The 2026 Yamaha WaveRunner VX is a three-person jet boat built around a 1.8-liter high-output engine paired with a direct-drive transmission. It measures 11 feet in length and features a V-hull constructed with Yamaha's NanoXcel® material for lightweight, responsive handling. The jet pump uses an axial-flow design, and the boat runs on a standard electric-start gasoline system with an 18.5-gallon fuel capacity.

Seating consists of large, contoured seats with textured surfaces for grip, and the boat accommodates a rider plus two passengers. A spacious rear swim platform serves for boarding, swimming, or gear loading. Storage includes front and rear compartments totaling 30.1 gallons of capacity, keeping personal items dry and secure.

The control layout features a multi-function information display with standard speedometer, tachometer, and mirrors. A sport tow hook is fitted for tubing and recreational towing. The boat weighs 686 pounds dry and is compatible with optional Yamaha marine audio systems for those seeking integrated sound.
