Earlier this month, over 30 watercraft and many more participants gathered at one of the Gold Coast’s favorite spots, Broadwater for the 2015 Gold Coast WaveRunners Summer Ride Day for Charity. According to Yamaha WaveRunner Australia’s Facebook page, “Together with the help of volunteers, riders and donators a total of $1,100 was raised for the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital Burns Unit.”
With the 2016 models already hitting showrooms in Australia, many enthusiasts anticipating the purchase of a new SVHO-powered machine had their Christmas wishes made true early, allowing many to take to the water on their brand new units. Others were content to test ride many of the new models provided by Gold Coast WaveRunners. Accompanying the Yamaha Australia and Gold Coast WaveRunners teams were WORX Racing and Christian D’Agostin and the PTS racing team with their new FX SVHO, as well as super shutterbug Andrew “Skip” Donovan who provided all of the official photography for the event.
Additionally, Gold Coast WaveRunners unveiled their 2016 Yamaha FZR Limited Edition equipped with Level 1 WORX Racing Components Upgrade. As they state, “These are fast right out of the box but if you want that little bit more then this is for you. Yamaha Motor Finance in store works out at only $136 per week (on a trailer) drive away with a $500 deposit (T.A.P.). Come in and check it out now and be the envy of everyone this Christmas!”
Lastly, Yamaha Australia closed out the ride day saying, “Yamaha and Gold Coast Waverunners would like to thank all the riders who participated, Worx Racing Components for their generous donation, and Photo by Skip for the fantastic photos.” You can click here for the full Facebook photo gallery.
