2026 Yamaha Boats 222XE

The 222XE is a 22-foot watersports boat built for both action and relaxation. Its dual-purpose design transitions seamlessly from towing activities like wakeboarding and tubing to calm cruising and entertaining. A single 1898cc gasoline engine powers the boat, paired with Yamaha's drive-by-wire technology and articulating keel system for responsive handling. The fuel tank holds 70 gallons of regular unleaded gasoline.

The cockpit centers on an adjustable captain's chair with flip-up bolster alongside a passenger-side captain's chair. Tilt steering with an upgraded wheel and dual battery setup support extended use. Forward, the bow features a walk-through door, filler inserts for flexible seating, removable dinette table with pedestal mounts, and a dedicated locker for anchoring gear. An integrated cooler, glove box, and marine-grade snap-in mats complete the functional layout.

The stern includes an integrated swim platform with reboarding ladder and upholstered seating with storage-backed rests. A second removable dinette table mounts at the stern, and wet storage sits nearby. Docking and courtesy lighting throughout the boat, plus LED accent touches, support evening use. Seven marine speakers with two tower speakers and stern stereo remote provide entertainment.

Yamaha's integrated ballast system and electric wakeBooster enhance water features, while cruise assist and a three-position no-wake mode aid handling. The 12.3-inch Connext touchscreen with integrated maps drives navigation and engine control. Two wireless charging points keep devices powered. Exterior details include stainless steel bow rails, six pop-up cleats, a Bimini top, and an aluminum folding wakeboard tower. The boat includes a painted trailer with swing-away tongue and spare tire.
