Adrenalin and action: Seven Yamaha waverunners in a big comparison test

Yamaha has been one of the leading brands in the waverunner sector for decades. The term "waverunner" was originally coined by Yamaha and is now synonymous with high-quality, high-performance jet skis - as our author learnt during the test, they should not be described as the latter. The portfolio offers a wide range of models that are tailored to different requirements. Both beginners and advanced skiers will get their money's worth. The robust construction and the use of high-quality materials should guarantee a long service life.
