2018 Yamaha Boats SX240

This 2018 Yamaha SX240 is a 24-foot jet boat built on a fiberglass hull with twin Yamaha engines. The jet propulsion system draws water through internal housings and expels it with high thrust, allowing the boat to plane quickly with minimal bow rise and shallow draft—useful for navigating sheltered waters and tight spaces.

The design prioritizes usable space: the absence of an external drivetrain and engine hatch opens up a generous swim platform at the stern where passengers can gather near the water. The boat reaches a top speed of 52 knots and is noted for fuel efficiency relative to conventional outboard or inboard setups.

With its combination of responsive handling, compact footprint, and practical layout, the SX240 suits families and groups looking for an accessible day boat with the maneuverability that jet propulsion provides.
