2026 Yamaha Boats 255XD

The 2026 Yamaha 255XD is a 24.5-foot fiberglass jet boat powered by twin Yamaha engines producing 500 horsepower combined. Built around DRiVE® X technology, the boat excels at wakesurf performance and pairs its capable power plant with a modern, clean aesthetic. Twin 1812cc displacement engines run on premium unleaded fuel and feature high-pressure 160mm pumps with drive-by-wire control.

The cockpit centers on a 12.3-inch Helm Connext multifunction display with integrated mapping and navigational features. Seating spans an adjustable captain's chair with flip-up bolster, a passenger-side captain's chair, and a portside entertainment area with filler inserts that enable multiple seating configurations. The removable dinette table with pedestal mount can be positioned at the stern; hinged seat cushions and upholstered backrests provide comfort throughout. Tilt steering, an upgraded steering wheel, and blue LED-lit helm switch panels complete the command center.

Below deck, an enclosed head compartment with wardrobe storage and a galley with stow-in-place table serve the boat's interior. Courtesy deck, tower, and docking lights, along with LED accent lighting, illuminate the spaces. A 12.3-inch multifunction display, wireless charging points, and a premium seven-speaker Hertz audio system with two additional tower speakers, stern stereo remote, and stern speakers handle entertainment and onboard technology. The integrated swim platform features a stainless steel telescopic reboarding ladder, while a walk-through bow door accesses a dedicated anchor and rope locker.

Wakesurf features include an integrated electric wakebooster, adjustable ballast system, and integrated wake plate with toe-in jet nozzle positioning. A folding aluminum wakeboard tower with tow hook mounts wakeboard racks. Exterior hardware includes seven stainless steel pop-up cleats, a tow hook, upgraded aluminum handles and accents, a bow reboarding ladder, and an extended Bimini top. The boat arrives on a painted trailer with swing-away tongue. An underwater light, quiet cruise technology, 3-position no-wake mode control, and cruise assist round out the offering.
