I still feel there should be some sort of TOTALLY SIGNIFICANT (Can we say "AWESOME" at this point) AWARD (ie, Prize) added by all of the moderators for the winning guess ?

Ideas that come to mind are;
A) A complete Perfect Pass system
B) A complete "PBP Edition" for your Yamaha from JetBoatPilot
C) A really neat Wake Board and rope
D) YOUR choice of any BigMac or Whopper you chose


Of course, being the flexible boaters and members we are, we would gladly accept whatever the moderators put together. For example, a complete "Gift Package" which includes ALL of the choices.

Awaiting the Grand Announcement by y'all .......

If you look closely at the pic above you can see the reflection of the center console.

Thanks, now I'm staring at it like one of those 3d pictures looking for the reflection,

I guess the fishing lure top left isn't a big enough hint,

I, in some way and not that I could afford it right now, hope it is a boat that Yamaha has done some market research on. I think this would fit the bill here in the states and would be a great seller. I am probably way off base but I love the layout of this boat. Look at the impression 2 video for the interior.

maybe it's not a jet boat, the links above are for outboards, maybe Yamaha is bringing their outboard hulls into the market

It can't be the 310 since that is not for every kind of boater and it isn't really a fishing boat. I also think the $150K for the 310 would not go over great for every boater.

a pontoon option should be added to the list since that seems to be a bit of the rage right now. I don't think it is what is in store this year but Yamaha shouldn't miss this segment. If Yamaha offered one, there may be people here that would jump at it. I would consider it if I had a dock

Was trolling the web for any news about the announcement at the Miami Boat show and came across this link http://miamiboatshow.com/shared-static/pages/news/news.aspx?id=19634 that has Yamaha announcing their new product labeled Yamaha FSH New Product Reveal. Not sure what FSH stands for but seems like fish but we kinda already know that...

Wouldn't be a pontoon I would think either. Just like the G3, Suncatcher which is G3 is already an option.

Yamaha Marine Division already offers an extensive lineup in Pontoons with their G3 product line.
See all of their offerings here: http://www.g3boats.com/
The pontoons go by the
Suncatcher name. They offer possibly 30+ models.
See all of them here: http://www.suncatcherpontoons.com/
I have 2 close friends who own SunCatchers. VERY nicely done. They may not be in same category as Bennington, Premier or the Harris CROWNE line, but they can be extremely well-equipped.
Best Wishes to all, Mikey Lulejian - Lake Oconee, GA
