FX Cruiser SHO

The FX Cruiser SHO is the industry’s best-selling luxury performance PWC and the flagship of Yamaha’s FX® line. The unmatched performance of the Super High Output engine, the history-making ergonomics of Yamaha’s exclusive Cruiser® seat, the breakthrough nano-engineering, and the luxury convenience features make the FX Cruiser® SHO the absolute best touring watercraft on the water ever.

  • Supercharged 1.8L Yamaha Super High Output marine engine.
  • Yamaha exclusive Cruiser® seat for ultra comfort for passengers and driver.
  • Instrumentation includes industry’s only fuel flow meter.
  • Yamaha exclusive pull-up cleats.
  • Available in Dark Blue or Carbon.
Details

Highlights: 

  • Hull and deck design that’s long, stable and comfortable.
  • Maximized comfort for driver and passengers.
  • “Theater” seating for Cruiser® models.
  • Mechanical neutral for starting in place.
  • “Command link” instrumentation buttons on dash.
  • Fast access stern storage area for wet items and tow ropes.
  • Large stern reboarding area.

  

The FX® models offer the longest, most comfortable seats today when riding with multiple passengers without any compromises to performance and handling when riding solo.

Adding to the comfort of the premium two-piece seat is an additional bolster support to provide more comfort for the second passenger. Watertight storage is available under the rear section of the seat. Combined with the watertight helm storage, FX models feature two watertight storage areas.

But that is only the beginning. The FX® Series features a number of industry leading innovations that include an easy to use mechanical neutral, command link instrumentation buttons on the dash, and a fast access wet storage compartment located at the stern of the craft.  These features are exclusive to Yamaha and the FX® Series.

 

NanoXcel® Hulls and Decks

The styling of the FX® Series is a combination of symmetry, balance and sleek flow made possible by Yamaha’s exclusive closed molded process.

This process creates smooth, exact parts every time. There are no ribs or structural inconsistencies that show through the finished product.

All FX models feature Yamaha’s exclusive NanoXcel hull, deck, and liner material that significantly reduces overall weight, increases strength, and improves fuel economy.

In addition to the longer deck, the hull features a full keel for excellent straight-line tracking and comes with full-length outside chines for better stability in turns, particularly with multiple riders onboard.

At the stern of the craft is a large, deep reboarding step with multiple grab handles added. The FX® line sports the industry’s first and only stern wet storage compartment just below the tow eye. There is no need to unhook the towline when taking a break from towing and there is now a convenient place to store the line.

Unrivaled Driver Experience with Enhanced Cockpit Ergonomics

The 2013 FX® Series features a true neutral gear that is mechanical and enables the watercraft to be started in neutral to stay motionless in the water with the engine running. Integrated into the reverse handle, this system offers added control when docking and loading on a trailer.

The dash of the FX® Series includes multifunction instrumentation controls and mode buttons in easy-to-reach locations. Added to the cockpit is a spacious glove box for smaller items and watertight storage for cellphones, keys, and wallets, along with tilt steering and Yamaha’s exclusive Quick Shift Trim System, which can easily adjust the trim angle of the jet nozzle.

The Yamaha SHO and HO Marine Engine 

The heart of the Yamaha FX® Series is the Yamaha 1.8L marine engine that is the largest displacement motor in the industry. The Yamaha SHO models feature the 1.8-liter Yamaha Super High Output marine engine with a supercharger and intercooler for increased performance.

The Yamaha HO models feature the Yamaha High Output version that is naturally-aspirated for added fuel economy.  

Engine features include:

  • Cruise Assist™, Yamaha’s exclusive feature that reduces throttle fatigue, improves towing capability, and can extend the range of touring.
  • Yamaha’s No Wake Mode™, which sets the engine to optimum no wake speed, is especially convenient for marinas and long no wake zones.
  • Yamaha’s exclusive remote transmitter security system and Low RPM Mode™, which can reduce fuel consumption by up to 26%.
  • Open loop cooling for best performance, reliability and low maintenance.
  • Throttle by wire reverse system controls RPM in reverse gear for maximum thrust efficiency.

All of the FX® Series models are optimized to operate using regular unleaded fuel.

Overview

The Yamaha FX-SHO series is a high-performance personal watercraft platform featuring two closely related models: the FX Cruiser-SHO and the FX-SHO. Both models share the same hull and engine platform but differ in key features and design elements. The watercraft measures 140.2 inches in length overall, with a beam and height of 48.4 inches. Dry weight is approximately 851 to 853 pounds depending on the model. Powered by an 1812 cc supercharged, intercooled four-stroke four-cylinder marine engine, these vehicles are tuned to run efficiently on regular 87 octane unleaded gasoline.

Exterior Design and Features

The FX-SHO series has undergone a complete redesign of the forward section, presenting a flatter, more aggressive profile. The front is equipped with a familiar bumper system, low-profile rub rails, and large wing mirrors positioned outward for enhanced rear visibility. The forward storage compartment is gasketed and water-resistant, providing secure space for valuables. Fueling is facilitated via a starboard-side inlet connected to an 18.5-gallon fuel tank. Total storage capacity across the watercraft is 33.2 gallons, with the majority located in the forward compartment and additional storage beneath the seat and in the stern area. The hull is constructed from Nano XL, a lightweight material molded with a closed mold process to ensure precision and consistency. Redesigned sponsons measuring 24 by 5 inches contribute to the craft's stability and sharp turning capabilities.

Console and Controls

The console layout differentiates the FX Cruiser-SHO from the FX-SHO primarily through instrumentation. The Cruiser-SHO features a large central analog gauge displaying either RPM or speed, flanked by two multifunction digital displays configurable for various metrics including fuel consumption, speed, and compass headings. The FX-SHO has a simpler setup with one multifunction display. Both models incorporate electronic key systems allowing for locking and operational mode restrictions, including a low-speed mode for novice riders. Handlebar controls are ergonomically designed, with throttle, no-wake mode, cruise assist, trim adjustment, and reverse gate controls all within easy reach. The handlebars are adjustable to accommodate different riding postures. Additional conveniences include multiple dry storage compartments and cup holders integrated into the console and under the handlebars.

Seating and Passenger Accommodation

The FX Cruiser-SHO is equipped with Yamaha's three-tier 'stadium seating,' which provides a scalloped, comfortable ride for multiple passengers. In contrast, the FX-SHO features a sportier, more aggressive seat design aimed at riders seeking a performance-oriented experience. Both models provide comfortable seating for an observer, positioned aft with grab handles and a dedicated tow rope connection point, supporting towing activities such as watersports.

Engine Access and Maintenance

Beneath the primary seat lies the robust 1812 cc supercharged and intercooled four-cylinder engine. The design allows ample space around the engine for easy maintenance access. Key service points such as the oil dipstick, air filter, and oil filter are conveniently located for straightforward inspection and replacement. An engine flush system is integrated into the stern storage area, facilitating easy cleaning after saltwater or freshwater use. Additionally, the tow line can be stored securely while connected, enhancing operational convenience.

Performance and Handling

Testing revealed a top speed of 66.7 miles per hour at 7,500 rpm, with a fuel consumption rate of 19.2 gallons per hour, yielding approximately 3.47 miles per gallon and a maximum range of 58 statute miles. Typical cruising was found to be most efficient at 4,500 rpm, delivering an average speed of 30.1 miles per hour while consuming 5.1 gallons per hour, which translates to nearly 6 miles per gallon and an extended range of 99 statute miles. Acceleration from 0 to 30 miles per hour averaged 1.7 seconds. The redesigned reverse gate system demonstrated excellent maneuverability, allowing precise control in forward, neutral, and reverse modes with a simple lever and latch mechanism.

Conclusion

The Yamaha FX-SHO series offers a well-engineered, high-performance personal watercraft platform with thoughtful design enhancements focused on rider comfort, convenience, and control. The combination of advanced materials, ergonomic controls, and a powerful yet efficient engine makes these models suitable for both aggressive riders and those seeking a more comfortable cruising experience. The detailed testing confirms the watercraft's capabilities in speed, handling, and fuel efficiency, supported by practical features that enhance usability and maintenance.
