Sea-Doo 180 Challenger / 180 Challenger SE

Big where it counts
Remember that whole “tip of the iceberg” concept? Thanks to its meticulous use of space and the ingenuity of a powerful yet compact Rotax 4-TEC engine, the 180 Challenger SE offers the expansive feel of a 20-footer (6 meters) inside an 18-foot (5.50 meters) shell. There’s plenty of room for up to 8 people to stretch out. No shortage of creature comforts. And more than enough excitement, courtesy of a new hull designed for superior handling and a 255 hp engine that achieves a greater top speed and better fuel economy than comparable stern drives.
