I like it- anyone have some convincing arguements on how a broke S.O.B. can explain to his wife that he needs a nairn? ( new and improved round nose) especially when he has too many skis already?

so it doesn't have a 760- that would have been sweet, but given the choice - I would prefer the hull mods over the motor mod. for most of you the 760 would still be inadequate- so shut it! :theyareontome:

as far as the front not being as wide as doing tubbies- wouldn't the narrowed rear make up for it? I bet if someone measure with tubbie II's and the 07 rear vs. the nairn it is the same of more on the nairn. and there is no way I would ever spend the money for a setback conversion so again bonus- trim in play- bonus. Its a freeride hull from the factory! could of used a little shorter pole but whatever. oh and footholds but I can see the legal disaster that would be.

I want one!!!!!

Haven't you been paying attention? :chairshot:

The intake gullet and pump has been moved back almost 2 inches. The only reason why the ride plate is sticking out is because Yamaha is too cheap to re-tool for a new plate (at least this pre-production version). I'm also really diggin' the deeper chines too. Flatwater (freestyle) guys are going to hate this hull.

An no, this isn't a "square nose ride plate." Even the other RN (up to 2007) have a 6 hole rideplate from factory (as pictured on this '08 model)...but on the prior RN they don't drill the middle holes. The 6 counter sunk area is still there.

When do the new Yamaha's generally come out?

The rn up to before this had the bilge holder removed
its an old square nose plate bolted om there for sure

not that it matters it will be the first thing to be removed

Sounds like a good ski. Lightweight AND good Handling. I think I'll get a Carbon SXR hull from Trinity before this SJ.

Honestly.... very few have any idea were his hull will set the bar! :starwars:

It is absolutley incredible..... there's a few people who have got to put there hands on the lower skin... its 24lbs, and probably stronger then anything out there.... :spank::Banane01:

3rd generation sj


looks nice, I wonder why they narrowed the rear instead of widening everything. I wonder if the "tubby" section is the original sj width because the rear is less than the original width.

Less width will be less pop out of the water..... who know's, Yamaha probably will say its for racing.

Edit: Just noticed on the other site they are talking about an addition of a 4-stroke SJ by next year.

If you want the 760, pro-tec pipe, trim system?, etc just buy the European Rius Edition.

This boat was developed over the past two years by Rius and his crew. The set-up for is more geared for racing. (closed course).

Read the side of the ski; race performance not freestyle performance.
