What are the differences between 2012, 2013, 2014 & 2015 212x?

Besides the colors and cosmetics what are the differences between these years for 212x? Also does anyone know HP #s? I looked but couldn't find it.

Thank you.

Yamaha stopped publishing the HP of the 24' models.....that said, the XLS at this link should provide you some info....

212x is 320hp from my memory....

Hp is around 360. Other than that only difference is trim, graphics, colors, and newer ones have rear swim deck speakers.

Had to look it up since @jawsf16 and I gave you different numbers. HP is 320....boat has the standard MR1 HO engines.

I downloaded 2013 Yamaha boat brochure and it shows that All 24', 212x & 212ss come with same engine, Twin 1.8 Liter High Output. Do all these have 320HP?

@Julian That video is for a 2008 212x which was 320 hp. The boat changed in 2012 and dropped in the same motors as the 240s, 360 hp. 2011 did not have a US model. 2008-2010 are 320 hp. 2012 and newer are 360 hp.

@jawsf16 I think you are right because I noticed pre 2012 have different engines.

Awesome....good to know. I will have to update the xls now I have that info!

Can you post the link where you found the 2013 brochure or upload it? I have searched but could not find it. Thanks.
