No, sea-doos have an impeller that will suck up sand, rocks, seaweed and all other debris associated with the shores and shallow waterways. All Sea-doo’s are required to stay at least in 5 feet of water to avoid causing damage to the impeller and important components that are necessary for the Sea-doo to drive. Failure to adhere to this, is considered unsafe practice and can leave you and your passengers stranded, needing assistance.
