Yamaha new boat release at 11am. It is the 2016 Yamaha 190 FSH - Live Coverage

[Murf'n'surf]

I'm live from the Miami Boat Show to bring you a detailed look at the new Yamaha jet boat. I will post up pics and details at the launch.

@Murf'n'surf, I hope you don't mind. I am adding your additional info to your first post. My edits are in blue. Bruce

Here are Scott's initial photos. He will be climbing aboard after Yamaha finishes a video they are recording.


Notice the off-set swim ladder. The left hatch contains a large access hole into the bilge. The right hatch is storage and will fit a 5 gallon bucket.


Helm seat back pivots to allow forward and backward seating

Lockable storage box under the wheel. Lots of customizable space on the dash to install a chart plotter or other electronic devices.

Docking lights

New keel design to add stability and better straight line tracking

Gas tank access at the helm

Stainless steel ratchet enclosed in pocket that holds the canvas portion of the T-Top onto the frame with nylon webbing (same principle as our shipping covers)


Removable windscreen

Starboard side of the storage/head area in the console

Floor of storage/head area in the console

Right side of storage/head area in the console.

Port side fishing rod holders.

@jcyamaharider I have got to ask, every time I see your signature pic I ask my self, how the hell did you get the boat beached that far and how the hell did you get it off the beach! I've never seen one so far out of the water that it is listing to one side like that????

 

[Bruce]

Thanks for going @Murf'n'surf, I hope you have a great time.

 

[Joey Martinez]

LMAO.... It actually isn't beached that far on the sand bar, that's what 2700 lbs of ballast looks like on the sand bar. I actually pushed it a little farther out because I knew it was going to sink and list over. We pushed it off just like normal.

Not the same time but here is what it looks like from the other side when we fill at the sand bar.

One time on the sandbar we did see a 242 Limited s beached so far up I have no idea how they got that thing off the sand bar. I bet 3/4 of the boat was out of the water.



Anyways back to the topic at hand, Where is this boat!!!!

I like the gauges and under seat ice chest storage.
