BOATTEST.COM - 2015 was the first year of the new hull design for Yamaha jet boats. The Yamaha Watercraft Group has brought several innovations to the market with its 2015 240 Series of jet boats which includes the 242 Limited S. One of the items that shined during our test and evaluation was the way in which this model drove and handled. An entirely new hull and deck design along with an “Articulating Keel” delivered a crisp, responsive ride that completely changes the way a boater will look at jet boats. Our report will also look at the Connext Helm Control System, Yamaha’s Quiet Cruise, and her additional key features. Articulating KeelProbably the biggest change to jet boat design in the last ten years, the Yamaha Articulating Keel has dramatically changed the way this boat drives. Essentially they changed the shape of the hull with the addition of a dihedral keel, culminating at the stern with an articulating piece measuring approximately 11” long, 6.5” tall, 0.5” wide (thickness). Acting in concert with the motion of the jet nozzles, this rudder like extension has enhanced the overall ride stability as well as the low and high speed turning of the 242 Limited S in a remarkable way.Key FeaturesRemovable dinette table with 2 pedestalsPortside entertainment area with lockable gloveboxIntegrated removable coolerIntegrated swim platform and telescoping reboarding ladder''No Wake Mode'' controlPolk marine stereo with Bluetooth capabilityBimini topFlush mounted tweeter speakers and LED lights in wakeboard towerTandem axel painted trailer with swing-away tonguePurchased brand new from Cycle Springs in Clearwater Fl and regularly serviced at Barneys.
