The 2018 Yamaha EX1050BTA, also known as the Yamaha WaveRunner EX, is a versatile and affordable personal watercraft (PWC) designed for recreational riders. It is powered by a 1,049cc TR-1 engine, which produces around 100 horsepower. This engine is lightweight and efficient, offering a solid balance of performance and fuel economy, with a top speed of about 50 mph.
The EX series, introduced in 2017, targets those looking for an entry-level PWC, competing directly with models like the Sea-Doo Spark. Weighing just 577 lbs, the EX's lightweight hull design provides excellent stability, making it capable of carrying up to three passengers. Its nimble handling allows it to spin and carve aggressively, making it a fun option for both casual cruising and more spirited rides.
Key features include a 13.2-gallon fuel tank, 7.7 gallons of storage, and the ability to tow tubes or small water toys. Its affordability and strong build make it an excellent choice for beginners or families wanting to explore the water without breaking the bank?
