[IvanS]

Does anyone have real info (pics better ) about what is coming new or changing for the 2017 models?

....rumor has it that the new Yamaha 242Z is time travel enabled...
You guessed it, top speed is 88mph!

 

[bronze_10]

I bet it leaves flames on the water surface when it hits 88 mph..

Twin, parrallel flames, equidistant to the corresponding JetNozzles whence they came.

 

[haknslash]

and the registration numbers are left spinning on top of the water in between the flames...

The hear the engines produce 1.21 gigawatts too!

Keep checking back on this forum. Details should arrive soon.

I noticed that the current financing offers from Yamaha expire on 8/23 this month. They normally expire at the end of the month. My money is on getting some news on the 2017 models on or around 8/23..

Just wait until they put twin engines in the 190s.

212XXX edition. With an OEM stripper pole, strobe LED lighting and a fog machine.

I think @Julian in in ATL checking them out right now so I'm assuming it wont be long. I'm sure he wont be able to talk about it till the dealers convention though

 

[RightStuff]

The 2016 details were posted on Aug 22nd last year, so you probably have a few weeks yet to go.

 

[Evil Sports]

Yes it will be the 20 something , earlier than later

Look what I found:

http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/offroad/cert/eo/2017/sime/u-w-003-0332.pdf

212 Limited and Limited S. The 192's arent CARB compliant so there may be more models not listed here.

ENGINE MODELS
SX240 High Output (122 kW)
AR240 High Output (122 kW)
SX190 (122 kW)
AR190 (122 kW)
242X E-series (122 kW)
242 Limited S E-series (122 kW)
242 Limited S (122 kW)
242 Limited E-series (122 kW) kW)
212X (122 kW)
212 Limited (122 kW)
212 Limited S (1 22 kW)

Ok if Yamaha is only adding a Limited and Limited S to to the 21' lineup then I think they are really missing a the potential demographic for more sales. There is such a huge price gap from the 19' to 21' boats that adding an AR or SX 21' back into the fold would seem like a much better chance to increase sales rather than make two more higher priced models. Also the fact they all say 122 KW sounds like no TR-1 after all.

 

[Ancient canoe]

Agree who wants a more expensive 21 foot boat options unless they are able to rival dedicated wake boats which I doubt a 21 limited and limited S will. My guess is a 21' limited would overlap the price of SX/AR 240 with similar functionality but in a smaller package. In reading these boards that doesn't seem to be the demand.

 

[jlcj7]

I agree there wouldn't be much difference between a 212X and a 212 Limited S... The bigger gap is at the lower price point SX/AR 210

 

[RightStuff]

My OCD just went haywire with the way that list was ordered in the CARB filing...

So here's what we are looking at in order (by what I would think) in the smallest to largest and likely the lowest to highest price.

19' group - 2016 prices: $27,999 - $29,999

• SX190 (122 kW)
• AR190 (122 kW)

21' group - 2016 prices: $45,999 - $49,499

• 212 Limited (122 kW) (No tower, replacing the SX210)
• 212 Limited S (1 22 kW) (Tower and no ballast system, replacing the AR210)
• 212X (122 kW) (Tower and ballast system? A 'wake sports' boat, basically a 21' version of the 242X?)

24' group - 2016 prices: $50,999 - $58,999

• SX240 High Output (122 kW)
• AR240 High Output (122 kW)
• 242 Limited S (122 kW)

24' E-series group - 2016 prices: $61,999 - $71,999

• 242 Limited E-series (122 kW) kW)
• 242 Limited S E-series (122 kW)
• 242X E-series (122 kW)

 

[Ancient canoe]

In how they have the 24' setup, I would guess that the current 212SS is essentially the same as new 212 Limited, and a 212 Limited S would just be an added wake tower to the 212 SS. If that's the case why would you buy an Limited S and not a X?

 

[jlcj7]

That would be a huge jump from a 19' to 21' in price...Basically $15,000-$20,000 to make the jump.

Under these assumptions, you could jump 21' to 24' for only $1500
