Details

Highlights:
•    Twin Yamaha 1.8L marine engines, the most powerful drivetrain package in a Yamaha 21-foot boat.
•    Thrust directional enhancer for improved slow speed handling.
•    Sport performance helm.
•    Award-winning two-tier swim platform design.
•    Features GPS instrumentation and Yamaha’s No Wake Mode and Cruise Assist.
•    Every part of the boat: Hull, deck and engine all manufactured and assembled by Yamaha

•    Sport edition of the 212 Series.
•    Dual Captain’s Chairs in the cockpit.
•    Available in Carbon.

Returning to the Yamaha boat line is the powerful 21-foot Yamaha 212 Series that is designed for the high-performance boating enthusiast who is attracted to class-leading acceleration and eye-popping contemporary styling.  Both models feature powerful twin 1.8L Yamaha marine engines.  These are the only 21-foot Yamaha boats that feature 1.8L Yamaha marine engines.  
The nine-passenger Yamaha 212 Series includes the 212SS and the 212X.  The 212X is the watersports edition of the series and is the only Yamaha boat to feature an internal ballast system that adds up to 750 pounds at the stern and six inches of wake.


Innovative Deck Design
The bow and cockpit of the 212 Series is cavernous for a 21-foot boat; making it easier to navigate with a full crew on board. This roomy layout gives the 212 Series the look and feel of a much larger boat.  
The bow is wider and longer than competitive models to better accommodate more passengers and the seating can be rearranged several innovative ways depending on cushion placement.  The 212 Series comes with Yamaha’s exclusive front-facing “rumble” seats that are a favorite with kids. The anchor/ladder locker is also quite large, making access to the anchor and ladder more convenient.  Finishing the bow are two speakers and two cup holders.
Featured in the cockpit area is a huge port side under seat storage locker. This high capacity compartment is large enough to store a full-size cooler, several PFDs and much more.

The sport performance helm of 212 Series is impressive, looking more like the helm of a high performance powerboat than a recreational runabout. The helm includes GPS instrumentation and large analog gauges with integrated digital information displays that provide independently controlled access to a wide range of information.
Also at the helm are Yamaha’s Cruise Assist™ and No Wake Mode™. When engaged, Cruise Assist will hold the engines at a specific RPM for effortless cruising or towing and can be increased eight positions up and eight positions down at pre-set increments (125 – 188 rpm depending on current engine speed). The No Wake Mode includes three different RPM settings allowing the driver to easily increase or decrease their no wake speed to find the optimum setting.
Completing the helm area is a comfortable, adjustable Captain’s Chair with a flip-up bolster, a premium sound system with a remote at the stern, and five chrome cupholders that are positioned throughout the cockpit.  The 212X comes with a fold-down aluminum watersport tower that makes storage more convenient and the 212SS comes with dual Captain’s Chairs.


Award-Winning Stern Lounge Area
The two-tier stern lounge area and swim platform of the 212 Series is more spacious and lower to the water than ever, making the stern area a great place to hang out when anchored in your favorite cove. The stern lounge area includes a mount for the 212’s dinette table, a stereo remote control, padded backrests, hydro-turf® deck mats, cup holders and a reboarding ladder. There’s even a wet storage locker where wet ropes or small inflatables can be stored without having to carry them through the boat.

Yamaha’s Signature Drive Train and Powerful 1.8L Engine Package
The key features that have the 212 Series outperforming its competition are Yamaha’s compact, lightweight high output Yamaha marine engines and unique internal drive system that delivers better performance and more peace of mind than traditional stern drive models. Yamaha’s ultra-responsive internal drive system brings the 212 Series on plane faster and accelerates quicker than any other 21-foot boat in the market.

The 212’s dual throttles are extended inside the cockpit and away from the freeboard for easier operation when seated on the flip-up bolster.  This throttle position allows for maximum maneuverability and engine control.

The heart of the 212 Series are two powerful 1.8L Yamaha marine engines, the largest power package ever in a 21-foot Yamaha boat.  These engines deliver 0-30 mph acceleration in under 4 seconds and top speed that exceeds 55mph.  And equally impressive is the fact that these engines sip fuel at normal cruising speeds for a cruising range of more than 130 miles.  

A recent addition to all Yamaha boats is a thrust directional enhancer that maximizes control and maneuverability. The thrust directional enhancer directs the water flow at an optimum angle, creating more responsive handling as the boat is turned right and left at slow speeds.  

Standard Features:
•    Twin 1.8L Yamaha marine engines that lead the industry in fuel efficiency and cruising range while delivering awesome performance and industry-best reliability and durability.
•    Yamaha’s 3-position No Wake Mode that allows the driver to set the engines at optimum no wake speed with the simple push of a button.
•    Cruise Assist™, Yamaha’s exclusive feature that allows the driver to hold engine speed constant, ideal for long range rides and for maintaining a consistent speed while towing.
•    Bimini Top
•    Innovative stern lounge area with table mount, backrests, and stereo remote.
•    Premium Clarion® stereo with 4 speakers and MP3/USB inputs; remote control on stern
•    Reboarding ladders at the bow and stern
•    Snap-in marine grade carpet.
•    Adjustable captain’s chair with flip-up bolster.
•    Pull up cleats.
•    Includes painted trailer.

Yamaha 212SS: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Yamaha 212 series, comprising the 212X and 212SS models, presents a versatile platform designed primarily for performance water sports while maintaining family-friendly attributes. Both models share nearly identical specifications, differing mainly in cosmetic details. Measuring 21 feet 4 inches in length overall with an 8 feet 6 inches beam, these boats feature jet drives that contribute to a shallow draft of just 16 inches, enhancing their maneuverability and suitability for various water conditions.

Hull and Propulsion System

Beneath the waterline, the 212 series employs a deep V-hull design with dual lifting strakes that transition into a reverse chine, optimizing hydrodynamic efficiency and stability. The jet propulsion system is notable for its innovative thrust deflection mechanism: in neutral, the thrust is deflected, and at the first detent forward, the thrust remains slightly deflected downward to improve low-speed maneuverability. When fully engaged forward, the thrust aligns directly, maximizing propulsion efficiency. This configuration, with jet drives aligned flush with the transom rather than below the hull, results in minimal bow rise—approximately five degrees—during acceleration, preserving forward visibility.

Performance and Handling

Powered by twin 1812cc Yamaha four-stroke, four-cylinder marine engines, the 212 series delivers impressive performance metrics. At full throttle (7,650 RPM), the boat achieves a top speed of 56 miles per hour while consuming 25.1 gallons per hour, yielding a fuel efficiency of 2.23 miles per gallon and an estimated range of 100 miles with a 10% fuel reserve. Optimal cruising occurs at 5,000 RPM, where the boat travels at 27.2 miles per hour, burns 8.5 gallons per hour, and attains 3.19 miles per gallon, extending range to approximately 144 miles. Acceleration is particularly noteworthy, with the boat planing in just 2.2 seconds and reaching 30 miles per hour within 4 seconds. Handling characteristics include highly responsive steering with a lock-to-lock range of only three-quarters of a turn, enabling sharp, exhilarating turns. However, aggressive steering inputs can cause the boat to spin out rather than carve through turns, suggesting a need for moderated helm control during tight maneuvers.

Operational Features and Controls

The helm layout emphasizes ergonomic design and intuitive control placement. On the left side, dual ignition switches, a blower rocker switch, and circuit breakers are conveniently positioned. The upper dash panel houses three analog gauges—tachometers flanking a speedometer—with embedded digital displays providing up to 18 operational parameters. Additional switches and circuit breakers are located on the right side. Below the main panel, a stereo system is integrated directly at the helm, complemented by a 12-volt outlet, MP3 port, ballast tank rocker switch, and cruise/no-wake control. Engine controls are mounted at a comfortable 45-degree angle, facilitating ease of use from both seated and flip-up bolster positions. A courtesy light above the controls enhances visibility in low-light conditions. Visibility from the helm is well-considered, with approximately nine inches of unobstructed sightline above the windshield frame, which remains below the operator's eye level when seated or elevated on the bolster.

Engine and Maintenance

The twin Yamaha engines are purpose-built, computer-controlled, and digitally managed to ensure continuous performance optimization. Maintenance access is user-friendly, with oil and air filters readily reachable. Each engine drives a three-bladed stainless steel impeller through a 155-millimeter exhaust port, contributing to the boat's robust propulsion capabilities. Notably, the twin-engine configuration offers redundancy; in the event of an engine failure, the boat can maintain planing speeds of approximately 25 miles per hour on a single engine, providing a safety margin for returning to shore.

Conclusion

The Yamaha 212 series combines high-performance water sports capabilities with thoughtful design elements that enhance usability and comfort. Its shallow draft, powerful twin engines, and responsive handling make it a compelling choice for enthusiasts seeking exhilarating acceleration and maneuverability. Ergonomic helm controls and practical maintenance features further contribute to a well-rounded boating experience. Overall, the 212 series delivers performance and versatility typically found in larger vessels, making it a noteworthy option in the 21-foot sport boat category.
