They also had a toy of that model.
It was battery operated. While at a dealershop open house back then, my mom bought one for me.
I still have it.....

Looks like an old Olympic sled / LOL

Dealership back in NY has one of those in their showroom - it is pretty cool.

I had an earlier Sea-doo with a single cylinder 320 18 hp air cooled engine. I swapped the engine back and forth winter and summer between the sea-doo and a ski-doo elan. That 320 rotax really made the elan fly.

The first sea-doos came out before their time so didn't catch on. The factory recalled all the twins because of a phenonomin known as the "Big Boom". Gas fumes would build up inside the hull and then when you hit the electric starter they would blow up. Usually split the hull along the seam between the top and bottom halves. At least one dealer took the ID plates off and mailed them to the factory stating the boats had been distroyed. A few of those "distroyed" boats survive today.
