Would you mind elaborating.

@mayorplant Sorry to hear that. Was the color teal? My dealer told me earlier this week that they were canceling FSH models with teal because Yamaha was having difficulty acquiring the color.

Yamaha told my dealer they can’t fill the order that I had a deposit on since 8/12 so they’re giving me my money back

Sorry to hear that. This is very scary news for all those still out there with deposits down...

Just saying, got a really nice 2018 212X for sale.....

It sucks to hear that the boats are being held, or not going to be delivered at all. Fun times we live in.

Just sold my boat pit money down on 212SD. I then joined this and I’m sick to my stomach reading through these threads. I was told by the dealer it would be here by Feb/Mar at latest.

Yamaha should consider giving discounts on boats and or accessories on 2022/23 models for those people who's orders are being canceled and might still be interested.

Everyone just step back and take a deep breath and see how things shake out. There are dealers around who also have a bit of inventory in stock as some have mentioned. Although it may be far away it could still be worth the trip. Hopefully everything will work itself out.

2021 YAMAHA 210 FSH SPORT - Inventory - River Valley Marine

here is one available. I was getting ready to go make the trip when mine came in. There are several in stock around the US, just literally have to check every dealer. I found 195 fsh in NC as well but they never call me back. Glad mine came in and was able to close on the deal last week and didn't have to travel all over to pick up. They did say there were close to 4000 boats back ordered at Yamaha and the dealer alone had over 40 they couldn't get in.

I was hesitant to go with the teal to begin with. I think the beige interior would get to hot in the sun. The 195 or 210 fsh deluxe white with cool interior is the way to go in my opinion and then add the T-Top

4000 boats on backorder? That's crazy to think when you consider Yamaha typically only makes 6000-7000 boats per year.

I’m pretty sure those are not real. Dealer clickbait.

what I have found is almost all the 2021 ads stating they have the boat is to get you to call and then they offer to put one on order for you.

Anything with just the generic picture dont bother. unless they have pics of it on the floor or a video, just assume its a click trap

 

[Shir9406]

Ok.. so the dealer must be a little color blind... my boat is not here ... smh.. he said the paperwork said the boat that came in was blue, but in fact , was grey.... and they just noticed when they were prepping it lol.. so I’m still waiting... not the phone call I wanted to have ..

 

[HangOutdoors]

@Rhyder I would somewhat disagree with that blanket statement. My dealer as of last week had boats in inventory, but only had generic pictures on line. Since it is the winter here, they keep the boats wrapped and in storage. The showrooms only are open very rarely and doesn't have any boats on display since they don't last long anyhow and in these Covid Times usually just for delivery and closings. Whether or not he still has boats available is another story. He posted here just a short time ago.

The only way to determine if a dealer actually has a boat is to reach out to them and ask if they have one in inventory and available. I am sure that a lot don't but assuming that all do not because of a picture is probably not a great way to boat shop either. There is no doubt that if someone really wants a boat, you will have to pick up the phone and make the calls all over the place, it is going to take some effort.

I would put the credit card on table in front of me and start dialing till I found one in stock or on in incoming manifest that is in transit and pull the trigger and give a decent deposit.

@Shir9406 Wow, talk about a roller coaster there. Sorry to hear that.
