Wouldn't it be cool if Yamaha makes a 30 footer jetboat

Something to keep in mind: After you get longer than 26', a new set of rules come into play as far as what is required of the craft under USCG regs. Safety equipment required is different, and with that an increased cost. With increased cost, most people expect more 'creature comforts' and features. So there is usually a big jump in cost and price after you get above 26'...

That is why they will NEVER make one larger than 26', it would be a very bad idea to start competing with real fishing and cruising boats propelled by their motors, too.

Even 26' is a bit questionable, as they would basically have to use two SVHOs. Price, fuel? - I would look at different brands for sure.
