Yamaha 31 EX

Description

The Yamaha 31 EX (also known as Yamaha Ex 31 or Y-31 EX) is a Japanese-built fiberglass cruiser from the late 1980s–1990s, produced by Yamaha Marine. It reflects the brand's emphasis on solid construction, quality details, and a balance of performance with cruising comfort. The "EX" designation typically indicates an enhanced or export-oriented variant, often featuring a taller rig for improved light-air capability compared to standard or "S" models in the 31-foot range.
