More Power, More Technology and More Ways to Enjoy Life on the Water
For water-sports enthusiasts, Sea-Doo is making 2027 all about horsepower, speed, recreation and new ways to enjoy the water. The company has refreshed its personal watercraft and Switch pontoon lineup with stronger engines, rider-inspired technology and updated styling designed for everyone from recreational riders to serious performance fans.
One of the biggest headlines is the introduction of the Sea-Doo RXP-X Senna 350, a limited-edition personal watercraft honoring legendary Formula One racing driver Ayrton Senna. The special model brings motorsports inspiration to the water while showcasing just how performance-focused the Sea-Doo lineup has become.
But high-performance riding is only one part of the story. Sea-Doo is also expanding the popular Spark family and celebrating five years of its Switch pontoon platform.
Water Sports Get a 350-Horsepower Boost
Personal watercraft—or PWCs—have become a major part of recreational water sports because they combine boating with an athletic, interactive riding experience. Riders can explore lakes, rivers and coastal areas while enjoying acceleration, maneuverability and open-air adventure.
For 2027, Sea-Doo is increasing that excitement with its Rotax 1630 ACE engine delivering up to 350 horsepower.
The upgraded engine will power the GTX Limited, RXT-X and RXP-X platforms, along with the limited-edition RXP-X Senna.
For performance-minded riders, that means considerably more power directly from the factory. Whether accelerating across open water or enjoying a day of recreational riding, the increased horsepower places performance at the center of Sea-Doo’s new season.
The RXP-X Senna adds another layer of personality. Inspired by Senna’s celebrated racing legacy, it connects the worlds of motorsports and water sports through a machine designed around speed and performance.
The Spark X Brings More Fun to the Water
Not every rider needs 350 horsepower.
For families, younger adult riders and newcomers interested in entering the PWC lifestyle, the Sea-Doo Spark remains an important part of the lineup.
The big 2027 update is the introduction of the Spark X, along with a Spark X Trixx option.
Sea-Doo’s new Rotax 1000 ACE engine will be offered in 60, 90 and 110 horsepower configurations. The 110-horsepower version provides the Spark X with a reported 15% increase in top speed, while maintaining the lightweight character that has helped make the Spark accessible to recreational riders.
More horsepower translates into stronger acceleration and a more responsive experience, giving riders additional excitement without moving directly into Sea-Doo’s highest-performance machines.
The Spark X and Spark X Trixx also receive Sea-Doo’s Intelligent Debris Free system, allowing riders to clear debris from the pump through handlebar-mounted controls.
Why This Matters for Water-Sports Fans
The new lineup offers several notable benefits for people considering water recreation:
- More horsepower: Select performance models now offer up to 350 hp for riders seeking serious acceleration and excitement.
- A faster Spark experience: The new Spark X receives 110 hp and a 15% higher top speed, adding another performance level to the accessible Spark family.
- Options for different riders: From first-time recreational users to experienced performance enthusiasts, Sea-Doo is offering multiple horsepower levels and configurations.
- Smarter technology: Larger touchscreen displays and expanded connectivity bring navigation and important riding information closer to the rider.
- More family recreation: The Switch pontoon lineup provides an alternative for people who want boating, entertaining, cruising and group adventures rather than solo PWC riding.
- Longer days on the water: Upgraded fuel capacity on select Switch models and other convenience improvements are designed to support extended recreational outings.
Technology Meets the PWC Lifestyle
Today’s water-sports experience increasingly includes technology, and Sea-Doo is expanding its digital features accordingly.
Following the introduction of its 10.25-inch touchscreen display, Sea-Doo is bringing the technology to additional models, including the GTX and GTR-X.
For riders, screens and connectivity can make a meaningful difference. Navigation, vehicle information and other essential functions become easier to access while spending time on unfamiliar waterways or planning longer recreational rides.
The Spark X also receives practical additions including a standard Speed Regulator and boarding step. Select configurations can incorporate the BRP Audio-portable System, bringing music into the recreational experience.
Sea-Doo Switch Celebrates Five Years
Water sports aren’t always about riding alone.
For families and groups who prefer cruising, swimming, entertaining or spending an entire afternoon together, Sea-Doo’s Switch pontoon lineup enters its fifth year with several updates.
Switch models equipped with 230- and 300-horsepower engines will have the larger 10.25-inch display available, giving boaters easier access to navigation and ride information.
The Switch Sport receives rear corner doors, while certain Switch Cruise configurations gain the option for a factory-installed double bimini—an especially practical addition when spending long periods outdoors.
Sea-Doo is also upgrading 230-horsepower Switch models with a 176-liter fuel tank, supporting longer days of boating before refueling.
Across the Switch lineup, an updated automatic bilge pump is designed to detect and remove excess water from the engine bay, adding another level of convenience and reassurance.
Could Sea-Doo Find a Place in the LA 2028 Water-Sports Conversation?
As Los Angeles prepares for the LA 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games, it is hard not to imagine how high-performance watercraft technology could become part of the broader water-sports conversation surrounding Southern California.
Sea-Doo personal watercraft are not Olympic competition equipment, but they could still be an interesting fit around the wider ecosystem of water-based events, demonstrations, branded activations, athlete support, hospitality experiences or public-facing recreational showcases.
Wouldn’t it be exciting to see Sea-Doo’s newest technology connected in some creative way to the energy surrounding LA 2028 water sports? Southern California already has a strong boating, beach and outdoor recreation culture, making the region a natural backdrop for brands that represent movement, performance and life on the water.
That possibility adds another layer to what Sea-Doo is building for 2027.
The Bigger Water-Recreation Picture
Sea-Doo’s new lineup reflects how broad the modern water-sports lifestyle has become.
One rider may want acceleration and aggressive PWC performance. Another may want an approachable machine for weekend recreation. Families may simply want a comfortable pontoon where everyone can cruise, swim, relax and spend quality time together.
That variety is what makes today’s water-sports market interesting.
The 350-horsepower performance machines bring the adrenaline. The new Spark X makes recreational riding faster and more exciting. And the Switch continues extending the Sea-Doo experience beyond personal watercraft into family boating.
For consumers thinking about making water recreation part of their lifestyle, 2027 provides more choices across performance, technology and group entertainment.
