Sea-Doo

Sea-Doo is the personal watercraft and boat brand of BRP, the Canadian powersports company based in Valcourt, Quebec. Bombardier launched the first Sea-Doo in 1968, an air-cooled ‘jet-powered aqua scooter’ developed with Clayton Jacobson II; it was withdrawn after two years, and the name returned in 1988 as a brand of its own, passing 100,000 units a year by 1995.

Every model is driven by an impeller waterjet, with Rotax engines built at BRP’s plant in Gunskirchen, Austria, and craft assembled in Queretaro and Juarez, Mexico. The range covers recreation, tow sports, touring, fishing and performance watercraft, and has widened to the Switch pontoon and the Rise eFoil, an all-electric hydrofoil whose wing was shaped by studying birds in flight.
