  • Just picked up this Yamaha RDS 250 Sea Scooter. It's a lot of fun! I wanted to make a little video talking about a few things I noticed which weren't covered in the manual.
    Here is a link to someone else's video showing the RDS 250 in action: • Yamaha Seascooter RDS2...

    Thank you for the video I learned a lot from it.
    How long the engine works When the battery is full? is it two hours As it is written in an operating book ?
    I also wanted to ask if there are any other Scooter models you recommend?

    Very informative! The manual doesn't say to remove the handles to remove the nose cone. I was pulling and wedging a knife to pry it open. As a last resort I you tubed you! Thank you

    Hi, thanks for your video! I have a seascooter rds 300 with a problem and I open that you can give me some advice: a little water enters the battery compartment, I cleaned the edges and then I lubricated as per the manual, but the problem remained, in your opinion how can i solve this problem? Thank you and good day. Sincerely

    I was going to purchase this exact scooter but came across bad reviews about its battery not having a long life or will not charge at all after 1 to several uses. What are your thoughts/comments on these bad reviews about this item having battery problems on keeping a charge pr not being able to charge at all after a single use?

    They buoyancy chamber is designed to also flood with water so you shouldn't need weights.

    if you purchased it brand new then there should be no foam around the prop casing. Then if got it second hand or used, the previous owner would have put it in there himself, for buoyancy/noise/vibration purposes. Manufacturers will never put a tackless foam with a masking tape in it.

    • @razzlopez5986
      @razzlopez5986 4 года назад

      Actually they all come with foam for buoyancy. That is factory made.

    Those floats in the prop casing were definately a " home job". I imagine for antivibration.

      OR.....its for positive buoyancy and has been done in a very cheap way. These are NOT Yamaha made. These are chinese junk with Yamaha sticker on it. Just got off the phone with my local Yamaha Dealer. They can be nice, but battery needs to be charged after every use. Every single use.
