SDSB Crew,

I am looking to purchase a newer sea doo boat, most likely the 210 SP or wake but am hearing that they are not good for slalom skiing as they lack power for pulling out of the hole? I am a 200Lb guy and figure the 310 or 430 Hp should be bale to accomplish this?

Any input would be greatly appreciated.

I can assure you that the if any boat will the 430 hp model will pull you out of the hole. It accelerates harder than any other boat I've ever been in.

I would assume the same as 430 Hp is a significant amount of power on any boat. On this specific boat (210 SP or Wake) is it possible to get an aftermarket impellar to increase torque or thrust I guess you would call it on a jet boat?

Also these engines in the 430 model are super charged............high maitenance one would assume?

I would think you could probably get an aftermarket impeller, but jet boats are known for their torque and low speed power. I think you'll be happy with it stock, just try it before you look into upgrading. As for the superchargers, they require a rebuild at 200 hours but other than that there's nothing different.
