The 2025 Yamaha 252SD is a premier 25-foot boat that exemplifies Yamaha’s dedication to luxury, performance, and innovative design. Crafted to cater to boating enthusiasts seeking both comfort and functionality, the 252SD integrates advanced technology with high-quality materials to deliver an exceptional on-water experience.
Design and Dimensions
Measuring 24.5 feet in length with a beam of 8.6 feet, the 252SD offers a spacious and stable platform for various water activities. The boat’s dry weight is approximately 4,612 pounds, contributing to its robust build and steady performance on the water. The vessel’s draft is 1.58 feet, allowing for navigation in relatively shallow waters without compromising stability.
Power and Performance
At the heart of the 252SD are twin 1.9L High Output Yamaha marine engines. These four-stroke, four-cylinder, 16-valve engines are renowned for their smooth acceleration and impressive top speeds, providing excellent towing power for all your watersports activities. The jet propulsion system enhances maneuverability and safety by eliminating exposed propellers, making it ideal for families and watersport enthusiasts.
Innovative Technology: DRiVE X
One of the standout features of the 2025 Yamaha 252SD is the inclusion of DRiVE X technology. This advanced system revolutionizes boat maneuverability, allowing operators to move the boat forward, backward, or sideways with ease. The intuitive control provided by DRiVE X simplifies docking and tight-space navigation, making it accessible even for less experienced boaters.
Helm and Control Systems
The helm of the 252SD is designed with the operator in mind, featuring a 12.3-inch Connext touchscreen display with maps. This interface provides easy access to vital information and control over various boat systems, including Yamaha’s E-Series features such as drive-by-wire technology and blue LED-lit helm switch panels. Wireless charging points are also integrated, ensuring your devices remain powered throughout your voyage.
Comfort and Seating
Passenger comfort is paramount in the design of the 252SD. The boat features a deeper cockpit and convertible stern seatbacks that can be moved forward or backward to create versatile seating arrangements in the stern and cockpit areas. This adaptability allows for a more personalized and comfortable experience, whether you’re lounging, socializing, or preparing for watersports activities.
Entertainment and Amenities
Entertainment is seamlessly integrated into the 252SD, with a premium marine stereo system featuring seven standard Hertz speakers, including stern speakers and a stern stereo remote for convenient control. LED accent lighting throughout the boat enhances the ambiance during evening cruises. The extended Bimini™ top provides ample shade, ensuring comfort during sunny days on the water.
Storage and Convenience
Storage solutions are thoughtfully incorporated throughout the 252SD. The boat includes a dinette table mount, marine-grade mat, stern (wet) storage, and a freshwater shower for rinsing off after swimming. Factory-installed swim-up seat brackets and included swim-up seat accessories make water access easy and enjoyable.
Fuel Capacity and Efficiency
With a fuel capacity of 75 gallons, the 252SD is designed for extended outings, allowing you to explore further without frequent refueling stops. The efficient twin engines ensure that you can enjoy longer journeys with optimal fuel consumption.
Safety and Reliability
Safety is a cornerstone of Yamaha’s design philosophy. The 252SD is equipped with features like the 3-position “No Wake Mode™” control and Cruise Assist, providing better control in various speed zones. The dual battery setup ensures reliable power, and the inclusion of Quiet Cruise Technology reduces noise levels, enhancing the overall boating experience.
Exterior Features
The exterior of the 252SD is both functional and stylish, featuring stainless steel bow rails, seven stainless steel pop-up cleats, and a tow hook for watersports. The extended Bimini™ top offers protection from the sun, and the underwater lights add a touch of elegance during nighttime excursions.
Conclusion
The 2025 Yamaha 252SD stands as a testament to Yamaha’s commitment to delivering luxury, performance, and innovative technology in the boating industry. Its combination of powerful twin engines, advanced maneuverability features like DRiVE X, and a host of comfort and entertainment amenities make it an ideal choice for those seeking a premium boating experience. Whether you’re an avid watersports enthusiast or someone who enjoys leisurely cruises with family and friends, the 252SD is designed to meet and exceed your expectations on the water.
