2022 Sea-Doo Fish Pro Trophy — Should You Buy One?
Typical asking price: $16,000–$21,000. This is one of the more reliable vehicles in its class — here's what to watch for anyway.
Kestrel Take
The most serious fishing PWC — the Fish Pro Trophy adds a big cooler, rod holders, a fish finder, extended range, and even a trolling mode to Sea-Doo's stable hull, turning a ski into a genuine micro-skiff. The naturally aspirated Rotax (no supercharger) keeps maintenance lower. A low-hour, well-flushed Fish Pro with clean compression and working fishing gear is a superb niche machine; verify the electronics and cooler package.
What we checked
Not checked against public records
Personal watercraft fall to the Consumer Product Safety Commission rather than NHTSA. Its recall feed rarely names a specific model year, so we have not wired it in — matching on the brand alone would attach other people’s machines to this page. What follows is our own write-up, and it has not been reconciled against an official record. Treat it as a starting point, not a verdict.
