In 2015, five Sea-Doo performance series models continue this nearly two and a half decade long tradition.Sea-Doo performance series watercraft have a long and distinguished history of offering ultimate performance and handling thanks to a perfect combination of ergonomics, performance enhancing features, proven Rotax engine technology and standout styling.

The BRP design team is world renown for innovation and setting new trends in the marine industry with the 2015 Sea-Doo performance models exemplifying this more than any others. In 2015, the Sea-Doo performance models combine the award-winning intricacies of the flowing-facet design philosophy with the most dramatic colorization change in the marine industry.  Color is instrumental in defining performance.The speed of light intertwines with the speed of color. When you see a speeding vehicle the first stimulus noticed is the approaching speed, second is the color and third is the sound as it passes. The 2015 Sea-Doo performance series combines speed with vibrant, hot color combinations creating a visually loud statement that will set new trends while remaining distinctly Sea-Doo. All 2015 Sea-Doo performance models feature the integration of the vibrant new Sunburst Yellow color ready to make a statement when launching off of the starting line, a statement as the first to cross the finish line and a statement that is distinctively Sea-Doo performance. Constantly innovating, BRP Sea-Doo is also introducing a new Radio Frequency (RF) key that makes for a faster engine start and maintains security with our exclusive Digitally Encoded Security System (RF D.E.S.S. key). The new key fits securely onto the housing and ensures quick connectivity and engine start up on all 2015 Sea-Doo performance series models.Sea-Doo performance watercraft are ideal for riders in search of stand out power, styling, acceleration, the ultimate adrenaline rush and a watercraft that empowers them to ride like a pro.
