2026 Sea-Doo jet ski line-up revealed: new tech, new colours, higher prices

Personal watercraft market leader Sea-Doo has unveiled next year’s models in the US overnight. Here are the key changes due in local showrooms in time for the Aussie summer

Sea-Doo has given almost half its model range a technology boost with the largest touchscreen ever fitted to a jet ski.

The 10.25-inch display – which debuted last year on the Sea-Doo GTX Limited 325 – will now be available on seven of the 15 models in the 2026 line-up.

By comparison, the next-largest display in the segment is the 7-inch screen fitted to Yamaha’s latest FX WaveRunner series.

Sea-Doo’s 10.25-inch unit not only out-sizes rivals but also adds new levels of functionality to the personal watercraft market.

Riders can monitor the location of their friends (provided they’re on compatible Sea-Doo models), use an embedded version of the Navionics app (subscription required), and control music streaming directly via the screen.

The touchscreen-equipped models also gain new, more prominent controls on the handlebars, located near the grips. The redesigned thumb-operated tabs allow riders to toggle functions without taking their hands off the bars or eyes off the water.

The seven Sea-Doo models adopting the new 10.25-inch dash are:

  • GTX Limited 325
  • RXP-X 325
  • RXT-X 325
  • Explorer Pro 170
  • Explorer Pro 230
  • Fish Pro Trophy 170
  • Wake Pro 230

Price shuffle

At the entry end, the price of the base-model Sea-Doo Spark has been slashed by $1900 to an RRP of $9999 (ski only, excluding trailer and registration). That move puts it head-to-head with Yamaha’s 2025 JetBlaster, also priced at $9999.

Both these budget models, however, are fairly bare-bones and lack a reverse trigger, so first-time buyers may want to step up to a higher-spec version.

At the other end of the range, Sea-Doo continues to court the booming jet ski fishing market. The flagship 2026 Sea-Doo Fish Pro Trophy 170 gains the 10.25-inch dash, a larger 9-inch Garmin touchscreen fish finder, and a new handlebar set-up.

Borrowing from the Explorer Pro, the Trophy now features a handlebar height adjustment extension, making those two models the only jet skis on the market (alongside the limited edition Fish Pro Apex offered briefly last year) to offer tilt and height adjustable handlebars. The update makes riding while standing, particularly for taller riders, significantly easier.

The Trophy also receives a new steering damper system, giving riders the choice of heavy or light steering effort in tight turns.

However, these upgrades come at a cost: the 2026 Fish Pro Trophy 170 is now priced at $32,699 (ski only, excluding trailer and registration), up $2100. That makes it the most expensive non-supercharged jet ski currently on sale.

Colours and crowd-pleasers

Sea-Doo’s new performance flagships have also sparked a frenzy among enthusiasts thanks to a new colour option. The supercharged RXP-X 325 and RXT-X 325 are now offered in Gulfstream Blue, with both also adopting the 10.25-inch dash.

Meanwhile, the three-seat Spark Trixx gets a new blue-and-orange livery for 2026. Known for its party trick of riding on its tail at the press of a button, the Spark Trixx remains one of the brand’s most popular models thanks to its balance of affordability, fun factor, and beginner-friendly design.

Arrival in Australia

Sea-Doo dealers expect the first shipments of the 2026 line-up to arrive in Australian showrooms in time for summer – late November or early December – pending any unforeseen delays.
