2008 Sea-Doo 180 Challengerproject boat in need of cosmetic and electrical updates. While we aren’t certain, we do believe that it needs a new MPEM fuse box (part no #: 204471264). We’re selling all of our boats “AS IS – WHERE IS” and this project boat is no different. We have purposely priced it very low as we intend to offload it fast to a handy person who knows what he or she is getting themseleves in to. We are not prepared to spend hours on in to assist in troubleshooting every system on the boat or photo document the same (if we had that kind of time – we would not have advertised it in the first place). What you see is what you get. Happy Bidding.
WALKTHROUGH
The bow is flanked with two mini chaise lounges and a center cushion that slides out to create a small pad. There are a couple of cupholders here as well as two rugged handholds. Under both of the lounges is glassed-in draining storage, great for ice and drinks. The deck of the bow area and the cockpit is covered with a nonskid surface, which is a nice safety feature.
A walkway cuts through the helm leading to the cockpit — in the deck of the walkway there is a large ski locker with a tight seal and a spring that holds the lid open.
The helm to port features a deep glove box that would be an ideal area to keep a few changes of dry clothes. This is also where the standard Clarion Marine AM/FM CD player and a 12v outlet are located. Along the inboard gunwale is another cupholder, more storage and a padded armrest. The swivel bucket seat is adjustable forward and aft, but it doesn’t have a bolster, which we feel would greatly improve visibility.
To port is the driver’s helm, which houses a standard cluster of instruments and switches. Like the port bucket seat, the driver’s seat swivels and can be adjusted forward and aft, but again, no bolster. Our tester actually ended up bending his leg under and sitting on it so he could see over the top lip of the windscreen. The wheel was sporty and had great grip, but there wasn’t any tilt steering.
The rear bench has plenty of room for three with more storage under the seats. A hatch opens aft to port to reveal battery storage and to starboard to reveal more storage and side access to the engine. The engine access hatch is supported by gas-assist shocks and the compartment itself is pretty tight.
All the way aft is a large integrated a swim platform with a ladder and grab handles makes family watersports much more convenient, safe and enjoyable.
PERFORMANCE
With 3 adults and about 11 gallons of fuel the intercooled 215 hp Rotax Marine 4-TEC in-line three-cylinder four-stroke engine reaches a top speed of over 45 MPH. The craft’s steep deadrise of 20 degrees cuts through the chop for a comfortable ride at cruising speed. One of the main advantage with this jetboat is its shallow draft. Because the water intake to the jet pump is at the skin of the underside of the craft and the thrust nozzle out behind the transom (instead of below it), jet drives are some of the shallowest drafting craft available. Our 180 only drafts 1 foot, witch is about 1 or 1.5 feet less than a runabout of the same size with a stern drive. This means greater access to the shallows and less worry overall about striking ground.
