  • Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI): Electronically adjustable throttle bodies, throttle position sensor (TPS) and intake air pressure and air temperature sensors supply the optimum air/fuel mixture. The results are a smooth, high power output with low fuel consumption and low exhaust emissions.
  • SAWS (Scavenger Assist Wet Sump): Equipped with a high-performance, compact gas-liquid separator, this engine uses Yamaha's unique ultra compact lubrication system and the oil pan structure.
  • Yamaha Engine Management System (Y.E.M.S): An integrated, computerized management system that controls and adjusts such functions as ignition timing, fuel injection mapping and engine diagnostics.
  • Independent Water-jacketed Exhaust Manifolds with Collector: Achieves high power while keeping noise and exhaust heat under control.
  • Thermostatic and Pressure Controlled Cooling System: Water flow through the engine is controlled by a thermostat and pressure system and is maintained by a pressure control valve.
  • Corrosion Protection System: Sacrificial zinc anodes protect the engine from harmful galvanic corrosion. Stainless steel fasteners (nuts, bolts, hardware) provide a long service life. Cylinders, cases and heads are all treated with a durable oxide coating to form a barrier between corrosion and expensive engine parts.
  • Electronically Controlled, Variable Ignition Timing: For exact ignition advance control at all throttle positions and RPMs.

    The Jet Pump Propulsion System


  • The SX240 High Output twin 155mm hyper-flow jet pump propulsion system with three-blade stainless steel impeller: Designed to maximize water flow for high performance. The twin pump configuration provides excellent hook-up and smooth acceleration.
  • Pumps are Manufactured with YDC30: A combination of zinc and copper alloys, developed by Yamaha marine engineers, that offers excellent corrosion protection.
  • Stainless Steel Impeller Housing Liner: For high durability, the liner maintains accurate clearance tolerances between the impeller and the housing.
  • High Flow Intake Duct and Grate: The dynamic shape of these items directs water flow into the pump for better thrust, performance and hook-up.
  • Cooling Water Intake Filter: Filters out harmful debris that could cause blockage of important cooling water passages.
  • Jet Pump Clean-out Plugs with Push Button: Allows for direct access to the inlet duct cavity to easily clear any debris from the pumps from inside the boat.

    The Hull and Deck


  • The SX240 High Output utilizes a deep-V, multi-chine hull with 20-degree dead rise. The hull and deck are constructed of multiple layers of fiberglass with sandwich core construction reinforcements.
  • The fiberglass liner, which is separately constructed, represents a revolution in boat design, combining the floor, stringer, and engine mounting system. It is constructed from a custom blended polyester resin with engineered fiberglass laminates and 3/8" 6061-T6 aluminum plate for the engine mounts. The liner is bonded into the hull with polyurethane adhesive and then injected with foam to provide maximum floatation as well as longitudinal and lateral structural rigidity. The deck is then fastened to the hull with both mechanical fasteners and polyurethane adhesive giving this revolutionary semi-monocoque fiberglass structure unsurpassed strength and rigidity.

Yamaha SX240 HO: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Yamaha SX240 is a 23-foot, 6-inch runabout powered by twin jet drives, reflecting Yamaha's 25 years of jet drive technology development. Designed for trailerability and shallow water operation, this model features a dry weight of 3,298 pounds, a beam of 8 feet, 6 inches, and a draft of just 16 inches. It carries 50 gallons of fuel and is equipped with twin 1.8-liter four-cylinder, four-stroke, electronically fuel-injected marine engines purpose-built by Yamaha.

Exterior Design and Jet Drive System

The SX240's transom is notable for its absence of traditional outdrives and propellers, replaced instead by twin jet pump units directly driven by the engines. Water intake occurs through port and starboard intake grates, with control buckets that vector thrust for forward, reverse, and steering maneuvers. This jet propulsion system offers several advantages, including a very shallow draft and no exposed propellers, enhancing safety and allowing Yamaha to position the reboarding ladder centrally on the swim platform for convenience. The hull incorporates two full-length lifting strakes and a slight reverse chine leading to a 20-degree dead rise at the transom. Additionally, clean-out ports provide easy access for clearing debris from the jet pump intakes, and safety features include cut-off switches that prevent engine start or shut down the engines if panels are opened.

Performance and Handling

During testing with two people aboard and half a tank of fuel, the SX240 achieved a top speed of 52.2 miles per hour at 7,550 RPM, consuming 22.2 gallons per hour, which translates to a range of approximately 105 statute miles with a 10% fuel reserve. The most efficient cruise speed was 37.5 miles per hour at 6,000 RPM, burning 11.05 gallons per hour and extending the range to 153 miles. Acceleration is immediate and smooth, with a 0 to 30 miles per hour time of 4.3 seconds and a quick planing time of 2.6 seconds. The boat exhibits solid and responsive handling, maintaining control even in rough chop and high-speed turns, aided by the jet pump's water suction that effectively 'glues' the boat to the water surface. Bow rise peaks quickly at 18 degrees before settling, contributing to a confident ride.

Operational Features and Maneuverability

Yamaha has integrated user-friendly features such as cruise assist and no-wake modes, controlled via a rocker switch on the helm. This allows for precise low-speed adjustments in the marina with three selectable speed settings, and once underway, cruise assist enables incremental speed changes without moving the throttles. The jet drive's smooth reverse gate operation offers a seamless transition between forward and reverse, contrasting with the more abrupt shifting of traditional transmissions. Despite common misconceptions about jet boats, the SX240 provides excellent control and maneuverability, making docking and close-quarters handling straightforward for operators with some experience.

Conclusion

The Yamaha SX240HL runabout delivers a distinctive jet-driven boating experience characterized by shallow draft capability, responsive handling, and smooth, instant acceleration. Its thoughtful design elements, including safety features and operational aids, complement its performance credentials, making it a compelling option for those seeking a versatile and trailerable jet boat. The SX240 balances innovation with practical usability, providing confident control in a variety of conditions.
