2001 Sea Doo PWC GTX DI Description
-
One of the hallmarks of Bombardiers Sea-Doo
division aside from the fact that it sprang out of Valcourt, Que., to
lead the PWC world has been its ability to develop continually
improved personal watercraft. One of the ways it has kept up a
blistering pace on the research and development side is that its old
boat didnt just disappear into the sunset.
With few exceptions such as the HX, which was built to win Sport-division races Sea-Doos old models, once ousted by new ones, simply moved down the line.
Recently, thats changed. The current XP, for example, introduced four years ago and mildly modified since then, is still too hot to move anywhere. The RX series was built on a whole new hull. Same goes for the humongous LRV, another unique vessel.
That leaves the GT series of three-seaters. As for the GTS, its built on a hull that is simply too good to lose and is being offered with three different engines (see the review of the GTX DI in this issue).
But instead of leaving the GTS and GTi series boats to malinger, Sea-Doo has done a complete redesign. The GTi has a new hull, based on the RX but about three inches shorter than the GTX, with two steps in the bulked-up bow sections, a couple of cutoff strakes running parallel to the hulls centreline and a couple of mini-strakes amidships towards the outside.
Topsides, its got a Cozumel green paint job, room for three in the saddle and plenty of storage. Power (ideal for towing skiers or wakeboarders) is the reliable carbureted 718-cc 85-hp Rotax. The analog speedo and fuel gauge are adequate for watersports and all-round recreation.
With quick-planing capability (we went from a stop to 30 mph in 4.79 sec.) the boat will indeed make a great tow vehicle. With a top speed of 44.3 mph, it will be fast enough for most riders. In fact, all you give up is the old GTis ability to hold extra-tight turns and still handle the steepest waves in comfort. The new GTis good looks and great price, however, should make up for it.
