Sea-Doo Explorer Pro First Ride

[@LifeBeginsOnTheWater]

Thanks for review Greg & sharing your thoughts overall. Glad to see you didn’t sugarcoat it and you shared exactly how you felt about the new Seadoo Explorer Pro. Like you said in the video it’s not going to be for everyone, but no doubt it will be a successful addition to their fleet of watercraft. Thanks again, looking forward to your other 2023 Seadoo reviews! Billy D

[@GreenHulkGarage]

Thanks Billy! Honesty is the best policy so an honest review is what I delivered. I’m sure we’ll see a few of these at MudBug next summer

[@MegHumper]

do seadoos really have issues with carbon seals and sinking?

[@jeremyirizarry7259]

Yes

[@GreenHulkGarage]

The internet makes it seem far worse than it actually is. If you don’t rev your ski out of water, don’t run it on the trailer longer than 30 seconds, and don’t beach your ski then you probably won’t ever have a problem.

[@MegHumper]

@@GreenHulkGarage we beach our ski. we currently have a 99 gsx ltd and beach it all the time without issues. idk, wish they would change the design so everyone would just stop bitching.

[@tolinof79]

If you run them out of the water over 30 seconds absolutely. If in salt water flush 30 seconds done .

[@Richardnbbarrett]

Bro, in St Auggy, nice, whats it like riding down there? Any groups to ride with?

[@PersonPrivat]

Purchased one recently and when I got it on water I noticed it was sitting uneven, It was heavy on the left side. Because of that it also pulled right when riding. Wonder if you have noticed the same issue.

[@prolineasphalt]

What about visibility when the windshield gets wet ?

[@donaldwest9103]

Nice review. Thanks. I have a GTX 230 and just added the windshield. What is the top speed do you think you could ride with the windshield down? I'm afraid it may get blown back up. In the video you were going 33mph.

[@mikeggg1979]

Not the fastest but definitely the best for long rides and stuff. 55 on the water is still pretty fast. Loving this ski. Hey brother how’s the gps? I’m new to riding skis but I want to go from Long Island to queens on rides, it gives you accurate water ways to take? Depth finder too?

[@Lucasbeastwood]

1st youtuber in st augustine I've seen, that's pretty cool the waters the only thing you can enjoy out here

[@careygaddis9908]

Love the video!! Great Job, my boy!!

[@skylane1828]

Does playing the music and the gps for a long time does it drain your battery?

[@GreenHulkGarage]

No, the battery is constantly charged when the engine is running.

[@mojo904]

Did you ride north to Amelia island?

[@kyliehenson4224]

Awesome video!!

[@GreenHulkGarage]

You’re awesome 🤪

[@keving1774]

What's wrong with 55 miles per hour? Does anyone need to go 73?

[@GreenHulkGarage]

73?? I have modified skis running over 90 mph! 😁

[@nemisisarcher8213]

@@GreenHulkGarage How long can they run at at speeds like that on a tank if gas?

[@joswelcaruana3082]

still waiting for the stage 3 rxpx vs stage 3 GP1800 :/ .. but great content as always

[@GreenHulkGarage]

Both skis are actually done and ready to go for the video. It’s been quite a busy summer for us and I just haven’t had the time to make the video yet. But thanks 👍

[@jordanbradshaw9692]

Good video man. Need to ride soon brotha.

[@GreenHulkGarage]

Thanks. We definitely need to get on the water soon

[@fredyoumans4377]

Cruise control??

[@jeromeg3890]

Just curious . You went 75 miles how much fuel did you use ?

[@GreenHulkGarage]

3/4 of a tank

[@DrRob-rt2lf]

Somehow I need to link up I’m in Jax Fl and love to do events

[@GreenHulkGarage]

I’m in south Louisiana. I only go to Florida a couple of times a year.

[@Pr3ct]

Concise and to the point. Good review.

[@mannylopez3959]

Is that st Augustine 👍

[@GreenHulkGarage]

It sure is

[@bollockbuster]

That cross chop didn’t look that bad in the video. I think it’s bad on my Kawasaki STX-15f. Those get tossed around quite a bit when only moderately choppy

[@GreenHulkGarage]

It definitely could have been worse but hard to show on camera. It definitely got sketchy at times.

[@chriscross-f2n]

STX-15f, great ski when it's flat..well, not too flat because it porpoises like a bitch, and when it's rough, it's rough

[@JimmyMusignac]

Old Man Ski, maybe for Jerry Gaddis. 😀😀 Great Video !

[@GreenHulkGarage]

Thanks! If it had a little more pep in it’s step I could definitely see him on it

[@barx9204]

Miss u bro where u been

[@GreenHulkGarage]

Working! More frequent uploads are coming

[@kkutube1972]

Thanks for your opinion.

[@GreenHulkGarage]

👍👍

[@brandons9772]

At what point do you just buy a boat instead.but great vid tho

[@GreenHulkGarage]

I definitely see your point..thanks

[@eranmaron909]

Hmm can’t even compare..

[@Jetski270]

Why? A PWC is faster , less hassle to launch , towing , maintenance , and you can get to places you can’t in a boat.

[@brandons9772]

@@Jetski270 the seadoo explorer is only a 170 so boats of comparative power to weight means in not necessarily faster.again comparing boats similar in size not any easier to launch.i don't even know what trailer means.if your not doing your maintenance on your ski you've got troubles.but I will give you probably can get to areas the boat can't

Next time you’re in St Augustine let’s ride!! #NFLSR

[@mojo904]

Agreed! 😎 or First Coast Flo Riders

[@chriscross-f2n]

Been riding over 30 years now, and when I was your age I would have had the same opinion.... SLX or the Virage 1200. I'll take the SLX any day. But now I'm a geezer, and while I'm still interested in trying to rip my arms out of their sockets, my body isn't. That said, I'd be more interested in hearing from the guy in the light blue shirt about what he thinks as his perspective on hauling ass, jumping wave and doing spins is probably more akin to me.

[@Zionslayer1]

It needs a turbo diesel engine to really explore.

[@domjohnson2579]

That thing looks sweet and at 170 it must be great on gas.

[@jettruth]

Nice review. Gotta love options. It’s not for me, but it’s for someone.

[@GreenHulkGarage]

Thanks! There’s definitely a market for the Explorer Pro, just not for me

[@samawee]

The BMW GS Adventure of PWC's

[@LifeWideOpen780]

Hows living with your tesla??

[@GreenHulkGarage]

It was replaced by a corvette. The tesla was fantastic and probably the best car I've ever owned, but nothing beats the driving experience of a Z06 corvette.

Amazing......linq multi rack has been on back order all year but somehow magically seadoo has put out all these 2023 machines to test and what's on the back 🤔🤔🤔

Prototypes 😄

[@ilionatroya7129]

So this just a gratuitous video of you. Don’t review an adventure product as a pedestrian.

[@mrhouse3826]

I see you have a chemtrail problem there too

The rap got you a downvote.

[@imx3001]

A mess of engineering. Who ever buy this have no idea about pwcs

[@fredyoumans4377]

Depends on what makes the journey good for the rider. I'm 82. I don' t want a boat. I would like cruise control.

[@fredyoumans4377]

How 'bout a vent for heat. I get heat off my Ski Doo. Try riding this in temps below freezing.. You guys do a good show. Btw. Just came home from vacation in Fla. Stayed in motel with the view of over your shoulder. Would have loved to have that machine then. Next year. Ride safe.

[@niniengineering]

With the „windshield“ the rider will look like a dork. 🫣
