VALCOURT, QC – February 4, 2014 –  BRP receives yet another recognition for the high-performance Sea-Doo RXP-X 260 watercraft, claiming the 2013 “Best Watercraft of the Year” award from Jet Ski Magazine. It is the second year in a row that the readers of this publication around the world have honoured the Sea-Doo RXP-X 260 with this award.

“The Sea-Doo RXP-X is simply amazing for its performance, ergonomics and handling,” said Karim Nemouchi, Chief Editor of Jet Ski Magazine. “Its innovative design is futuristic and aggressive and is appreciated by riders around the world”.

BRP’s Sea-Doo RXP-X has redefined the performance segment with a distinctive new Ergolock system and tight-turning T³ hull, as well as an ominous visual appeal from its flowing facet design, ram air intake and large side grills.
