Consider that the Kawasaki Jet Ski Ultra 250X has a dry weight of 904 pounds, and an estimated weight of 1,024 pounds with a full tank of fuel, and it seems that the new Honda will be on the light side in this class. It's impossible to make a weight comparison from the specs, because Honda has gone from listing a dry weight to listing a more realistic "curb" weight of 961 pounds, which includes the weight of fuel and oil. The new fiberglass hull is 11 feet 2 inches long, or about 8 inches longer than the hull of the AquaTrax F-12X, and shares that boat's beam of 4 feet 1 inch. The new model was introduced at the Honda dealer meeting last month, but has not been offered to the media for testing, so we are left for now to look at pictures and the spec sheet. The three-passenger AquaTrax F-15X features longer hull designed to deliver a smoother and drier ride, and more displacement and power from a turbocharged, 1470cc engine. Honda is showing renewed interest in its AquaTrax watercraft line in 2008 with the launch of the F-15X, the first really all-new AquaTrax model from Honda since it entered the PWC market in 2002. A flip-down boarding ladder and two-tone seat are also specific to this model, which is powered by a 200-hp turbocharged/intercooled engine. Distinguished by its Candy Red color, the 2008 Honda AquaTrax F-15X GPScape features a standard GPS navigation system.
