I am about to put a deposit down on a 2022 FSH, but after reading some of the horror stories on the 21s, I had some questions:

- I live in Phoenix and we have 1 dealer here. Iffy reviews on Yelp. I called a few out of state dealers, and they are all singing the same tune. Guy i talked to seemed good, but I don't know what their allocation with Yamaha is like. Should I consider ordering out of state? Anyone from Texas here? I'd drive a day in any direction to pick the boat up...

- Does the deposit with the dealer ever turn into an actual order in MY NAME with Yamaha, or does it stay in the dealers name? Does size of deposit matter?

- Is an extended warranty available through Yamaha - because their warranty periods seem like a joke.

I would get ready for a long wait game regardless. I put my deposit down in April and was first on the list at my dealership for a 2022 252 FSH. However, I just heard from my dealer that Yamaha is pushing all unfulfilled 2021 model orders to 2022 models so even being first on the list doesn’t seem to help. FWIW, I asked my dealer about the amount of deposit when we put ours down and he said it’s $500 for everyone. With all that said, I’m still super excited about the boat and have been using the time to pick up all of the ancillary things I want/need for the boat like EPIRB, trolling motor & batteries, upgraded stereo components, etc. hope this helps!

I attempted to purchase from the dealer in Phoenix. I won’t recommend them to anyone. I ended up purchasing from Havasu Motorsports in Lake Havasu. Honest people and great customer service. Sales tax rate is also slightly lower than Phoenix.

I live in New Jersey and bought a 2021 from a dealer in New York(Cross Bay, LI - was great). Registering an out of state boat is a little different. The selling dealer gave me a Certificate of Origin not a title. I paid sales tax on the purchase in NJ (3% on an boat) not NY(I think 7%-8%). The process at DMV takes a little longer. I'd say I spent 45 min in the NJ DMV once I got in. In NJ it was a 3 week wait to get an appointment followed by 40 min on line when I got there. I scheduled the appointment before I picked up the boat. That reduced the wait time.

Purchasing in NJ the dealer takes care of all government paperwork for NJ residents. So it's how fast can you get from the dealer to the water after picking up the boat.

Doesn't look like it will be this year from what is being released already. Probably makes sense. Get the pipeline corrected and work out issues before a big model changeover. Next year is the smarter choice.

Spoke to a dealer this morning that said they had a 252FSH and two 19 ft FSH models in stock.

I ordered thru Havasu Motorsports in August of 2020 and they ended up canceling my order in April 2021 and said Yamaha couldn’t fill my order. They gave me my $2000 deposit it back and I don’t own a FSH

I placed a deposit on a 2022 FSH 195 deluxe At the Phoenix dealer in October.
It will more than likely be a 2023 if I can get it.
Fees tax and licence amount to approx 10% the cost of the boat.
The salesman was straight up, basically you get what you get, no choices on color or equipment at this time.
Cash purchase and they are aware of that.
I have a receipt that shows full cost of the boat.

Looking to be a first time jet boat owner by the end of February, early March. I put a deposit down on 22' 255 FSH over at Cycle Springs in Clearwater, Fl back in September. Already have new Skar speakers and skar amp lined up to replace the wet sounds system. Can't wait to join the ranks.

I am in Texas, Dallas area has one dealer. Phil Dill Boats, and they are above par on service and stand behind everything. Definitely get the YES warranty. If you need a contact at Phil Dill who will shoot you straight and be fair, give me a shout. Ive been dealing with them for the last 10 years and they really do a good job.
