Hi, I've done the same. Works very well.

I think what they mean, is to protect their sales by discouraging people from importing their own stuff from a cheaper market by not providing any assistance. The product is identical though. You'll find no official BRP distributer will help with your servicing. There are mechanics around who...

Hi Chimp, I have the 255hp. I board with either 4 adults & 3kids aboard or the equivalent weight in ballast. The most weight I've had is 5 adults av wt 90kgs & 3 kids av wt 40 kgs. No prob with getting even the heaviest out of the water. With max weight or the sole/floor locker filled with...

the wake from mine is ok. I either have about 5 adults & 3 kids or about 300 kgs ballast. Underfloor is good for 150kgs, & a couple of square sacs under bothe rear seats instead of coolers. Improves the wake significantly.

Hi Kris, the threads I have read would indicate most people who add performance upgrades don't get the results for the money paid. It would be better to get the 255 hp if more power is really needed. About 8 its diff I believe. Otherwise you may spend a good 5K and get 3-4 kts & 10-15% more...

What MPG/KPL & top speed do you get out of the 310hp model? Nice boat.

As you know, the choppier the water the slower you go. With this in mind both would be fine but the s200 I'd imagine will give a wetter ride. My 180 (2010) with windscreen is about as comfortable in choppy water as my friends 6.5m runabout. That said it was slow, and you become accustomed to...

I regularly have 5 on board and pull tubes, skiers and boarders. No probs with 255hp but I think 185 may struggle. Remember when you use the last 20 percent or so of power in the supercharged models the gas consumption really kicks in. No supered rotexes are extremely simple and reliable. Less...

Cycleguy, have you wakeboarded behind your 230 yet. I'm interested to hear how different the wake is to your old c180. Cheers

The 255hp version has a larger supercharger and an intercooler. If you alter your boat do it after the warrantee expires. Cheers

Your boat's unreal!!

I have read another customer complaining aboutc210 issues if I remember. I think they thought it waqs a ride plate seal issue. Good luck!

The water in my area can chop up too. I thought that my c180 just wasn't as good as other boats in regards to this, however....I went out in a friends 7m boat, renowned for its rough water handling, and honestly it was not much better than mine. In short, I was used to going 70+kph, so when the...

The engine in your boat should be identical to the one in a c180se. That said, normal RPM is 7600. This can vary upon temp, water conditions & weight on board. Before the 10 hr mark the limiter is barely noticeable. 100 rpm maybe, but consumption will be 5-10% more because of the de-tune...

If you integrate it with speakers, wetsounds, or Bullet lines.
