First, a little bit about myself. I’ve only been riding a PWC for a couple months. Maybe have 5 hours on it. Absolutely love the machine (GTX Limited 230).
Was taking two of my kids for a ride and was leaning over to put bumpers on before a refuel. My kid in the back was also leaning over to put the rear bumper on. Leaned too far apparently. Foot well took on some water and before I knew it, all 3 of us went for a swim. The Seadoo didn’t roll though.
Everyone was calm and cool about it and we got back pretty quick. I guess I’m wondering if this has happened to anyone else. I was under the impression that this model was pretty much untippable. Rookie mistake and very embarrassing.
Later that day I was doing some slow turns with two passengers and I almost tipped it again. I’m assuming it’s the added weight, but it caught me by surprise.
Any tips for this would be much appreciated.
