The new 2022 Sea-Doo FishPro Trophy personal watercraft is a cleverly designed, tournament-level fishing platform packed over a sprightly and proficient little water buggy. This swift PWC was expertly envisioned and purpose-built for anglers looking to target a variety of species on a very agile, lightweight conveyance. Many anglers may not consider a jet-ski style platform when considering small affordable fishing boats, but this watercraft offers a chance to re-assess that notion. Due to some serious fishing features included on such a nimble package, the vessel is certainly more than worth a consideration. Let's take a look at some of the top highlights of this new craft.

Overall Product Design


The PWC fishing market has been heating up in recent years and we think this new offering from Sea-Doo proves the builder is still standing at the forefront of that growing market segment. Sea-Doo originally released their first fishing-centric PWC platform back in 2019. Now with three models in their PWC fishing line up, the Trophy joins the previous FishPro Scout and FishPro Sport as the new "flagship" of these models.

FishPro Trophy Performance Specs


For solo anglers seeking hard-to-reach inland fishing spots or for those looking for an extremely portable and nimble platform, the FishPro Trophy 170 is hard to beat in terms of features and performance in her class. Powered by a Rotax 1630 ACE 170 HP engine , the top speed on the Trophy is blistering 58 mph with a max-rated capacity of 600 pounds. That's the highest horsepower, naturally aspirated engine in the FishPro lineup giving owners optimized performance, reliability and fuel economy. At the controls, operators will enjoy an ergonomically-mounted 7-inch touchscreen display with Fish Finder and GPS plus an advanced dual battery system. The dry weight of the FishPro Trophy 170 is 858 pounds, so she's easy to launch and retrieve not to mention push around on the water when needed.

Style, Aesthetics And Features 


The stylish "shark grey" and "orange crush" trim color scheme is sleek and modern looking giving an appearance many owners will appreciate. That 360-degree swivel seat makes extended fishing excursions more comfortable and convenient. A pure-bred exploring machine, this adventurous platform comes with a built-in compact livewell, unique anchoring system and modern controls and features like a fish finer and trolling modes. The livewell is called a "quick connect" livewell because it turns the onboard cooler into a livewell with constantly flowing water and can also double as a fresh water washdown when needed.

Sea-Doo FishPro Trophy Price


Best of all perhaps is the price of this innovative little watercraft. With an MSRP of $17,799 this affordable fishing rig will be in line with a lot of buyer's budgets, even the more modest ones. It's worth noting that for buyers looking for an even more economical fishing vessel under the 15K price point, the Trophy's little sister the FishPro Scout 130 currently has an MSRP of $13,899. Either of these cost substantially less than other fishing boat options on the market and buyers would be hard pressed to beat out some of the features found on the FishPro Trophy 170.
