2016 Lineup of boats - The real info will be posted at 7 PM EST on Saturday August 22nd

Alright.....I'm getting over anxious....someone please spill it already before I hold someone's boat hostage with a drill and a three inch hole bit...kidding*.... I've done a lot of shopping and I'm now at a standstill until I know what yamaha is doing for 2016.
 
@Morrowcat, you will know all about the 2016s at the same time that the dealers are learning about them. Surely you can make it another 52.5 hours.

But then you will have to wait at least a month for delivery!
 
@Bruce ....ever heard of the longest 52 hrs ever?!?....haha...haven't been this excited since waiting for my last car to come. Never imagined boat shopping would be "hard"

Hard. . . .trying buying your boat Jan 5th, and waiting until May for delivery. . . .that's hard. ; )

Thats easy, try ordering in May for November delivery, but in the mean time getting a message your boats in but the wrong model and colour :confused::arghh:

But in the end aren't you getting a 2016? Add some more wait!!
 
^^^true but at least you're boating this summer opposed to drooling on every boat going by...I just got the green light from the wife. I'm envious and living vicariously through the forum and you guys for now.
 
I just heard from my inside source at Yamaha, There WILL be boats in 2016! :winkingthumbsup"
 
I would wait to buy just yet if in the market.
 
My guys are on the ground there and have already seen one boat...

By the lines on it. . . . . 240X maybe. . . . Hmmmmm?
 
I'm pestering them to get some better pics but I guess the bar has already called their names....

Heard that the 212x does NOT have steering system on it :) The 190s do, and the AR190 has a new forward swept tower that supposedly looks great. Black and blue options on the 212X too. That's all for now.
