I had a 2013 Rxtx 260. I was in the middle of messing around with a yamaha Fzr when the jetski shut off on me and wouldn't start. Exhaust leak. I started to sink as well. the jetski was completely underwater and i had a rope tied around the eye of the ski and around my ankle as a tread water and wait for the police to rescue me. It was less than a month old and only had 16 hours on it. Sea-doo of north America was nice enough to refund me my entire purchase price and the dealer sold me a 2014 RXTX for a steep discount. 100+ hours on new ski and Im Riva stage 2 with no problems at all!

Holy shit man! OMG can you imagine you were alone in the middle of the Long Island sound when that happened!? The closest you'd be to land was either 10 miles North or 10 miles south if you were out in the middle, and you'd be drifting east pretty quickly headed out to the Atlantic ocean! That would not be good. Thankfully you were ok.

This happened to me too about a year ago except I was alone. I was about 15 miles from the ramp when I noticed my acceleration had dropped off immensely after going through a no wake zone. Got to the nearest marina, checked my engine compartment and saw water in it. Decided I was going to run full throttle and try to make it home. I only made it another 2 miles before I ran it up on the nearest boat ramp. The engine shut off about 100 feet before I made it there, but I did save the ski

Those bars are the Renthal fat bars. That ski had the UNI steering stem that allows you to use any bars you would like. You can also use the stock steering (with some mods) and use any 7/8 mx bar. For the controls I just used a dremel tool and cut a lot of the extra plastic off once I had the bars installed. I think you can get aftermarket housings from RIVA Racing though. The RIVA ones definitely have a better fit and finish.

Glad you made it back in alright, That tends to happen farly often with modified standup's. Exhaust heats up and destroys the seal on the rubber piping. Usually its all to blame on some stupidly tiny piece of debris that gets into the cooling system and gets caught in a fitting or tap area. Its silly how something as small as a single piece of styrofoam 0.044 of an inch can determine wether or not your ski lives or dies. I added an inline water screen filter after I cooked my 650sx's engine.

The one for the keys was actually a dry box that came with a tether on it. When I pulled it in the video the box broke open and I was left with just my keys. The tether for the GoPro (if that is what you were asking about) is an 1/8 inch piece of stainless cord from Home Depot with some pieces I crimped to hold the ends and make loops. Then I attached the chord to itself with one of those mountain climbing type clips.

After jumping waves there for about half an hour I headed back towards the boat ramp and shortly after the engine cut out and I began to sink. Luckily a boater came by, rescued me and towed my POS back to the ramp. I later found out I had cracked the hull from jumping the waves. lesson learned....
