The Yamaha VX™ Series will go down in history as the most important watercraft ever brought to market. With combined sales that dwarf all other models by all other brands, the VX™ Series attracts more first-time buyers to the sport of PWC riding than all others and is directly responsible for current market growth.  

Returning to the Yamaha WaveRunner® line in 2012 are the VX Cruiser™, VX® Deluxe, and the VX® Sport. Each model is renowned for its fit and finish, reliability and low cost of ownership.  But most of all, the VX™ Series delivers the most fun you can have on a personal watercraft priced under $9,000.

Much of the attraction of the VX™ Series is that each models looks and feels like a much more expensive watercraft.  This year the VX™ line looks even better with the addition of new metallic paint schemes that have been reserved for Yamaha flagship models.  Yamaha is the only company today with the manufacturing capabilities to offer metallic paint.

Big Things Do Come in Small Packages
The VX™ Series deck integrates the look and feel of Yamaha luxury watercraft by creating a roomy cockpit for the operator. To do that, the VX™ models feature a long seat design to provide more legroom for taller riders. The overall effect is not only more comfortable for the operator, but it also gives the VX™ Series a striking profile that mirrors Yamaha’s more expensive FX® line.

Completing the cockpit are mirrors, a convenient glove box, and a large reverse lever. For passengers, the seat of the three-person VX™ Series also features a large bolster for added comfort when riding with two or three people and the thickly-padded reboarding platform is the widest in its class.  New for the VX Deluxe this year is an upgraded stitched seat and the addition of a reboarding step for added comfort, enhanced styling, and rider convenience.
