My name is Deric. I have been a Sea-Doo Owner since February 2023. My first ever ride on a Sea-Doo was a 2020 GTI-170. I was instantly HOOKED! With NO experience and NO knowledge, I started researching to upgrade my Sea-Doo options.
Then BOOM! I found the 2023 Sea-Doo GTX-230. An amazing machine!

I have a 2020 wake pro and I am going to used the one from the 2023 explorer the reason why is they come in yellow so going to match well with my wake pro
Good Idea. I have seen a few people do that.
headed there next week
Nice! You live near there?
You wouldn't happen to have a video explaining how to get that top cover off of my 2011 Seadoo GTX Limited 260 is would you I need to access the steering alignment adjustment knob and just cannot figure out how to get to it
I appreciate you chiming in. Sorry, I do not have a video on that.
Is this waterproof?
Yes
Love the videos. I have the same GTX 230 and my wife and kids love the ski!
Thank you, thank you for watching the videos! It’s definitely a good family ski!
I am missing scew on these bracket, could someone help me to find these 4 screw ?
Were the screws not in with the kit?
Very cool, my friend!
Thank you!
Bro you gotta take me
Let’s go!
The Draft Oceanside
@@Hello-gc1cb The Draft?
What size wrench do i need for that front bolt under the shaft ? Thanks
Use an adjustable wrench for that
Beautiful!
AMAZING for sure!
Don't waste your money on a switch.
You have one?
@@TheOceansideGuy ...my neighbor have one. Have been out with them. .... I prefer my rxt
@@MelvinRHawkinsoh I see. Thanks
Looks awesome and a bit different from my riding in Sweden and the Stockholm archipelago
Wow, you are all the way over in Sweden? Thanks for chiming in and taking time to watch the videos!
Hey man when you are in new spots like these i see a lot of shallow areas you are passing by, how do you avoid hitting rocks?
In the this video I talk about having the "depth finder" installed. So when Im in close I know close I can get without getting into trouble. Check the link in the description on the depth finder use and a link on how to install it. What type of ski do you have?
Great video. Too bad Seadoo /BRP won't make you an ambassador for the brand. They are too busy using yamaha riders as new ambassadors. Nothing against yamaha riders.
Thank you for the compliment on the video. Being an Ambassador would be cool.
I like the Yamaha CC better, you just go the speed you want, hit the cruise button and squeeze all the way on... it stays the same speed, same w/ slow, just hit the button and it goes 5mph.
Oh. Seems like it’s least steps.
Looks like an awesome trip! Jealous!
Breathtaking sites it was simply amazing!
Must be dumping water those days 🤔
Ya don’t know
Great video. Exactly what I was doing
Great! Very glad the video helped. Thank you for letting me know.
At 3:31 I am parked in handicapped spots. And some of you are getting on me for that. But what you may not know is the building that has those spots, is abandoned and has been like that for some time. No one is in this parking lot on the side or front. Its un-used spaces. I have more integrity than to park in HC spots. Thank you.
Well it's nice to know you're not going to get rump roast on your black seats. LOL
Yup no hot booty!
Why did you park on all the Handicap spaces? Remember that what goes around comes around ,and you will receive your karma when least expected!
All those handicap spaces are in front of an abandoned building. Believe me I know.
Again, I would never park in a handicap spot. I have better integrity than that. Please note that a building was abandoned and it has been like that for a while now.
Nice parking in several handicapped spots.
I parked in front of an abandoned business.
Again, I would never park in a handicap parking spot. I don’t think you might have realized that the building was abandoned.
Funny. Doesn't look like Iowa. Maybe he meant Nevada.
Definitely not San Diego. Ha ha. Had an amazing time is Arizona.
I know its so cringe everytime he says it
@@PancakeMan00 I'll do beter
Good video and good instructions
Glad you liked it. And I’m glad that it helped out. Not too many detailed videos out there to help with the cruise control. Enjoy!
just a heads up that's not Nevada that's Arizona side. the river is the border and your on the east side
Yes, I was aware of being in Arizona. Had an awesome time. Will be back in September. Thanks for watching.
@@TheOceansideGuy ....and just a heads up. You're pronouncing Navada wrong lol.
I always try to make sure I pronounce the “E“ it must be my former East Coast accent for some reason. Ha ha.
@@TheOceansideGuy it's not the e your messing up
Hate seeing those no PWC signs. These are not the PWCs from the 90's. They are much more safe and more like little boats. The rules need to be updated. Unfortunately PWC riders are stereotyped, meaning there are a lot of people wanting to keep us out.
Ya, I know. There are many lakes here in San Diego and we see those signs everywhere. There are still responsible PWC riders out there. But, there are always those that have to ruin it for everyone else. Thanks for chiming in my friend.
Yes stereotyped for sure....but man o man I wonder where it came from????hummm could never guess.....and why does it continue to grow....Humm wonder why.. .bc you idiots haven't cleaned up your god dahm act still! Yet the skis keep getting bigger and more dangerous.....and yet you guys continue to drive like absolute idiots! Yea hhmmm sure do wonder where it comes from.....
You should’ve got on his ski and helped him put it in the water
Not sure what you mean?
@@TheOceansideGuy I was saying you should’ve got on his ski and helped him launch it when he backed down in there also he should’ve helped you as well. Just makes it easier that way.
@@texasrider5621oh ok.
Willow Beach, the Colorado River, and Black Canyon up to the Hoover Dam and down to Lake Mohave are spectacular. I've boated that area three times and always had a lot of fun. I've been wanting to make the drive from California and take my mini-speedboat there again but I look at the Weather Channel and it says 117 degrees and, man, that's hot! It's good to be able to jump in the water to cool down, but still it's hot. ...Several times I've stayed at Willow Beach Campground through the years but these days they are charging about as much as a motel - about $80 or so... I would rather stay in a motel with air conditioning, hopefully one with a casino and sports book and drive to the boat ramp. I think either next week or the following week I'll [maybe] make the drive and hope the temp is down to about 100 or so! I also recently acquired another boat and although I've never done it, would like to attempt dispersed boat camping in my small cuddy along the shore somewhere in the canyon, but I don't know if I can pull that off - I certainly want to wait until it's a bit cooler so I'm not frying in the middle of the night. Anyway, nice video - I'm looking forward to seeing your video of going north in the canyon tomorrow. Maybe I'll see you out in the water one of these days!
Oh my gosh. YES...AMAZING views. Unexplainable. Had a great time and it was HOT! But worth it for sure. I'll be headed back in September for sure. North to the dam was AMAZING too! Thanks for reaching out and supporting the channel.
Another great video. Love that you are getting out here more often. Nelson Landing where the tents were and the road. There is a very cool ghost town on that road called Nelson Ghost Town. Pretty cool place to explore. Keep the vids coming!!
I had a BLAST riding down to Nelson Landing. (stay tuned...did I cliff jump) I'll have to explore the ghost town when I come back. Thanks for the tip. I am coming back in September for sure! Lets RIDE! Thank you for your support!
@TheOceansideGuy for sure. Let me know, I would love that. I say yes, you cliff dived. 😎
@@VegasHyperAdventures find me on IG the_oceansideguy
@@TheOceansideGuy Just followed!!!
Yes Sir. The Colorado River, close to my home. We don't go to the river during the summer season, it gets in the 117 degrees. Best time to go is usually in March, April, or October. Instead, go to Mission Bay 75 - 80 degrees in the summer 😅 So, is everyone ready for "Dana Point to Catalina and back"? I will be picking up the T-shirts today. 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing. Had a great time at Willow Beach.
No one ever says what they do.. what the difference is.. improve or not?.. and what is improved all about selling but not giving a reason to buy them.
I did an entire video series called the sponsors project. If you check out those videos that should answer your question.. in those videos we go over what the Sponsons re used for and why someone would want them to enhance their writing experience. Also a video on a comparison, it actual side-by-side riding experience comparison between the RIVA sponsons and stock sponson. It’s a good video. You should check it out for sure.
I have a bag too! Never-seize works great on em
Oh wow. Good tip!
Just put mine on, still need to hit the water.
Wow, that is awesome! You will definitely feel a difference! Let me know how it goes.
awesome video, make the job super easy after watching this! Thanks
Very cool! Glad the video helped. Thank you for watching and for a commenting.
What do you do to keep your engine bay dry?
What are the numbers on the rear plate?
Not exactly sure.
What’s better if I remove the sponsee or put these ones
What is your question?
You never say how fast it can go. That’s a little disappointing. Not following the theme of your own video.
Yeah, I goofed that one for sure. (was still a bit new to making videos.) Here’s a video with the actual speed test and speedometer on the screen. Sea-Doo GTX-230. TOP SPEED Testing Results. czcams.com/video/UysmE9YOq_c/video.html
Does anyone find the mounting bracket’s for the bumpers on the rear ones spray a lot of water on the passenger .Just had them installed on our 24 gti and find the rear ones throw off a spray for some reason.
Mounting brackets did not cause any issues. Only if you actually keep the bumper on there then yes you can get some spray back.
@@TheOceansideGuy Bumpers are not left on during riding ,but passenger gets sprayed by water hitting the rear mounts ?
@@BruceMacDonald-yr9rx very strange. Not sure how that actually happens. I have not heard of that at all. Maybe you could send me a photo. Find me on Instagram the Oceanside guy.
Nice video. I always put a towel under and around areas that I might drop a part….that way you have a fighting chance of fumble recovery. Also, I don’t drop the plugs in….that can bugger up the gap. Instead, I put the plug in the socket and hand spin it in…less risk of cross threading. Only when fully hand threaded do I put the socket wrench on. Most Rotax 4-stroke engines want plugs torqued to about 20-22 foot pounds. Dielectric grease on the coil sockets as well….eases the next service removal.
Thank you. Good information. That was my first oil change ever. Thanks for the tips!
Awesome, can’t wait!
Video coming out soon! Had a blast!
A lot of small engine makers want the oil changed at 10 hours, so must be something behind it. I’ll be changing mine at 10 hours then a 100 hours.
Right. Especially after a break in process.
Will it cause issues with the IDF discharge?
Not at all. You could even ask RIVA.
@@TheOceansideGuy did you notice or feel a difference with the riva grat?
definitely! I have ridden both skis, one width, and one without the intake great from RIVA. It really keeps the ski tighter to the water.
Low profile. What do you use for a rear mount? I’m trying to set up for the rear, too, to capture some tubing.
I do not have a rear camera. But most I see use the Insta 360 Camera. There are a few out there. But check this one out. They are not cheap. amzn.to/3znCxmN If its a good fit. Use my link. I do get a small kick back.
@@TheOceansideGuy Thanks. Already ordered a GoPro Hero 11 Black Action Camera Bundle from Costco for $239.99 + tax. Waiting for that to come in.
@@NewToSea-Doo nice! I have the GoPro hero 11, which is my main camera. I also have a GoPro hero 9 which I mount to the front of my ski or even mount it to the back of my vehicle to get shots of launching and retrieving the Sea-Doo.
What’s the cap please? 😁
Love the Skull Cap. Here is my link. amzn.to/3L6yttK
@@TheOceansideGuyIt looks more like a peaked cap…? 🤔
@@LukeTPZ oh. Yes it’s just a regular hat I suppose.
@@TheOceansideGuy It kinda looked like it was some kind of neoprene material or something. I’m looking for a water-specific peaked cap. I shall continue my quest!
@@LukeTPZ OK. Sorry I couldn’t help you.
What are your glasses/goggles, please?
HeatWave Glasses. I have had several. The pair in this video you watched are my favorite. Here’s a link to the first time I have these sunglasses. My Sea-Doo GTX-230 IT JUST HAPPENED! I had to unveil the NEW RIDDING GASSES! czcams.com/video/XcfL1GjwJpw/video.html
Neat!
Not too bad, right? Stay tuned for the full video.
Well how the intake work out???
I gotta say, it worked out great! Huge difference between the stock intake grate and the intake grate by RIVA. Huge riding difference.
Sweet. Borrowed a buddies pump. A little slower than yours but she did the trick!
Nice! Lots of different pumps out there. I found this one pretty useful. Thanks for watching the video and thank you for commenting. What ski do you have?
