If you want touring comfort without stepping up to a top tier price, the Yamaha VX Cruiser HO is one of the smartest picks in the whole WaveRunner lineup. It sits right in the sweet spot for Northern Michigan riders, and it is a regular favorite in the WaveRunner inventory at Indian River Sports Center.

What the Yamaha VX Cruiser HO Offers

The VX Cruiser HO takes the approachable, easy handling VX platform and adds a high output engine plus touring features, so you get more punch and more comfort in one package.

High Output Power

The HO in the name stands for high output. Compared with the standard VX, it gives you stronger acceleration and a more confident feel when you are loaded with passengers or pulling a tube across Mullett Lake.

Touring Comfort

A plush, tiered cruiser seat and a stable hull make long days easy on riders and passengers. This is a WaveRunner built to cover water, not just blast around the launch.

Smart Everyday Features

Expect generous storage, Yamaha's RiDE dual throttle system for intuitive braking and reverse, and easy boarding, all of which make a day on the water simpler for the whole family.

Who Should Buy the VX Cruiser HO

Families and Couples

If two or three riders will regularly be aboard, the extra power and touring seat pay off every single trip. It is comfortable, planted, and easy to share.

Riders Who Want Value

The VX Cruiser HO delivers a lot of the touring experience for well under the cost of a performance model, which makes it one of the best values Yamaha builds.

How Much Is a Yamaha VX Cruiser HO?

Current model year pricing at Indian River Sports Center is right around the mid teens, and availability moves quickly in season, so it is worth checking the live listing.

Is the VX Cruiser HO Good for Beginners?

Yes. It keeps the friendly VX handling, and Yamaha's RiDE system makes slowing down and docking intuitive, so newer riders feel comfortable fast while still having room to grow.

"The owner and staff are very knowledgeable.  They helped my wife and I pick out snowmobiles that fit our needs.  In addition, he made himself available to me on several occasions as I shopped for a trailer.  I would've bought one from them but, they didn't have one in and couldn't get one in my very short time.  He also provided me information on the trailer I ended up buying which helped me negotiate $500 off of the price I was quoted.  I should also mention we drove 3 hours from down State and past several other dealers just to deal with them.  Very happy with the knowledge, availability of products and deals."

"I am very late in writing this - but I am hoping the saying "better late than never" applies here.
September 2019 I was on a motorcycle trip with a dear friend of mine heading north on I-75 when a link on the chain of my motorcycle locked up and jumped the sprockets - basically putting me in desperate need of help. I was towed to Indian River Sports Center. They quickly diagnosed the situation and were able to locate and source the parts needed fast. They had the parts overnighted, put my repairs as a priority, and me back on the road in less than 48 hours! In addition to this - they helped me find WONDERFUL accommodations close to town within walking distance to good food.
They took care of this tired traveler --- and with my travel companion needing to move on to meetup we were joining, they made me as a solo female feel safe and well taken care of. I respect that and have passed this on to MANY of the women rider sites. Respect to Indian River Sports Center!  PROFESSIONAL! KIND! QUALITY!

I cannot tell you how many times I have referred  Indian River Sports Center and the place I stayed - and how beautiful Indian River is to stay if in the area."

"Just rented a couple snowmobiles yesterday. Everyone was absolutely awesome! Very nice staff, got us in and out quick, and competitive prices. Nice facility too, if you need anything at all. We will be renting every year from now on here."

"Jeff in sales was great to deal with.  I highly recommend them.  They went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with my purchase.  I purchased a used watercraft and was treated the same as if I was buying a new one. Their customer service is top notch.  Buy with confidence!"
Brian R.
Used Boat Purchase
"Have had several new and used boats my entire life...  Absolutely unmatched service.

Jeff at IRSC called me after he was able to find me a last minute winter storage location.  Short turn around time, so he helped get me completely setup all the way down to coming to my house and picked up the boat for me.  THIS should be the standard in service... not the exception."

Boat Storage Service
"I was excited to buy a used touring snowmobile and Jeff O from Indian River Power Sports suggested to be patient and he would call when they had the right trade in. A few weeks later he found a “unicorn”! A good as new Pantera LTD. Their service department gave it a nice once over and I picked it up the following week. Great buying experience. I referred my riding buddy and Jeff found him a nice Ski Doo!  The retail store is really nice too!"
