If you like these videos, please subscribe. This video calculates the gas consumption of a Sea Doo Switch 21 foot 170 HP Rotax at 7100 RPM and max weight. This should be close to a "worst case" gas consumption. It was calculated to be 4.6 gallons per hour. Here are links to the Sea Doo auxiliary LINQ gas can and syphon pump that I keep in the boat. If this has helped, please like and subscribe.

I just found your channel. Fantastic Switch video! I've owned many boats over the years and your fuel economy sounds reasonable and about what I would expect given the boat/horsepower/load. I've now watched all your videos and I will keep an eye open for more! Thank you so much, great job, great narration and explanation of what you do. Great job!

I generally cruise 75 miles or more before the annoying beeping starts. I've gone further than that, and have also had it lower when I ran pretty much top speed for a couple hours. This past weekend I used 19 gallons to do a 65 mile round trip, sometimes idling up the lake, sometimes up to 30 mph. Mine tops out at 7400 RPM, for some reason. One of the things I wonder about, is why! My '22 Fish Pro Trophy has exact same running gear and engine, it tops out at 7900 RPM..... Regardless, quite happy with both. The Switch could be improved though. Say, put a motor and drive in both outside pods and sync 'em up. She'd be a ripper!

Thank you for your hard work making this video, it's great! I hope you make enough money form the video to get a "Dead Cat" for your mic. Thank you again, Gary.

With How many people on the 21/170 can you still tow? and also what was your top speed with the 6 adults and 2 kids

Top speed maybe 25. I can still tow two kids, but the speed is now down to about 18. Towing is a lot of drag.

They are set to the middle hole - factory default.

I thought about a Switch for this Summer season. Not now after this. If someone has different info let us know.

It's not a gas efficient boat. But fun.

Do you recommend using fuel stabilizer on the switch
@letsrolldiyauto1532
@letsrolldiyauto1532 11 ай бұрын
No. Project Farm (a great KZfaq channel) has a good video on fuel stabilizers. He shows they are a waste of money. It doesn't hurt, but doesn't really help, either. During the season, use regular 87 octane (10% ethanol) as SeaDoo recommends. But at the end of the season where your boat may be stored for 6 months or so, fill up the tank with ethanol free gas.

You were going around 10 m.p.h. Is that right are you even on plane at that speed? Something just doesn't add up. Too much weight or too little of an engine. 25 m.p.h. Is actually slow. 10 is idling along.

What you see on the Garmin for the speed is the average speed since I bought the boat. I had not reset anything. During this test, I tried to keep the boat at 20mph. My switch will usually top out at 28mph. 30 is the fastest I've been able to go. The 230HP engine will get about 5mph faster.

No, it was normal running. Some idling, some full throttle.
