Boating Magazine JUST posted a video for the 2021 255XD and 212XD on YouTube .......They have the DRIVE paddles from 275, single-lever driving capability, 12” connect instead of the 7” and the graphic in the beginning SAYS DUAL SVHO Engines!!!! (Although he never mentions the engines???????)

Here is a bootleg copy of the Video before being moved private:


Here is a picture of the 255XD someone grabbed before the videos were moved to private:

I watched the video on my TV, and posted on my Ipad.......your welcome :)

Someone screwed up at Boating Magazine......so shhhhhhh:)

Interesting Yamaha decided to match Scarab at 255......
 
Well now they are private LOL. Glad I saw this when I did, have to save some pennies now!
 
Looks like they're pulling the videos as fast as they can put them up.

I was able to watch the 212XD video. Guess I'll have to wait a day or two to watch the rest.
 
And just like that poof....they are gone :)

Just what we wanted to know though:

New 255XD with DRIVE and SVHO Engines......

Now we just need to see the pricing......ugh

Well I feel fortunate that I happened to be doing nothing today and saw the 212XD and 255XD videos......and yes it was beautiful [flag]

I don't know about youall, but after seeing those boats and figuring the price tags, I am just going to go home at the end of the day and hug my AR210.
 
Saw the 255XD video and it mentioned controlling Surfpointe from the display?

Or we could go halveses and have a timeshare on that 255XD (neither of us can use it every weekend anyway) [flag]
 
Saw that as well,

Saw that as well. Can't wait till tomorrow to get full details. Pricing is probably going to be at least 10k more
 
Yea. Had I not just bought my 210FSH Sport I know I’d get the new 255FSH. BUT, it only is a few minor updates/upgrades. And the added cost and fuel consumption isn’t worth it to me right now.
But I’ll Be keeping an eye on it. ☺️
 
255 xd surf boat? Tell me more!
