Brace yourselves… Because Yamaha just reinvented the jet ski. Or rather, gave it a Ph.D. in versatility. Meet the CrossWave, the personal watercraft that scoffs at “just riding” and instead invites you to fish, lounge, anchor, or just look cool while still going way too fast for your own good.
CrossWave’s High-Output Engine
Let’s start with the 1.9-liter High-Output Yamaha Marine Engine. Yes, 1.9L, the bulkiest displacement in any personal water craft (PWC) today. Translation: blistering acceleration, “what did I just do?” top speed thrills, and smug satisfaction that you’re riding the biggest engine in the class. Yamaha didn’t just push boundaries, they steamrolled them.

Now, for the cockpit, Yamaha has smuggled a command center worthy of a sci-fi spaceship. A Horizontal Helm graced by dual 7-inch displays (your choice of Connext or Simrad electronics) puts full control of navigation, music, and whatever else you fancy right in your lap. Convenience, meet cool.
Versatile Features
But wait, cleaning debris out of the pump without dunking your legs in water? That’s the new clean-out port, and yes, it’s a world-first. Stay dry and stay in control.

Need storage and more deck flexibility than a Swiss Army knife at a picnic? The four-passenger split seating lets you remove seats three and four to make way for gear, or a dance floor, we won’t judge. Add to that a dedicated anchor locker satisfying enough to make other PWCs feel underdressed.

Oh, and did we mention the integrated T-Track system? Customize your rig; rod holders, coolers, sundeck setup, wherever you like. It’s your mobile water command post.
Bottom Line
The CrossWave isn’t just a WaveRunner, it’s a lifestyle upgrade. It looks good, goes fast, hauls your gear, anchors itself, and probably plays your playlist too. No wonder it’s billed as “Go Big. Go Further. Do Everything.” Coming Spring 2026, and yes, life on the water will be forever changed.
