Hello out there,has anyone seen the new Speedster Trim tabs that appear to have just hit the market from Bombardier? I saw some pictures on one of the other jet boat sites.They are supposed to control porpoising and maybe even increase speed.If they do what they claim,they might be a worthwhile investment.Thanks,Gary.

I was wondering if anybody knows if the 25928 Lenco TrimTab System for Sea Doo would work with the speedster 200.

i need some real world advice

i am in south florida and i am interested in a sport boat or pwc...

i am considdering the sppedster 200/ 430...or the rxp or rxt

i am concerned that i will get the crap beat out of me on a 200/430 here in the ocean, it seems like a lake boat, but i can't find anyone or any review looking at the boat in these water...

as for the pwc, do you reccomend the rxp or rxt... i will never have 3 people on board, i am really looking for what will be the real world difference between the 2...in terms of driveability, how it handles the waves/ chop/swell in the ocean

no one will let me test drive both in the ocean...

i am most concerned about getting beat up in the waves... i know trhe rxt will be a little smoother, but i don't know of anyone who has experience with both or all 3 for that matter...

any help/advice/experience you can provide would be great

thanks

I have a 370 on a very large lake. I have to agree i'ts not much fun with a big chop. I thought because of the weight and deep V it would take the waves a little better than it dose. That said it's still a blast to drive I just need to leave my wife on shore to have any fun on the rough days.

I bought an '05 S200 370 back in July. After passing 10 hours and having its first service, I decided to start opening it up.

With a bimini top installed but down, 3/4 tank of gas, and me and one passenger, I only managed 55.4 mph as a top speed. There was no wind, and the water was calm but not glass-smooth. My rpms showed 7,800 port and about 7,600 stbd.

Wasn't this boat supposed to hit the mid-60's with two 185-Hp engines? I can see a slight dropoff in speed for the extra weight, but 8 mph?

I would appreciate others' comments on the top speed of their boats. I'm a little bit disappointed with the top speed. Out-of-the-hole performance is fine, it's just the stop speed that I'm not happy with...

I have the same boat and hit 62mph on a gps but my Spedo on the boat only reads 42mph. How were you checking the speed?
