Saw this article today. Looks like Derek Jeter is a Yamaha jet boater.

Wonder if the Yamaha is the dingy to a big yacht?

I bet he's gonna have to eat noodles for a week now.

Nice 2015 212X, I am in good company!

Yes we know that question all to well @Andy S lol but this time it appears to be his actual boat at his Tampa House the dock at his place doesn't appear to be big enough to hold a yatch of size large enough for the 212 to be a dingy. I'm assuming the waterfront 32,000 sqft home has enough living space to not need a yatch there lol. The dock appears with the lifts it has to hold a few skis and 2 mid size boats.

The 2015 212X is a great boat.

I am more interested, however, in his 1990 Hannah Davis.

That's the boat he uses to get to his real boat

Who wants to bombard his home with JetBoaters footballs?

Looks like his pool is big enough to handle his 212. Maybe we should invite him to the forum and give him some mod tips. Bet we could teach him a noodle trick or two.

With his money, I probably would have gone with a Nautique G21 for a 21 foot boat. Just sayn =)

I'm sure he picked up the phone and said " hey, pick me up a small boat to toy around in here at the house" and this is just what his right hand man picked up for him. He probably has no idea about jet drive vs I/O, inboard, etc.

I'm not sure about that. I spent the second half of my boating vacation in a marina full of extremely wealthy boaters (my families 40" Sea Ray was the smallest there) and most of the people knew how to operate, clean and maintain their boat. Even a 240ft mega yacht had the owner driving around the tender (40ft center console) and he was perfect with it.

I wonder if the FBI was investigating this, if they would let him off.... I'm sure Mr. Jeter didn't have the intent to go into the restricted waters....

I heard they are about to start investigating this as they just had some man power free up. They will let us know what they find in a few months they are trying to get the approval now for several hundred thousand dollars and 100 agents to do the investigation as to what his intent was.

I'm digging the JetBoatPilot swim platform seat cushions on his transom.

Must be a Cycle Springs customer

I always knew he had good tastes

you're probably right. I like to think so anyways. If I were him, I would be hands on and know everything there is to know about my boats. Only use a driver when I wanted to chill and have no worries.
