  • The new Yellowfin Consoles Plate Boats are not built in isolation but are part of the Yellowfin Plate boats universe. The main design challenge was the creation of a modular platform, to allow rear and centre consoles to be built in several different lengths. From seating configurations to casting platforms and different console design, every component is crafted for seamlessly integration, aligned to the very strong Yellowfin design identity in mind.

  • Thanks to a strong focus on ergonomics and customer experience, the new Yellowfin console boats can accommodate two different console style and relatives seating configurations. The consoles are design to maximise storage, space for electronics and protection while delivering an unprecedented level of comfort to help delivering a sense of confidence even in the toughest water condition. The fit and finish as also been improved with a renewed graphics and color palette aligned with the latest color and materials trends.

  • The new Yellowfin Consoles Plate Boats is designed to streamline production thanks to an improved and modular design that allow different configurations and sizes around the same platform. The customer safety is another design team priority and thanks to the improved ergonomics, it helps creating a safer and more secure boat, especially under rough water condition.
