Hey Bud, Love your Vids. Fellow Montreal boy here(Chateauguay), was looking at getting something similar. would you recommend the 4-Tec (4 stroke) motor over running two 2 strokes? I heard the 4 strokes are way more reliable.
I love this video...I can't stop laughing at how much fun you guys are having...its great!!! I'm amazed at how much abuse these Seadoo's can take. When those Rotax engines let go however, what a mess!!!!!! Thanks for taking us along for the ride, felt like I was right there with you guys!!!! My Back still aches LOL!!!!! : )
you are so right about those Rotax, thank for watching it was a great ride. i have done the engine brand new and have not been able to get them going 100% now i have do the some work on one engine and i will get that thing to the dealer, i need the engine 100% working i can't wait to see how high i will jump next time. the goal is to use life jacket and helmet next summer. just wait i will be back !!!!
I have the same boat, mine has been malfunctioning, it seems to get stuck at 5000 rpms like 15 mph, any ideas, sometimes it will open up, but most of the time 5000 rpms
men i have also all kind of problem. the trick is when the engine decide to go, just never slow down and go jump every thing. it may cost you money when you are done but it is worth it :)
Bonjour Boutdoog! je suis novice dans le marine et j'aimerais savoir si tu me recommande ce modele de Speedster. Vous semblez avoir un fun fou sur la video et la musique est trop bonne :)!!! Sans abuser de ton temps, j'apprécierais que tu me dise les trucs à faire et ne pas faire pour conserver une machine en bon état de fonctionnement S"V"P". Dans un de tes videos, tu mentionne avoir fait 1 heure de bon temps pour 4 heures de reparation.... Est-ce le genre de jet boat à etre toujours en besoin de réparation?
Salut. Pour commencer je pense que le speedster 97 c'est un super bateau. moi je vais le garder longtemps. Il faut que tu puisses remonter tes moteurs seul et que tu ais la place pour travailler sur le bateau a l'intérieur. A ne pas oublier que les pièces commence a se faire rare et que BRP ne travail plus sur leur bateau. Il te faut donc trouver un gars dans un garage de font de cours pour le réparé. Les 2 turbine sont pas facile a driver. Au départ une se vide ou l autre dont les départs pas facile mais une fois partie, c'est super. oublis la ballade tranquille en bas de 4000rpm le bateau ne plane pas et a 4200 tu roule 50k. tu comprend le point. Les 97 propre c'est genre 5000 et un 4 temps plus récent 10000. conte 3000 min pour remonté les 2 motteur au garage donc a toi de prendre la décision. C'est des moteurs qui vibre beaucoup donc meme le locktight ne tien pas tu dois constament vérifier le tous sinon tu peux ne pas revenir de ta ride. je traine toujours les outils pour travailler les moteurs sur l'eau. Moi j'aime bien les oldschool et passer devant un seadoo nouveau avec le mien ca me fait toujours rire. Toujours de l'huile BRP en vrac full syntec et ps si le avant et reculons block donne pas de coup pour qu'il fonctionne, c'est surement des algues qui ploque les trape, ca va te couter 300$ LOL Been there done that A+ Boutdoog
Un Gros MERCI pour ta réponse! Ça va beaucoup m'aider dans mon choix. Peut-être aurons nous l'occasion de se croiser sur le St-Laurent ou le Lac St-Louis! Merci encore!
boutdoog same year I have yellow and green seat just spent 1500 redoing engines and rebuilding both jet pumps 2 new impellers new carbon fiber rings and lots other I took it in on trade but still got a kick ass boat and needed rebuild anyway just sucks 1500 bucks before my first use :/ but I'm fresh now :)
+boutdoog Hi there, didnt see your post for 2 years. But now iam looking for summer action again in the winter :D still love te summer!! I cant wait for riding also! but you got much nicer waters over there!! Greetz from holland!
It's the St-Laurent River It goes around Montreal island and it's a nice place to ride the boat. We are lucky to have those cargo boat on the river they are making nice wave to play with. the boat will be ready soon engine problem and we are having great weather here this summer. Bummer i have to hurry up :)
youll know when u jump a big wake in those old speedsters. youll only see blue skies for about 3 seconds, and come back down really hard. and make sure your passenger is leaning back also or theyll nose dive to the oposing ice chest/cooler seat. dont clinch your teeth while doing either. lol. 97 speedster?
+boutdoog lol. awesome. i know we (me and wife) did have some killer times on that boat. there was always 2 things guaranteed when we hit the water in the 97 speedster, u were gonna get drunk and laid. i shouldnt have sold it but got tired of rebuilding both carbs once a year.
Men, you are so right. We were actually thinking about it recently. We were kind of to confident about the boat but when talking about it we assume it was time to go a lot harder. the boat never worked fine and was always having hard time picking up speed. changed every thing on the boat and after having the rotary face worked on a broke the brass gear on the crank. it's time to get it to the dealer and get it 100% of it's power. then i will put the life jacket and we just let those rotax push us out of the water. can't wait but for now i have to finish some project and will be back on water.... Thanks for watching :)
Boat is in the garage all that time..... 2 stroke for ever. Hope to be back on water soon.. New truck 6.0 diesel I will make some boat ramp bonus at the end😂😂😂
The greatest boat ever made period.
My wife and I just bought a 2002 sportster. Runs great and so far have had a blast with it.

I love this video. I watched it many times. I have the same boat now after watching this.
Thanks for uploading 👌
Men have fun with you toy.
Smith Improvments how is your speedster? A lot of problems or a lot of fun?? How much fuel does it burn for a full day out?
Great video. I need to know the trick you do with the gear when you flip right and left!
Obviously a man of taste and distinction.
Thanks but the two of them cost money to keep them happy and running good :) lol
boutdoog :-)
boutdoog spend the money on the boat only!!!
I just bought a speedster and a big part of it was looking at this video and how fun it is!
You will have so much full with this boat!! Jet boat give's you G force.
By the way like you car. And keep riding...
boutdoog what is the difference between the sportster and the speedster?
im looking at the sportster right now.

Awesome I have the same boat...how do you have the GoPro mounted?
i have used a old dirt bike handle bar strap to the rear handle it has the right angle for the boat.
I have a 2005 215 sportster very fast and fun. Have u taken on a lot of water at once yet??? I thought I was going to sink mine.
not yet, i will happen i am sure :) those boat are made strong

I have the same boat, mine has been malfunctioning, it seems to get stuck at 5000 rpms like 15 mph, any ideas, sometimes it will open up, but most of the time 5000 rpms

Sick video,I do the same thing on my RXT-X260 on lake Ontario
My brother lives in Toronto. I will go ride it next summer. Lake Ontario have some great wave, I'm sure...
What lake is that?
It's the St-Laurent River It goes around Montreal island and it's a nice place to ride the boat. We are lucky to have those cargo boat on the river they are making nice wave to play with. the boat will be ready soon engine problem and we are having great weather here this summer. Bummer i have to hurry up :)
Cool Thanks
Good video
that looks fun!

yep 97 speedster. my face is lift up from the win after the ride. i have gave a ride to a old lady and her face looked 20 years younger after. :)
+boutdoog lol. awesome. i know we (me and wife) did have some killer times on that boat. there was always 2 things guaranteed when we hit the water in the 97 speedster, u were gonna get drunk and laid. i shouldnt have sold it but got tired of rebuilding both carbs once a year.
Love your videos but dude if you capsized out there without a life jacket you might not make it.
Men, you are so right. We were actually thinking about it recently. We were kind of to confident about the boat but when talking about it we assume it was time to go a lot harder. the boat never worked fine and was always having hard time picking up speed. changed every thing on the boat and after having the rotary face worked on a broke the brass gear on the crank. it's time to get it to the dealer and get it 100% of it's power. then i will put the life jacket and we just let those rotax push us out of the water. can't wait but for now i have to finish some project and will be back on water....
Thanks for watching :)
I have a seadoo speedster 255 my dad jump the wave it can flip but it not flip...
men those are so cool which i had one , not the sound of mine at low speed but good power have fun
