Just want to clarify as you misspoke in the video, the speakers system on the boat is "JL" Audio, not JBL, huge difference in quality with JL being leaps and bounds better quality than JBL in most peoples eyes. Really cool boat and great review, I think I'll stick with my Harley for the time being though.
Is there somewhere where I can see the feature difference between the switch Cruise and the switch limited. I know there are differences but trying to figure out what they are to see if it’s worth it.
Great overview. Can I get a Seadoo pontoon boat with a steering wheel? Every night while we are at the cottage we head out for an hour or two booze cruise before supper and I normally have one hand on the steering wheel and the other on the windshield and we putt around the lake. Having to use two hands on PWC handle bars does not seem practical...more like a toy boat. We currently have a Seadoo Challenger 1800SP and are thinking with grand kids the pontoon would be more practical, but not if it steers like a PWC....
I don't think so, but that's a great question. I think it's a little more complicated than just an added accessory at the dealer. But I could be wrong. Great question.
Anyone know the full length of this limited version on trailer? And also the height from floor to highest point/top of closed Bimini? The specs on website don’t include trailer like they do for the normal cruise and trailer looks smaller, Bimini looks like it folds flatter than normal versions as well?
So usually this comment comes when I say it far too often, or not enough... Since I don't know which one it is in this video. I'm a about 6 feet tall. 🙂
Just curious, what do you want that these don't have? I think some of the things that are unique about these add functionality (intelligent brake and reverse is a unique system that until now requires handlebars instead of a steering wheel) but what would you like to see different?
doesn't really look like it to me. Looks like a lot of injected resin vs aluminum. Seats look great/well-constructed/comfy, as does the styling- maneuverability is much improved, obviously. Modular construction keeps costs down, along with the lack of aluminum/welded toons. Honestly, looks like a boat that would be a blast for 95% of the population at 1/2 - 1/3 of the price of "luxury" toon. I would bet money other OEM's will be copying styling/modularity aspect of these ASAP. Worst thing to me is the front-folding bimini...I think I understand/can see the "why" I just don't think it's best, overall, vs the rear-fold. Toons have needed a refresh now for decades.

They need to make of these a 2 feet longer and with twin engines for under $45k. Then I would consider buying one.
Yeah and at least through in the full Bimini top!
Never talk about prices that is the most important
Prices can change. The link in the description will have all the up to date pricing as long as this video is online.
Quality should be first they shouldn't be giving problems with 10 hours and shouldn't be coming from the factory missing bolts
What brought me here was a flyer and the 170 is 30k and the 230 is 44k. Not sure what options that price includes.
$55,200
I would guess because it's expensive.
That felt very detailed. This looks like a sweet ride. I just restored a 1995 Seadoo Speedster. Fun but beat the crap out of us on the lake yesterday.
Wrog
Why is the 325hp engine not in this?? SEADOO/BRP WHY

There’s a cruise control function. No need for both hands.
There is no door/gate at the back (stern) of the boat behind the two folding seats.
Can you buy the floor lighting separately and add to existing switch?
I don't think so, but that's a great question. I think it's a little more complicated than just an added accessory at the dealer. But I could be wrong. Great question.
Fun video interesting it has a Sea-Doo JetSki handlebars instead of a steering wheel

I'd like a review of the 18" Cruise
I'll be reviewing more of these this summer. Stay tuned!
Buy it
Those are JL audio speakers 🔊, they are of much better sound and quality 👍🏼
Would be cool to do a video comparison between the same models but between years.
Differences between 23 / 24
I'll try to do that as the 2025 models arrive.
Do the seats and floor lift for storage?
Yes.
You should review the new switch fish 😁
I plan to!
Cruise control??
You don’t need to announce wide angle every time
I wonder how tall he is???

$55,200 !!!
😢
Edit: good Lord I hope it Is Canadian Dollars lol
I film in Canada. Those might be Canadian dollars.
Who is designing these?. They aren’t listening to their customers.

Haha, you can't tell colors
So much junk stay far far away you well be sorry

As the owner of a 30’ pontoon and a 23’ wakeboard boat- I hate This thing! So cheesy and ugly to me. What’s the point of this boat?
Blah blah blah put a fork in it ponyboy
