(NAPSI)-The tide in new technology has hit the boating industry. New on the lakes and oceans, now that the warmer weather has arrived, are two family-oriented sport boats.
Two 23-foot boats from Sea-Doo deliver trendsetting design, spirited performance and meaningful innovations in the midsize runabout category with room for 12 people.
The first, the new Sea-Doo 230 Wake, uses Direct Drive propulsion. This means no exposed propellers, rudders or fins. This not only makes the boat safer for swimmers, but also eliminates worries about hitting submerged objects and damaging engine performance.
The Wake is different from other wakeboard-specific boats or stern drives because it is more versatile. After boarding is done, this boat is actually lots of fun to drive and good in rough water. It's loaded with standard, Wake-specific features, such as Wakeboard Pro PerfectPass speed control, heater and 1,000 pounds of adjustable ballast for bigger wakes. It also has an MP3 jack for the Clarion stereo system and Infinity tower speakers with PA system.
Raising the bar on high performance is the 230 Challenger, which offers adrenaline-pumping, precision-handling versatility and sociability, thanks to the unique design of the open cockpit and an innovative, retractable windshield option. The Challenger also comes in an 18-foot model for the value minded. The 180 Challenger is equipped with a full-glass windshield and powered by a 215-horsepower marine engine.
Direct Drive-propelled sport boats are becoming more popular as the benefits from this technology make their way to the mainstream. Safety is placed at a premium with this new generation of sport boats.
