I read somewhere that the fuel efficiency of the 1.9 is the same as the SVHO.

I just bought a VX cruiser 24. Not the HO. Everyone tells me I'll want the extra speed but to be honest I've really been enjoying it. Can you do a video review of you pulling someone behind you on a tube or skis?

Absolutely, I’ll plan a video for that. One of my first skis was the base model VX and I will agree at some point you will likely want to upgrade to a little more power but it’s still a very fun machine. Enjoy it!

@@Watercraftshackdid you change the speed in the menu on the ski? Make sure you set the acceleration to normal and speed to high. Hit ok TWICE to make sure it’s enabled… once you are in this mode you will feel the 1.9 really cut loose. It should go 67mph. I have the 2024 VX HO. Have fun!

The 1.8 engine was and is still perfect. This new engine has to be proven over time just like the rest. Disappointed that Yamaha persists with that forward hatch that is impossible to access on the water.

@@whotube357I didn’t know that about the 1.8’s. Is that “Across the Board”. Or only when they are ridden aggressively for long periods of time (%). Or possibly water conditions? I would venture to guess Salt (Ocean) water riding is harder on skis (all brands), than fresh. Thanks in advance for any insight to this.

Lucy you...seriously. In our neck of the woods the millionaire good ol' boys who dominate our OEM market are dicks 24/7 for sales and service. They know almost nothing about these ski pre sale and are the largest dealers in our neck of the woods. Most/many of use drive 100-200 miles to buy from anyone but local.
