Sea-Doo, watercraft and sport boat, is the leader in watersports fun.

Prior to picking up your brand new Sea-Doo Sport Boat, make sure you are comfortable trailering your new boat.

The first step is to make sure you have the right hitch on your tow vehicle. You will want to select a Class I or II hitch depending on which Sea-Doo Sport Boat model you choose. Check with your Sea-Doo Sport boat dealer for the correct hitch. An empty parking lot is a great place to learn to trailer your new boat. Practice towing first as you will want to get used to the added length, weight and braking of the vehicle/trailer combination. Once you feel comfortable with this phase you are ready to practice 'backing up'. Use one of the parking spaces as a 'make-believe' launch ramp and practice putting the trailer between the lines from different angles. Before you know it you will quickly get used to steering in the opposite direction of where you want the trailer to go and avoiding 'over-steering'. A proven method that many people feel comfortable with is putting your steering hand at the bottom of the wheel and by moving your hand to the right turns the trailer to the right and vice-versa.

Your first attempt may end up resembling a 'snake', but don't worry we all had to learn and even the experts don't get it right the first time.

When you're ready for your first launch be sure to check the ramp for obstacles or hazards.

Have your boat ready before you hit the ramp (i.e. tie downs removed, drain plugs in, gear on board, blower activated) At the waters edge unhook the winch strap, safety chain and light wire. Upon returning just follow the steps in reverse. Always be aware of the fact you are towing as you will want to take wider turns to avoid curbs and vehicles around town.

Don't be afraid to ask your Sea-Doo Sport Boat dealer for some trailering tips. They are in business to help you.

So what are you waiting for? Go launch your boat and get your share of Sea-Doo Sport Boat Fun!
