Ski Doo facts
While investigating facts about Ski Doo, I found out little known, but curios details like:
"Ski Doo" snowmobile was originally named as "Ski Dog". A painter misinterpreted it and painted "Ski-Doo" on the first prototype.
The inventor of the jet ski and Sea Doo was a motorcycle racer. While drinking beer with a friend next to an irrigation ditch, pulling gravel out of wounds, he came up with the idea where he could still have the exhilaration of a motorcycle with the more forgiving water to land on.
In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 5 of the best facts about Ski Doo I managed to collect.

The original name of Ski-Doo snowmobiles was Ski-Dog, but a typographical error in a Bombardier brochure changed the name Ski-Dog to Ski-Doo.
