It’s incredible

I wrecked you coverage is only. Limited to seasonal (summer) and that it does not extend to (off shore ocean riding) Unless you upgrade, otherwise I felt confident my insurance would cover these waters as inland Canadian waters. Easy to confirm yourself.

Amazing, you probably picked out my mistakes with some of the info!

Very! Most incredible experience

That’s awesome thought, I just want someone else to try it first! Haha. So much fun.

Hey hey, Incredible place to visit. Made it back again this year. The Explorer pro has been an INCREDIBLE machine for ME. My style of riding and location of riding has this machine feeling like it’s in the prime location. This journey was a 200km, I use around 85 litres. Calm conditions with some chop spots. Is this Acceptable, i thinks it totally fine. This is my third machine and first non super charged machine. I SO HAPPY I don’t have more HP, the fuel was killing me on these long exploring rides. I WOULD NOT recommend a super charged unit if your aiming at distance exploring, for instance there are trips here where gas stations are 180km apart and I would not be able to carry my gear and enough gas to make it between them with a super charged unit. I also feel like the type of ocean conditions I run into the super charger would not be effective because you can’t ride that fast through it. When you could use it to go fast, you don’t because your sight seeing and exploring. I would tell my best friend to just get the 170 explorer if you’re into the adventures of it. I’m not limited in any means and really this is the reason I can get where I get. Power, the 170 has been fine, I rode with four people on it in some chop to a wild natural hot springs location and rode in some morning chop waters and had what I need for power to keep us moving and handling it well. Any other thoughts?

@MarinaMafia I seriously appreciate the time you took to write such a thoughtful reply, bud. Believe it or not, you are the first person to actually provide me any data on what the Explorer 170 Pro is capable of, fuel range wise. Your 200 km and 85 liters of fuel consumed equates to a rough trip average of 5.5 statute miles/gallon given the particular conditions of your trip. I think that's amazing! I've been researching boats recently and found most will be lucky to get into the high two/low three miles per gallon burn rate. The Sea Doo is way better than a boat in that regard. I grant that they are totally different machines, but the fuel consumption rate is undeniable. You sold me on the 170 hp engine. Compared to the 230, I suspect the 170 has the advantages of less weight and complexity, more range, and likely more payload. If a little less top end is the drawback, then no big deal. Again, thanks, man! PS: When I eventually get my Explorer Pro 170 and shoot a video of it, I'm going to make sure I credit you for helping with my decision. 👍

Haha thank you, thank you, We’ll just to clarify that the 170 and 230 will have the same payload of 600lbs passengers with 25lb in the front storage bay. However of course I usually store about 60lbs up front and have had up to four adults on the machine for a decent 2 hour trip. The range is where it is at, and for some reason the reliability seems to be up in the air the not having a super charger saves you. The machine is definitely for me, I haven’t made any modifications and likely never will for what I do. I would like to put some serious lights in it for possible dark time riding, that’s it.

It’s incredible the local words that i have been hearing vary greatly, I appreciate the details corrected for sure. It’s still an incredible story.

Incredible, the info some people have is amazing. Was there still a hospital then?

Yea I was talking to someone about that after I made the mistake.

Fantastic machine. Everything is going great so far. Had four people on it today 50km down the fjords to a isolated hot springs, and watched a grizzly bear forage for two hours.

I’m afraid my partner has joined you with the PTSD, can’t return with him.

We agree! I 100% see that and enjoy being part of that family.

Thanks Sean, loving the new content you have and the amount of time you put into riding

More to come! Thanks for the heart, imagine riding together again one day!

hahahah I sleep better at night now....

YOO, Im super happy you seen this video, really helps capture it right! Now you can show people a bit better.

Hey, great questions. As far as I can tell with multiple trips and other boaters. You can come in the low side of the falls from St. Catharines just fine all the way up to the whirlpool and inside the whirlpool but may not be allowed past that. You’ll fine a boat ramp on the lower river just before the fun stuff as well near the power plants.

Next one coming up this week, we are off again starting Wednesday

I’ll go with you guys!!! I’ll fly back for that ride.

Landed on the west coast in Feb, right in the costal mountains with the fjords to explore

Thank you so much 😊

An absolute thrilling venture

So big tunnels are built into ground from falls to the stations? For real?

@@Laizurelylife Yep, pretty cool eh? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sir_Adam_Beck_Hydroelectric_Generating_Stations Upstream of the International Control Dam are three tunnel intakes which run under Niagara Falls, Ontario and surface 2 km (1.2 mi) upstream of the Sir Adam Beck Generating Stations. All three tunnel intakes are upstream of the Control Dam, however one of the three tunnels is unseen, under the water, located directly in front of the Control Dam, Control Tower. The open cut canal and the tunnel canal cross at the "Cross Over" where there is a third channel feeding the 174 MW pump generating station 43°08′40″N 79°03′36″W which pumps water up into the man-made reservoir at night and generates electricity during the day, feeding the water back to the Sir Adam Beck Generating Complex.[6]

What a rush, defiantly a panic moment and defiantly lots to consider.

Yeah, Im so glad you made it out. Thats really insane to watch the footage of that.

Excellent! Won’t sound dumb next time :)

Hey thank you so much for enjoying the video! We launched at St Catherine’s Marina/port Weller. However I’ve done that twice and after riding you get beat up and just wanna go home sometimes or do some other things at the falls after. So we suggest using the Queenston Docks. It puts you right at the entrance of the gorge and you’ll save lots of gas money. We never had to fill up once, but did come back empty after riding quite a while, landing in St Catherine’s. We haven’t done this yet, but will be next time. Maybe even join you. Devils hole rapids, yes we did make it past them all the way to the whirlpool, which is where I believe everyone has to stop and I don’t think anyone could make it anyways. It’s considered impassible, you’ll see why in person or go ahead and buy tickets to the white water walk for $20 and walk down by the level six rapids. Again thanks for the view and love this adventure.

Incredible experience for the brave

Haha, use plenty of sunblock lotion

Hey thanks for very nice comment, what an energizing place it is.

I hope so, defiantly love trying to get the best stuff
