2022 Yamaha FSH 252

What stands out on this 252 FSH is how usable every inch of deck space feels. The walkaround bow makes it easy to work a fish around the boat, yet the forward cushions convert quickly when the crew wants to lounge. At the helm, the combination of analog-style visibility and modern screens gives you a clean, confident driving position with excellent sightlines while docking. The aft cockpit shines as a social zone—drop in a table, spin the seats, and you’ve got a floating patio. Underway, the tall freeboard and deep cockpit keep kids and guests feeling secure, even when it’s choppy outside the inlet.

This 252 FSH layout is dialed in for the mix of shallow creeks, open sounds, and nearshore runs common in this region. Jet propulsion lets you sneak across skinny water to sandbars and grass edges without worrying about a lower unit, while the 24-foot hull has the size and fuel range for comfortable days hopping between distant spots. The open bow and wide, stable beam suit both casting and anchoring up on a shoal. With plenty of shade, secure seating, and easy boarding from the stern platform, it’s equally comfortable for family beach days, wake sessions, or early-morning trips to the nearshore wrecks.
