I put a deposit down August 2021. Dealer placed the order along with all his other allotment Sept 2021. 252SD.What are the vital details? When did you order?
Walked in to the dealer early April and they had allocation for a 2022 212s available. I put a deposit on it and I got the call it was ready May 5th! I have had it 3 weeks doing lighting and stereo upgrades.
I got the Grey with green bottom and gray tower. I will post up some photos when the rain lets up...massive flooding and rain here lately. Glad I have a lighted and heated/cooled storage facility for the boat to work on in.Congratulations!!!
That's the same model we're waiting on. Deposit was placed in October 2021. What color did you get? And, feel free to post copious amounts of photos.
I was told the same from my dealer. He said they put in a request for a certain number of boats but Yamaha allocates what they want. It’s a set amount for the full year and they can’t order boats one-off.My question to my dealer:Not that this makes any difference but I have been having a discussion with some other individuals who are also waiting on a boat from other dealerships. The question came up as to when a boat is ordered from Yamaha. Is the boat ordered along with all of the other boats allocated for a given year, or are the boats ordered individually when the dealer actually has a buyer for the allocation? Also just wondering if there is any order of priority for the dealers from Yamaha.
Dealer Answer:The boats are ordered all at the same time in August. I cannot speak on priority of dealers. Just thought everyone would like to know this bit of information.
I guess that explains why there seems to be very little coorelation between when and individual puts a deposit down and when they receive their boat.I was told the same from my dealer.

Who is your dealer?I put a deposit down on a black AR250 the second week of May. My dealership let me know yesterday they should be getting the delivery invoice today. So I should be picking up around the end of the month. Maybe just lucky timing for me.
Blackbeard marineWho is your dealer?
I checked with Phil Dill and they told me the boats they have are all sold. They also told me that since I am out of their area, Porter ,TX in Houston they would not sell to me and I would have to go through one of the dealers here.Looking today, Phil Dill boats in Lewisville has one in stock also.
How did you get word that Texas Marine got some in? Were they FSH 255s?Sorry to hear that, Texas Marine just got some as well, but they may be sold as well.
I was on a wait list for an AR250 with Texas Marine Conroe also. They called me Tuesday about a seaglass AR250. I don't know anything about any center console boats though, sorry.How did you get word that Texas Marine got some in? Were they FSH 255s?
