How do you get a duplicate Yamaha ignition key?

I went to Folsom Lock and Safe to get a duplicate of my Yamaha Vmax key made and they told me I'd need to get a blank from the manufacturer that they'd then cut. Is that the case?

I don't need the rubberized key that came with the boat, just a functioning duplicate.

Anyone know how to get a copy made?

Thanks,

Peter

Contact your boat dealer. If you have a ranger than contact the nearest ranger dealer, etc. I have found this to be the best avenue.

Hope this helps.

if yamaha does it the same for the boats as the bikes and quads you have to order the key from a dealer by the key code. you can also try lock world in s.f. they do all the yamaha keys by code.

I was able to buy one, pre-cut at Buck's Outboard.

If you pull the key part way out of the rubber insert it's in, there's a 3 digit number. Yamaha dealers stock the keys.

$5 for a new one.
