We got lucky here in arizona we went down and decided to buy a 2021 sx190 a week later looked on the dealer web site and saw they had one that came in and wasn't sold so I called and did a $500 deposit on the c/card and a week later was towing it home
Got a call and they said Yamaha isn't going to build any more regular 212. All the ones they made are spoken for already. I'm going to see if they are doing anymore SX210?

It was from the dealer when they put the order in. This was a new order on 10/24 so I think you should be fine. I think it was just the base 212 that was the problem. I went with the SX195. They had some on order already so I'm hoping for the best.
Might not be the area to post this but since I was already in here......I took my 2021 sx195 for its maiden voyage today and I was wondering, does anyone else hear some type of annoying rattling type sound from their svho motor? I’d hope it’s nothing literally being brand new.
No I haven’t pulled them but it was right from when I started it right away. Sounds like the motor or something on the motor. Hope not. Probably turn the stereo up and forget out lol. Runs fine just a weird rattle but I’m ocd too.

They make a little rattle and chirp sound at idle especially if you have the engine hatch open. Part of it is the supercharger (chirp sound) and the rattle sound is just the nature of the 1.8 IMO. If you notice the engine will vibrate a good bit and it’s just normal. There are videos of YouTube where you can search for PWC and jetboat engine sounds. I think I still have one or two Yamaha videos set to public that have the sound you can hear when I did the intercooler swap. Don’t sweat it.
Skip towards the 10:30 mark of the video where I crank the engine to check for leaks...
