| 2007 | not recorded | not recorded | not recorded | Sit-down | BRP's own Sea-Doo parts catalogue for the US lists this machine for 2007 as "GTI 4-TEC STD" under the GTI family. CORRECTED 2026-10-02: the catalogue entry names it 4-TEC, which is the four-stroke family, so the 717 carburetted two-stroke this row used to carry was wrong. No engine is claimed in its place, because the catalogue entry is a model name and nothing else is cited here. The 2015 row carried the same three values and was corrected with it. | Source 5 |
