Yamaha jet boat parts

Yamaha is a major manufacturer of jet boats and has been in the business for many years. Parts are specific to models and new models are added each year. A detailed catalogue is available for each model by year. Hence the model number and year of manufacture have to be set in order to view all Yamaha jet boat parts.

It is important to plan sourcing of parts when operating a jet boat, as many different items are involved and since extensive down time can be most upsetting. Jet boats operate under strain and at peak levels for extended periods. Timely replacement of key parts can keep the boat in pristine conditions for years.

Some important parts common to many models are the top, the carburetor, the crankshaft, deck drains and hatches, electrical fittings and systems, exhausts, engines, fuel tank, generator, helm, jet units, oil tank and pump, remote control cables, seating, starting motor, steering equipment and ventilation.

Digital depth finders, spotlights, fenders, dock lines, inflators, coils, aluminum fuel caps, and tie downs, are some of the important accessories for Yamaha jet boats. Oil, lubricants, adhesives and cleaners are some key consumables that should be added to the list of spares. Tool sets, engine stands, stowaway boxes are some utilities that should be in inventory along with spare parts.

Parts are available from a number of Internet sites, most of which offer deals, promotions and special prices. These operators have to carry large inventories of many items and have arrangements to ship them quickly to major markets around the world.

Service manuals will detail the Yamaha jet boat parts that should be kept in store for minimum down time and quick rectification of common maintenance issues. Yamaha has an extended service program (YES) that reduces the chances of breakdowns and expensive repair bills. Such a plan is of considerable value after a warranty has expired.

Yamaha jet boat parts cannot be bought direct from the company. All purchases are through a network of accredited dealers. Most dealers are available on-line and will respond quickly to information requests and to purchase decisions.
