Whether you're a first-time boat buyer or a family looking at moving up to a larger and very affordable runabout, the SX230 High Output is worth a look. She features room for up to 10 people, a good list of features that set her apart from other boats her size, and she delivers a fun ride.

Bow space, as you might expect, is limited on a 23-foot boat, but Yamaha does a nice job of putting that to good use by putting a self-draining ice chest under the starboard-side bow seat. If you go out skiing on a cold morning, in a runabout, a lot of times you have a wind tunnel coming right through the walk-through. Yamaha lets you eliminate that by adding this nice little door right here that locks into place. The SX230HO helm is about what you expect from a runabout, cockpit seating is really nice and roomy and very ergonomically designed.
