Yamaha’s thirst for innovation continues with the SHO WaveRunner’s Cruise Assist function. Another industry first, Yamaha has created a throttle control system similar to automobile cruise control where the PWC rider can set and hold speeds. Once the speed is set, the rider can raise or lower the speed at the flick of a switch.
When travelling through waterways with No Wake zones, the SHO WaveRunner rider can engage Yamaha’s No Wake mode which automatically adjusts the engine’s RPM to an optimum speed for minimal wake. Ideal for navigating through marinas and narrow channels, the No Wake feature is switched off the instant more throttle is applied.
The WaveRunner Advantage
Successful features like the Four-Step Adjustable Tilt Steering System have also been employed on the new SHO WaveRunner models along with the popular dash mounted Multi-Function Electronic Information Centre and the remote operated Yamaha Security System for peace of mind off the water.
A Yamaha SHO WaveRunner experience is made all the more enjoyable with creature comforts including an extra large rear boarding platform with retractable reboarding step, dual mirrors for improved rear visibility, glove box and self draining cup holders plus 100 litres of total onboard storage.
Yamaha has packaged two superb SHO WaveRunner PWC’s both with distinct styles and needs. Apart from colour choices, little separates the two fully loaded WaveRunner models with the FX Cruiser SHO receiving Yamaha’s Cruiser Seat with handlebars and extra features on the digital display including air/water temperature, fuel consumption, compass plus pop up cleats for easy mooring.
We’re due for a ride on the new machine later this month so stay tuned.
