Yamaha Boats 220 FSH Sport

The 2025 Yamaha 220 FSH Sport is a versatile and innovative center console boat that seamlessly blends fishing functionality with family-friendly features. Designed to cater to both avid anglers and recreational boaters, this 22-foot vessel embodies Yamaha’s commitment to quality, performance, and versatility.

 

Design and Dimensions

 

Measuring 22 feet in length with a beam of 8 feet 6 inches, the 220 FSH Sport offers a spacious and stable platform for various on-water activities. The boat’s 20-degree deadrise ensures a smooth and comfortable ride, even in choppy conditions. With a draft of just 19 inches, it is well-suited for shallow waters, allowing access to fishing spots that might be challenging for deeper-draft vessels. 

 

Power and Performance

 

Equipped with twin Yamaha TR-1® High Output (HO) marine engines, the 220 FSH Sport delivers a combined 230 horsepower. These 1,049cc, three-cylinder, four-stroke engines are renowned for their reliability and efficiency. The jet propulsion system not only provides quick acceleration and impressive top speeds but also enhances maneuverability, especially in shallow waters. Yamaha’s patented jet drive system utilizes an internal impeller, eliminating the need for an external propeller, which reduces maintenance and increases safety.

The boat also features an insulated fish box to store your catch and multiple rod storage options, including side console, gunwale, and horizontal rod holders, accommodating up to 24 rods. The T-top with rod holders offers additional storage and protection from the elements, enhancing the overall fishing experience.

The spacious bow area includes comfortable seating with removable cushions, making it ideal for relaxation or socializing. A dedicated anchor and rope locker ensures easy anchoring when it’s time to swim or enjoy a peaceful moment on the water. The integrated swim platform at the stern, complete with a stainless steel telescopic reboarding ladder, facilitates easy access to the water for swimming or watersports.

These thoughtfully designed spaces ensure that all gear, whether for fishing or family fun, is organized and readily accessible.
