Other highlights
Is there such a thing as too much power? Maybe. The good news is that Sea-Doo came up with the iControl Learning Key, a different, programmable key that you can use to limit the speed of the watercraft based on a rider's skill level.

Meanwhile, Intelligent Brake and Reverse (iBR), the world’s only on-water braking system, helps you come to a full stop over a significantly shorter distance. It also makes docking far easier than it has ever been, the company says.

Let's not forget the patented D-Sea-Bel sound reduction system that makes Sea-Doo watercraft among the quietest. However, riders who want to make waves – literally – will happily keep an eye on the new X-Gauge with boost indicator.

All in all, the 2012 Sea-Doo RXP-X 260 looks like a sure-fire way to enjoy cool times on the water.
