater safety course.  In Minnesota, boaters ages 12-17 who wish to operate a boat with greater than 25 hp or PWC operators ages 13-17 must complete a course approved by the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.

The Boat US Foundation has a comprehensive website where you can simply click on your state and read the outline of the boating safety rules relative to your geographic location.  This map can be found at www.BoatUS.org.  They also offer a free on-line boater safety course that consists of 6 lessons and a final exam. Each lesson has a 10-question quiz at the end that you must pass before advancing to the next module.  The final exam is 75 questions and you must pass with a score of 80% or better to receive your Boater Safety license.  Once you obtain this card it is good for a lifetime. It takes about 3 hours to complete the exam, if you were to complete it in one setting. The course does allow users to take modules separately and save your progress, so you are able to complete the course at your leisure.

This course covers everything from Navigation Aids and Emergency situations , rules of the road, safety to protecting the marine environment. Upon passing, you can print a certificate of completion and finally, on your way to becoming an aware and educated boater.

SEA-DOO X-TEAM TUESDAY – February 14, 2012

Chris MacClugage aboard his Monster Energy/MACC Racing Sea-Doo RXP-X 260

BIO
NAME:       Chris MacClugage
SPORT:     PWC Racing
AGE:          37 years old
PORT:       Lake Havasu City, Arizona
FAMILY:    Married (Rachel) Son (Mac 2-months)

Chris MacClugage is the man. He has raced it all. He has won it all, 15 Championships in fact. In the world of personal watercraft racing, he has done it all…almost.

MacClugage is arguably (but not much argument) the best PWC racer of all time. He began his racing career in Naples, Florida at the ripe age of 1X earning him the early nick-name “The Kid” from older competitors. Since those days of the late ’80s he has raced every year since and in every Pro class (Ski, Sport, and Runabout), and won major championships in all of them. MacClugage has raced all over the world and won, known for his hard charging, never take the easy route, high-flying, WOT style he embodies high-performance on the water.

MacClugage has done stunt work viewed by …maybe…billions of television viewers too. He was featured in a show called Stunt Junkies where he jumped a stand-up PWC over three big house boats near the London Bridge in his new hometown of Lake Havasu City, Arizona and yes, he did clear them all.  MacClugage has also appeared in many commercials over the years with his most resent as the PWC flipping Yo Gabba Gabba sock monkey  in the Kia Sorrento Superbowl commercial.

Chris MacClugage has done a lot in his modest 3X years but there is still something he hasn’t done. . .

MacClugage has raced for the second and third largest PWC manufacturers multiple times and was paid handsomely to do so. He has worked with the best mechanics and PWC minds in the business and is one of those special athletes who can take a sub par machine and ride it to the podium on sheer will. Success has followed him off of the track as he has always been smart with his money and never took it for granted.

Chris and Rachel MacClugage

He is living comfortably with his wife Rachel another Pro World Championship racer in her own right and their new born son Mac.  His years of learning many aspects of the PWC business also helped him spawn MACC Racing, a high-performance PWC shop that builds aftermarket performance parts for enthusiasts all over the world. The MACC RACING tag line is “Faster than Factory” and that brings him to where he is in his life today.

So what hasn’t Chris MacClugage done? He hasn’t taken the easy route, until now. For the first time in his life MacClugage will compete on Sea-Doo watercraft. MacClugage has gotten to a point in his life where the competitive fires burns strong but he just want’s to win and after taking a test ride on the new Sea-Doo RXP-X 260 last August he knew it was a PWC that suited his style, WOT all the way around the track. Then following James Bushells’ double World Championship winning domination on the new RXP-X’s T3 hull MacClugage knew what he DID NOT want to be racing against.

Welcome to the Sea-Doo Life, Chris. This is his first interview flying under the Sea-Doo X-TEAM flag.

ONBOARD: Chris, where did you grow up and how was your competitive spirit developed?

CMACC: I grew up in Naples , Fl. and started riding PWC at age 11.  My competitive spirit basically came from when I got my first taste of victory at my first race,in Marco Island Florida. That race was in 1987.

ONBOARD: Chris, How were you introduced to watersports?

CMACC: My father introduced me to pwc, through another current X-TEAM rider, Erminio Iantosca. Our families hung out a lot and often had BBQs together on Sundays, at my house in Naples. We were fortunate to be able to live on the water. We water skied and knee boarded, all the time. Erminio’s father brought over a pwc to ride. I rode it and never looked back. My dad ended up buying this one for me. Later that summer we went and watched our first pwc race in Ft Myers Beach. The next year I raced that race!!!!

ONBOARD: Since you began competing what are some of your accolades?

MC: I have be able to do so many thing because of that first ride on a pwc. I have traveled to so many countries and met so many people. I have flown in presidential helicopters in the Philippines, met mayors of different towns. I have been in commercials, movies, TV programs(Baywatch). I met my wife at a race in Portugal. The sport has given me so much more than just multiple titles!!!!

ONBOARD: Chris you are arguably the most accomplished PWC racer of all time, racing on every brand at the highest level…except Sea-Doo. What is it after 25 years that drove you approach BRP about racing aboard Sea-Doo in 2012?

MC: What drove me to Sea Doo, was a change for the better. Sea-Doo is the #1 manufacturer of PWC and I wanted to be associated with a company like that. Its a great relationship for me as well as MACC Racing. Sea Doo is something totally new for me and its refreshing to work with such professionals.

Chris and little Mac

ONBOARD: Chris, you have some accomplishments on PWC away from the race course, can you tell us about those?

MC: My accomplishments away from the track….I have riden 5o ft waves in Hawaii. I have been in multiple commercials, the most recent one was a Kia sock monkey commercial. And of course the birth of my son with Rachel.

ONBOARD: Your accomplishments on the racecourse have opened some doors other high profile events and projects. How did these come about and what are some of the projects you have been a part of?

MC: Commercials, TV shows… and through my sponsor Monster Energy, I was able to participate in the Baja 1000. Monster has also invited me to several of their events , which featured a lot of high profile athletes and celebrities.

ONBOARD: Chris, Where is your favorite PWC race site and why?

MC: My favorite race site would be Oceanside, California. The reason being is that the waves are always great there and I love riding in waves. I also like to race in Japan, not the race site in particular. I just love the food!!!!

ONBOARD: What is it about PWC racing that keeps you coming back?

MC: The competition is what keeps me going! Its also become a way of life and my job. But, its a job I love to do.

ONBOARD: Chris, you have ridden all over the world where is your favorite non-racing, riding location? Where is the one place you have not ridden but always wanted to??

MC: My favorite place to ride would be anywhere that has some tasty waves. I love the ocean and love to ride pwc in it. Australia, Hawaii, Mexico, California, Florida, and the Caribbean are all places I enjoy riding.

ONBOARD: What is or has been YOUR favorite part of being part of the Sea-Doo X-TEAM.

MC: That I am now teammates with Troy Snyder! I’m also happy to a part of something that is very organized and ran professionally. The main reason is knowing that I am riding the new RXP-X that can get me out front, from the start of the race. Now that I have my son Mac and my wife Rachel, getting the hole shot will keep me safer.

ONBOARD: Chris, what are you racing right now and what are looking forward to and who is supporting your 2012 efforts?

MC: I have had great support through out my years and this year is no different. In 2012 I will racing a Sea-Doo RXP-X 260 in closed course races and an Sea-Doo RXT-X in offshore races. I will be promoting and will be supported by; Monster Energy, MACC RACING, BRP/Sea-Doo, RIVA Racing, BRP XPS, HydroTurf, Alpina Watches, JE Pistons, Liquid Militia, and Ryno Power.


BRP thanks Chris MacClugage for his time and dedication to the sport and pursuit of PWC racing glory aboard Sea-Doo for the first time in his storied career. You can follow Chris on his Facebook page.

DOCTOR DOO: Don’t Get “Steered” Wrong Sea-Doo Boaters

Detect, inspect, and adjust to ensure you are running in-line.

It has been a frequent question since 1994 when, then Bombardier, introduced their first Sea-Doo a
boat, the Speedster. The twin engined, twin direct drive water jet propelled machine was a new type of fun, and the family could come along too! Along with the new machine came some new mechanical layouts that differ from the standard PWC.

 

Most often PPG hears “Why won’t my boat go straight?” or “it really pulls to the left!” or to the right….

 

Well, it’s usually one or two things, sometimes as many as three elements that need to be addressed.

 

A simple Straight Edge can be used to determine is the steering nozzles are aligned or not aligned.

We’re showing a simple way, using a calibrated straight edge, to assure that the steering nozzles themselves are aligned. The steering nozzles, well, they steer, they are what ultimately what steers the boat by pushing the transom to one side or the other.

1. – This should be the first aspect to be inspected. Using the straight edge it should have contact in four places at the steering nozzles. If not, align by adjusting the connecting rod between the two nozzles, or have a certified Sea-Doo dealer do this for you. Once your nozzles are aligned, ensure your nozzles and steering wheel are straight. If they are not there are two adjustment points for the actual steering cable; one at the steering nozzle end and one at the steering wheel end. Before adjusting these points be sure to consult a official BRP/Sea-Doo Shop Manual or better yet, have a BRP certified technician do the adjustment.

 

2. – Propulsion system inspection, It is very difficult for most operators to *never* have a small stone, shell, or even a piece of floating hardwood (stick or twig) to not get processed through the rapidly spinning impellers due to the strong suction of the pumps intakes themselves (refer to our last Dr. Doo article).

A slight ding in an impeller can be the reason for the boat to start pulling one way or the other, even though they are at the same RPM’s and the throttles are perfectly synchronized.

3. – Synchronizing Throttles: synchronizing of RPM via the throttles, if you have twin throttles, is key.

Some shops say this can be done accurately without being in the water with said unit….it can’t. The reason is that the two individual pumps have to have INDENTICAL pump loads for this to work. Now when the impellers and impeller wear-rings are in new condition it is much more feasible for all things to be equal within the pump assemblies.

Once the alignment is complete, considering that the jet pumps and the impellers are in good matching shape, it is time to synchronize the throttles. This is best left to a certified Sea-Doo technician also. Patience and training make the whole process much easier, and it doesn’t cost a lot for it to be done correctly.

So when the local BRP dealer is telling you these things have to be *right*, for it to steer correctly, and keep the throttles aligned, they are telling it to you…straight.

Hopefully this has helped shed some light on what can be an aggravating issue.

No matter where your boating takes you, Florida, California, Minnesota, New York, Texas, Ontario, where ever, Long may you run, Dr. Doo

DOCTOR DOO – HOW TO KEEP YOUR SYSTEM CLEAN – DON’T SUCK!

Doctor Doo is here to help cure what ails you!

A problem we hear from time to time with Sea-Doo watercraft and boat owners is the congestion of debris in the direct drive water jet propulsion system but this is something that can be minimized with some understanding of what is going on underneath your vessel.

Lets first look at what a Direct Drive Water Jet Propulsion system consists of.

A Direct Drive Water Jet Propulsion system starts at the intake, this is a tunnel or track that enters the bottom of the hull to feed the encased impeller. Now hold this vision for just a few sentences… In front of the intake inside the vessels engine compartment rest the engine, mounted directly onto the bottom of the hull with the in-line drive shaft angled straight back (towards the transom) traveling through the hull and connected to the front, center of the impeller. No transmission here, it is a “direct-drive” system.

Okay back to the water flow. The impeller is a bladed or veined component that when turned transfers water from front to back, this is what creates the water propulsion. But there is more to it than that, behind the impeller blade are directional veins angled the opposite as the impeller blades to straighten the twirling water flow to force it straight back to use that energy as efficiently as possible to create maximum forward thrust. Behind the jet pump is the Venturi. The venturi is shaped similar to a cone, with the inlet being much larger in opening diameter than the smaller, tighter exiting outlet. This compresses the water and provides greater thrust when forced out. Imagine holding a garden hose with water running freely out of the end. now squeeze your thumb over the end and wow, it shoots a stream of water a lot harder, faster and further, this is what the venturi does.

Now to provide steering (and trim on some models) there is a pivoting nozzle on the rear of the venturi, this redirects the water flow from side to side to push the transom to side to side to change direction – or up and down to change/trim planning angles.

Okay so that is direct-drive water jet propulsion 101, this video offers a visual look at everything we just described.

This system draws water up into the water jet pump and pushes it out the back to propel the vessel. The pump is creating suction to draw that water into the system and anything else that might be in its negative pressure proximity. This could include sand, trash bags, sticks, Sunglasses, rope, but designed to efficiently process water and it does this very well. To help ensure only water enters the system an intake grate is mounted over the inlet. This is usually comprised of three hydrodynamically designed “bars” that run from the front of the opening to the back and are nearly flush with the bottom of the hull. The intake grate ensures large objects do not enter the propulsion system.

The intake grate is designed for hydrodynamic performance and the greater the covering, fencing or screening of the intake substantially impedes water flow and ultimately performance suffers. There is a balance but with this small objects can be drawn into the intake system. Here is where education can save you headaches.

First you should always follow your owners manual and operate your vessel in 3-feet (1m) of water depth or more but if you do find yourself in shallower water and your Sea-Doo vessel’s propulsion seems “funny” get to a safe location (one with out current and clear of potentially dangerous objects) and turn off the engine(s). The worse thing you can do is try to power through it. Why? Okay, imagine you’re vacuuming the interior of your car. You accidently run the hose nozzle over a rouge gas pump receipt and it is sucked to the end of the hose impeded airflow. Bumping up the vacuum power to max only holds the paper to the hose tighter. Shut the vacuum off and watch the paper fall off the vacuum hose un aided.

A common mistake of Sea-Doo owners that get into vegetation and it begins entering the jet pump system is powering up and hoping it will be processed. What this can do is pull the debris into the system deeper increasing the odds it will get stuck. Another common mistake is thinking by putting the vessel in reverse and powering up it will blow out the debris that way.

Remember a few paragraphs up when we discussed “direct drive”? This system works off of redirection of waterflow. In reverse the water coming out of the venture is redirected forward, similar to technology of jet airplanes when they slow down after landing.  The intake is still drawing in water in the same direction even when in reverse.  Both of these actions can also cause the exhaust to overheat as the cooling water flow is hindered. The best course of action is to turn off the engines and more times than not the debris will simply fall away.

In 2012 BRP takes this thinking a step further with the addition of the weedless system. This new system works with the iTC (intelligent Throttle Control) system and offers a button located on the dashboard of select Sea-Doo boat models and when activated (engine must be turned off) hinges the intake grate downward to utilize gravity in the aid of debris simply falling away.

That was a long way of simply saying, to keep your propulsion system clean, simply suck less!

 

 

This installment of Doctor Doo was supplied by Willy Carmine a former member of the BRP/Sea-Doo R&D team and current President of Route 1 Motorsports an authorized BRP Sea-Doo and Can-Am dealer in Grant, Florida where his customers boat in the Indian River, the 120 mile long lagoon that averages 4.5 feet (1.4m) in depth, so he knows a thing or two about shallow water boating.

The new Sea-Doo RXP-X is loaded with high performance innovation to help the rider go faster but this new benchmark in musclecraft can also turn what are routine annoyances into a day of exuberant fun!

The RXP-X 260’s ability to stop when wanted means this musclecraft can do more making what is already fun a whole lot more fun!

BRP asked successful entrepreneur and Two-Time X-Games Gold Medal barefoot water skier Peter Fleck what he thought the big difference between brakes on tradtional vehicles and brakes on a Sea-Doo was.   Fleck didn’t tell us what iBR was like but he did show us what it’s NOT like.

The new Sea-Doo RXP-X 260 features a new hull, The T3 hull. It is another revolutionary innovation from BRP, a literal, T-shape hull  With a narrow lower running surface that tracks through chop like nothing before it.  It is difficult to explain how well this new Sea-Doo watercraft handles chop.

 

BRP visited the restaurant managed by Pro Racer Eric Lagopoulos as he had an idea of how to show you what he thinks it’s like.

The new Sea-Doo RXP-X 260 sits atop an entirely new hull design, The T3 hull. It is another revolutionary innovation from BRP, a literal, T-shape hull with soft chines to allow it to lean into corners to turn tighter and faster but it is hard to explain how tight it holds the corners.

 

 

So BRP recruited 2011 IJSBA PRO World PWC Racing Champion, James Bushell to show you what he thinks it’s like.
