2026 Yamaha Boats 222XE

The 2026 Yamaha 222XE is a 22-foot jet boat built for both high-energy watersports and relaxed entertaining. Powered by a single 1898cc engine running on regular unleaded fuel with a 70-gallon tank capacity, the boat features drive-by-wire technology, an integrated ballast system with electric wake booster, and an articulating keel system. A 12.3-inch Connext touchscreen with mapping, dual wireless charging points, and Yamaha E-Series features round out the technical package.

The layout combines versatile seating and storage throughout. The cockpit offers a tilt-adjustable steering wheel, an adjustable captain's chair with flip-up bolster, and a passenger-side captain's chair. The bow includes a walk-through door, filler inserts for flexible seating configurations, hinged seat cushions, and dedicated locker space for skiing equipment and anchor gear. A removable dinette table with pedestal mounts works in both the cockpit and stern, while a lockable glove box and integrated cooler provide convenient storage.

The stern features an integrated swim platform with upholstered seats, cushioned backrests with storage, a stainless steel telescopic reboarding ladder, and wet storage. Seven cabin speakers, two tower speakers, and a two-speaker stern stereo system provide audio throughout. Lighting includes docking lights, courtesy deck and tower lighting, and LED accent lighting. An 8-foot beam accommodates the boat's efficient layout, while an aluminum wakeboard tower with tow hook, stainless steel bow rails, and six pop-up cleats support the watersports mission.

Exterior features include a Bimini top, stainless steel hardware, and a Yamaha wake-enhancing hull. The boat comes with a painted trailer featuring a swing-away tongue, spare tire, and mount. Rack and pinion steering, no-wake mode control, and cruise assist enhance ease of operation across various conditions.
