Well I got the RXPX 2008 for $8350

Included trailer, bumpers, anchor and cover.

Boat has a few scuff marks but overall in good shape.

On the test drive I learned what a scared little girl feels like.

holy Shih Tzu-That thing screams, 0-65 (in choppy water) in a snap.

Its gonna be a wild summer

Pics to come
 
Way to make an entire forum jealous of your buy :rofl:


That's a killer deal you got there. Definitely going to be a wild summer :cheers:
 
Just got back from the lake ( on my buddies boat).
Going to put some hours on the RXP-X tomorrow to learn this thing. Im pumped about it.

Here are some pics I got of her in the garage tonight.

yesterday on rough waters we got to 65... Today I will take her out and play a bit to see what she has.
 
Sounds like a blast. I think you made the right move vs the RXP you were first looking at :cheers:

How many hrs are on your ski?

I just missed out on a 2008 RXP X that was up for $9k. Had 36hrs on it.
 
It now has 46 hrs. Bought it with 44. I know I did not get a smoking deal but I think it was fair.

After yesterday I know it was the right move
 
I think you absolutely got a smokin deal!

You paid half the price for a ski with only 44hrs on it. You paid $8,350 for a ski that goes for $15k new plus the setup ($500) and trailer.

You also don't have to do the washer upgrade on the blower since metal washers comes on the 2008 and later models.

The one I found had 36 hrs, but was at $9K and was used in salt water.
 
Funny to say that your Sea Doo is a lot faster than your 'Vette...who'd have ever thought it! Funny thing is just like the Vette, if you ever get use to the speed there are still upgrades for that 255!

Sea Doo RXP-X Stage 1 Kit

Absolutely incredible deal and PWC. Keep the videos and pics coming.
 
WOW Dont get me hooked on the mod fever like I am on the vette. The vette is supposed to be my sumemr toy but This Saedoo is taking over.
 
I am suprised that skis are not doing 80mph from the factory with what's been made in the last 5 years!!!
 
OK- Getting some things taken care of...
1) Just ordered a new cover for my 99GTI from poppys company (read good things on this forum)
2) Cleaned the RXP-X and stored her away till next weekend
3) Reading up on the owners manual.

Not clear on some things. When pulling the RXP from the water Do I let her run a few seconds to clear the eater out like I do on the GTI?

I read that I need to flush the system with clean water from a hose before storing for the week. (How often is this necessary?)

Where can I get SEADOO part # (P/N 295 500
473). water hose quick connect

Thanks
 
The QD is 6.00 at my dealer... Look there...

I flush my RXP every time in come back from the ramp for the week.

How about when immediately pulling from the water? Am I okay to run for a few seconds to get the water out?
 
Yes the flushing is turn the engine on...then the water...run till engine is flushed .....Then turn off the water... Hit the gas to 4K rpm to blow out the water and shut off then engine .... Done!!!!!
 
I mean when it comes off the lake on the ramp. I rev it up to 2000rpm to try to blow out the water from the lake.
