First Aquador Boats in the US
PropTalk was on-hand for the official launch of Aquador Boats in the US and got a first-look at the 250HT and 300HT. These powerboats are ideal for weekend cruising and share similar characteristics such as a hard-top design and a long list of standard features.
Based in Finland, Aquador Boats is celebrating its 30th anniversary next year. PropTalk's editor sits down with Todd Hess, the president and CEO of SailTime (@sailtime ) and PowerTime, Aquador's exclusive distribution partner, and Jonathan Cole, brand manager at Aquador Boats, to get a first look at these two models.

    Love the video and understand why you fast-forwarded the cockpit enclosure segment so we don't get bored, but how long was the real-world setup? 10 minutes? 15?

    • @PropTalkMagazine

      About three and a half minutes to fully enclose the cockpit. Thanks for watching!

    Hey quick question we just bought that exact same one how do we beach in properly bc the vts (little black box where the propeller is at) always rubs on the sand pulling it in and out and I don’t want debre to get In there

      We didn't try beaching them during our test so I would direct that question to Sea-Doo for the best recommendations. Thanks for watching!

    Thats the boat the super overweight family with about 5 or 6 super ugly fat kids ALWAYS buy to drive around while they eat and get severe sun burns . Throw in an oversized skitube that's way too big to fit in the boat and a big bucket of cajun fried pork rinds for the Mom , they'll break the door down to buy that thing .

    range ??? only 57miles? NO WAY would I own it.....I had rather run out of gas any day

    • @Ahldor
      @Ahldor 28 днів тому

      Yes, but those 57 miles will only cost you ~$8 "to fill up" in electricity. The boat is not made for very open water or very long trips. For shorter trips like in an archipelago (where it's made and tested) it's perfect. You'll have to wait another 10-15 years for a 100-120 mile range electric boat.

    • @richardb8317
      @richardb8317 27 днів тому

      @Ahldor yea..people think electricity is free...many people don't understand the power grid uses the same fossil fuels to make a worse carbon footprint than a gas engine...much like the stupidity of the battery vehicles...what a scam

      The base model Sea-Doo Switch starts at $23,699. While we were on the Switch Cruise Limited, most of the details are about the Switch model lineup in general. Thank you for the comment and for watching!

    I ate at Mrs Kitchens house when I was a kid, I’m now 59 and still remember going into her house and sitting at the table and she fed us one of the best meal I’ve ever had. Back in the early 70 s . I grew up in the summers in Deal Island and still have a house there we use on weekends and holidays. I got to dredge and cull oysters in Honga river and the Tangier Sound on the skipjack Claud W. Sommers and the Helen Virginia. Fished up soft crabs out of floats on the water with lights strung over them very early in the mornings. Packaged them in wax covered boxes to go to the buyer. Pulled pots in the summer on the workboat. It was a much better time then. I miss the older guys that are now gone. They taught me a lot of things about the water, some of which saved my life.

    • @24rezimodnaR
      @24rezimodnaR 7 місяців тому

      If you’re wondering why it can’t go faster it’s because the USCG requires the manufacturer to limit to under 70mph. If you want to go faster, that is why the aftermarket exists
