Yamaha SX240: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Boat Test Review on BoatTest.com

Overview

The Yamaha SX240 is a 23-foot 6-inch jet boat designed for versatile recreational use. With a beam of 8 feet 6 inches and a shallow draft of just 16 inches, it offers a lightweight and nimble platform weighing 3,298 pounds dry. Its fuel capacity of 50.2 gallons supports extended outings. Powered by twin high-output 1812cc 4-cylinder, 4-stroke Yamaha marine engines, the SX240 delivers strong performance and efficient cruising capabilities.

Power and Performance

During testing, the Yamaha SX240 achieved a top speed of 51.4 miles per hour at 7,550 RPM, consuming 23.2 gallons per hour and yielding a fuel economy of 2.2 miles per gallon, which translates to a range of approximately 100 miles at full throttle. For cruising, two optimal settings were identified: at 6,000 RPM, the boat reached 37.4 miles per hour while burning 11.5 gallons per hour, and at 5,550 RPM, it cruised at 31.7 miles per hour with a fuel burn of 9.8 gallons per hour. Both cruising modes provided an efficient 3.2 miles per gallon and an extended range of 147 miles. The SX240 planes quickly, reaching planing speed in just 2.5 seconds and accelerating to 30 miles per hour in 4.2 seconds. Notably, the boat’s jet propulsion system, free of external running gear such as props or rudders, offers excellent handling and tight turning capability without the tendency to slide or spin out. The boat exhibits a 12-degree bow rise during acceleration, but the design maintains excellent forward visibility from both seated and bolstered positions.

Exterior Design and Deck Features

Yamaha has optimized the bow seating area with versatile cushion arrangements that allow for customizable seating configurations. The walk-through windshield includes a hatch that can be opened and secured to block wind, providing comfort during cooler conditions. On the port side, a spacious compartment serves as ample storage or a potential changing room, with room to accommodate a portable toilet. The starboard side compartment is somewhat limited due to steering cable placement. The transom features a low-profile design enabled by the jet drive engines, creating a spacious patio area with seating and a base suitable for a table, ideal for social gatherings. The low transom height facilitates easy gear loading and water access. Additionally, the self-draining cockpit system directs water overboard rather than into the bilge, enhancing safety and convenience.

Helm and Controls

The helm station is designed with simplicity and functionality in mind. It features an uncluttered layout with rocker switches paired directly with circuit breakers for easy troubleshooting. Instrumentation includes a speedometer flanked by two multifunction smart tachometers capable of displaying various engine parameters. Engine controls are mounted at a 45-degree angle, which is comfortable when seated but can feel awkward when standing on the flip-up bolster, requiring some adjustment in hand positioning. However, this is mitigated by the inclusion of no-wake mode and cruise assist features, which allow for incremental speed adjustments via buttons without manual throttle modulation. The captain’s seat is a wrap-around design with swivel and fore-aft movement, including a flip-up bolster for enhanced visibility. The port side seat converts easily from forward-facing to an aft-facing lounger, transforming the cockpit into a social area accommodating up to seven people.

Engine Access and Maintenance

The engine compartment is easily accessible, facilitating routine maintenance and inspection. The jet drive units are designed for straightforward clearing of debris, an important feature given the potential for clogging in jet propulsion systems. The self-draining cockpit design ensures water is expelled directly overboard, preventing accumulation in the bilge and enhancing overall vessel safety.

Conclusion

The Yamaha SX240 combines efficient twin jet propulsion with thoughtful design features that enhance comfort, handling, and usability. Its rapid acceleration, responsive handling, and versatile seating arrangements make it well-suited for both spirited boating and relaxed cruising. The integration of no-wake and cruise assist modes adds to the ease of operation, while the low-profile transom and self-draining cockpit demonstrate attention to practical details. Overall, the SX240 presents a compelling option for boaters seeking a nimble, comfortable, and well-equipped jet boat.
