Pursuit makes them too and for our market. Hidden Yamaha's too in the one that I've seen was a 40' package. A beautifully expensive package!
 
I keep looking at the japan international show and don't see anything that seems 26' and jet.
A few outboard boats.
And this:

But i think this may be outboard too.
 
Yes it's outboard as well (look close at the 2nd pic you can see the engine cowl). It's also shown in the video I posted above. I like some of the styling cues from their Japan boats, minus the "bloated/porpoise look" in some areas of their design/aesthetic. Overall they look head and shoulders over the jet boats and I'm sure their price reflects it heh. If they would use the deep hull (from boat above) for the next gen jet boats that would be nice and could totally see them design something for next true, ground-up redesign.

Theses are all nice looking "Yamaha's" / Exult....

Im thinking a cabin cruiser with twin super charged jet engines for slow and gentle cruising. Then a small lite weight gas turbine when u need to get gone.! Like the military uses... that would get good gas mileage... right?
 
You can see an outboard engine hood just slightly visible on the back of that boat
 
how did cobrakidd call this so long again, joined, posted twice in the same thread and hasn't signed in since two days later ??
 
Seems like a lot of wasted space. I was hoping for something like a streched 24' with more interior room. Those rear lounges really don't seem to be worth the added cost and loss of efficiency.
 
Yamaha provided the marketing images which Julian and I both have posted.

Yamaha provided many images and we both picked our favorites of the duplicates so you may find some differences in our posts.

We also are uploading videos which will be found in 2019 Model Year Information

Here are the threads;

I will be at the Miami show on Saturday and will check it out for sure. I think those side windows are rather ugly. The nice thing is you can tell Yamaha stuff like that at the show and they take it all into account. 100k -130k, I rather by a new 27' foot center console at that price range. Much more sea capable. I guess 100k is not too bad compared to the models below but still. I wonder if they will have one to demo in the water?
