New to the Yamaha WaveRunner line in 2022 is the fun and exciting JetBlaster that delivers a playful, freestyle riding experience like no other sit down watercraft before.
Inspired by the agility and manoeuvrability of Yamaha’s legendary SuperJet, this craft combines the freedom of a stand-up with the versatility of a sit-down personal watercraft, to deliver next level thrills and performance.
The key to the unique performance and innovative design is the custom-tuned electric trim, built-in footwell chocks and raised action handlebars.
The electric trim gives the rider the ability to pop out of the water, do spins and other exciting maneuvers, while the built-in footwell chocks, located towards the rear of the craft, allow the rider to adjust their riding position when freestyle riding.
The wide mounted, high action handlebars, provide increased leverage over the craft, allowing the rider to quickly change direction and execute extreme moves with ease.
Whether you are after a stand-up or sit-down WaveRunner, Yamaha now ticks all the boxes when it comes to freestyle riding.

The integrated foot chocks located at the rear of the footwells, allows you to redistribute your weight for a more secure stance when riding standing up - allowing you to perform more aggressive freestyle maneuvers.
Exclusive to the JetBlaster, the electric trim is tuned to give you the ability to pop out of the water, do spins, and other high action maneuvers. It allows you to transform the craft's riding characteristics from serious to playful and everywhere in between.
The motor cross inspired handlebars are taller and wider, giving you more leverage over the craft, and the new performance grips reduce hand slippage and fatigue. The small switch boxes give the craft a cleaner, more sporty look.
The glovebox provides enough space to hold your valuables and easily accessible.
Yamaha’s patented RiDE™ is the world's first dual throttle handlebar control system, that makes handling easy, fun and intuitive. Pull the right lever to accelerate and the left lever to decelerate and for reverse. Release both levers, or in any combination, and the system reacts with precise control.
Designed to make it easier to reboard your craft after a swim. Conveniently tucks away when not in use. Comes as standed on all EXR WaveRunners.
All Yamaha WaveRunners utilise open loop cooling, which is used by 99% of marine manufacturers. Open loop systems have been proven to be the most effective, reliable and maintenance free solution for marine environments, which means lower cost of ownership and less time off the water.
Powering the JetBlaster is the three-cylinder 1L Yamaha TR-1 HO Marine Engine that is the most powerful motor in a compact-size watercraft today. Feeding this award-winning motor is a 50 Litre fuel tank allowing for a full day of riding.
