  • One of the key design challenges faced was to create a cutting-edge performance oriented personal watercraft that would allow riders to spend more quality time on water. The Sea-Doo RXT-X had to be designed with the right amount of integrated and seamless features to answer our consumers’ needs. The RXT-X model was designed to leverage our accessories line-up to further enrich the experience onboard the watercraft. The RXT-X watercraft had to be revolutionary while maintaining the strong visual Sea-Doo DNA.

  • The design team came up with a revolutionary idea to access the large storage compartment in front of the vehicle from the driver’s seat. This created new proportions featuring new muscular and refined gesture. The performance attributes are enhanced with more performance oriented ergonomics in the foot wells and handle bars. The Sea-Doo RXT-X features the industry’s first OEM-installed, integrated, waterproof Bluetooth audio system. The modular 3 up seating gives riders a living room on board. The rear boarding platform features the Quick attach LINQ system that allows several accessories such as a cooler for extended use on the water.

  • The personal watercraft has potential to offer new experiences on water. The Sea-Doo RXT-X model is the first watercraft to allow riders to enjoy more quality of time on water. Its new features created a new perspective on what a watercraft could be. The RXT-X model offers the riders the possibilities of adventure, exploration and discovery in a functional and aesthetic package.

  • The Sea-Doo RXT-X watercraft is a node to our Sea-Doo heritage of bringing new innovative and exciting products to people who are looking to spend more time on the water. This new platform features a wider hull for added stability and confidence when boarding. The new hull is constructed using a proprietary process allowing dramatic weight reduction and new coloration opportunities.
