Our twin internal four-stroke Yamaha Marine engines offer incomparable handling and allow our boats to accelerate twice as fast as competitive stern-drive boats – going from 0-30 in half the time, while using two fewer gallons of fuel per hour. FASTER PLANING Yamaha’s internal propulsion system delivers explosive acceleration and reduces bow rise. When the boat pushes forward, the higher thrust point of our boats allows them to plane more quickly than stern-drive boats.       SWIM PLATFORM DESIGN With Yamaha's internal propulsion and compact engine design, our innovative swim platform rests at the water level, allowing you and your family to get in and out of the water with ease.     SHALLOW WATER CLEARANCE Because of the internal engine design, our boats are able to navigate in shallow water, so you have the freedom to explore parts of the water a traditional stern-drive wouldn’t be able to reach. Yamaha deploys state of the art robotics in the manufacturing of our hulls and decks. Using precision laser guidance, the robots are able to cut and drill each hull and deck to exact specifications, ensuring each boat is built the same down to the smallest measurement.
