It's good. I had misspoke during the Live Session. They Yamaha watt output is identical to Sea-Doo's (2 50watt) but I wasn't wrong in them drowning out over 55mph, while the Sea-Doo's are a little more clearer until about 60-62mph.

I have to say ( maybe this is good to avoid other boaters and neighbors) but even on the SeaDoo, they aren’t that loud or of good audio quality…(especially considering the price tag.

I agree. I’m currently in the process of figuring out what I want for 2023 and so far seadoo is more appealing for dedicated fishing vessel. You can mount a cooler + 2 tanks or 2 coolers + tank and etc. Then you have swivel seat or flat bench seat, angled gunwale footrests, massive front bin and IDF which can be super useful as long they fixed the issues from baby year.

That's just not the case it is much better fishing platform than the Yamaha, and can do absolutely everything the Yamaha can do in other areas as a regular ski. Also, the rear deck is a far better design on the Sea Doo. I'm not invested either way, was waiting to see what Yamaha brought to the table and it looks exactly like what it is...

What are your thoughts on having to drill six holes into the deck of the Waverunner to mount the forward securing brackets on the Recdeck? I love my 2022 FX HO, I've had it for six weeks! The Recdeck I ordered with the ski is still on backorder and now I'm having second thoughts about mounting it, because I'm reluctant to drill into my deck and it not be water tight. Yamaha released a Recdeck install how to video a few days ago and it appears that only through bolts, washers and nylock nuts are used, no backing plate or waterproof sealant for the holes.

Yeah, we know. That's what happens when you record it live versus writing a script and record a voice over.

Rec Deck is completely overpriced for what it is... Its just injection molded plastic, plus you have to drill holes in the ski to mount... No thanks.

I love yamaha but that deck is ugly it look bulkier in the back not a clean ride compare to the seadoo.No space in the back .Such a big company should come up with nice clean fishing ski

The images don't do the Rec Deck justice. It's surprisingly useful and there's some very clear bits in it. Plus, the dang thing is removable, which is something the Fish Pro doesn't do.

Yamaha Engine is BETTER THAN Seadoo Rotax.. Seadoo Platform is BETTER THAN Yamaha. Hard to pick. Reliability vs swivel seat???

Is the platform better?

Man, you need to go stroll through the boat yard. There's half million dollar boats in the same colors.
