Go behind the scenes with Yamaha designers as they build a better boating experience

Finding:

Yamaha's Internal Propulsion system is the leader in the industry.

Subject:

Internal Propulsion

The heart and soul of these boats is Yamaha’s industry-leading internal propulsion system. For more than 25 years, Yamaha engineers have developed this technology into the most reliable and fuel-efficient drivetrain on the water.

The Yamaha Advantage:

An entirely new boating experience.

Finding:

Yamaha’s 21-Foot Boats Weight Up To 1300lbs Less Than
the Competition.

Subject:

Lightweight (21ft boats)

Because Yamaha’s 21-foot boats weigh thousands of pounds less than the competition, they are easier to tow with stronger performance, exceptional handling and better fuel efficiency. Overall, they are a better designed boat.

The Yamaha Advantage:

Better Performance, handling, and fuel Efficiency

Finding:

Yamaha’s 24-Foot Boats Weight Up To 1300lbs Less Than
the Competition.

Subject:

Lightweight (24ft boats)

Because Yamaha’s 24-foot boats weigh thousands of pounds less than the competition, they are easier to tow with stronger performance, exceptional handling and better fuel efficiency. Overall, they are a better designed boat.

The Yamaha Advantage:

Better Performance, handling, and fuel Efficiency

Finding:

The draft of Yamaha's 21-Foot Boats is up to 2 Feet
Less than the Competition.

Subject:

Draft (21ft)

Yamaha's compact internal drivetrain does not have an exposed lower unit, resulting in a draft that is up to half that of the competition. This means more peace of mind for Yamaha owners and the freedom to explore areas that other boats can't reach.

The Yamaha Advantage:

No exposed lower unit

Finding:

The draft of Yamaha's 24-Foot Boats is up to Half
Less than the Competition.

Subject:

Draft (24ft)

Yamaha's compact internal drivetrain does not have an exposed lower unit, resulting in a draft that is up to half that of the competition. This means more peace of mind for Yamaha owners and the freedom to explore areas that other boats can't reach.

The Yamaha Advantage:

No exposed lower unit

Finding:

Yamaha technology helps boats maneuver at slow speeds.

Subject:

Low Speed Handling

New for Yamaha in 2012 is a thrust directional enhancer that maximizes control and maneuverability. This new design directs the water flow at an optimum angle, creating more responsive handling as the boat is turned right and left at slow speeds.

The Yamaha Advantage:

Better maneuverability around docks and while loading.
