Seadoo GTR-215 sluggish

[jesse.eldridge]

Hey guys, need some help on my ski, I am at 100 hours now but when I turn it on, it's response time on the throttle is painfully slow and I can't reach a speed of over 60kmph on sports mode, not sure what's wrong, it is booked for service in 2 weeks but definitely won't be taking it out till then
Thanks guys

What year is your ski? Sounds like your Supercharger is the issue.

Could also be a hose connected to the intercooler.

Hey mate, it's 2013

Got it a few months ago, it's ran perfect but yeah haha

Generally, when a SCd ski looses performance and 20 or so MPH it is either the intercooler, SC, or a hose connected to them. So check hoses and connections first.

I've got a 2012 GTR 215 and it does that periodically, but I usually attribute it to getting stuck in "Eco mode" (after I've had it in that mode). The throttle is very slow in responding and it's speed is limited as you describe, even though it's now in another mode. I'd try disconnecting the battery for 10 seconds or so to see if it resets itself. Good luck.
