SX230 is the Latest Model
The newest model is the SX230 -- with the tower version being the AR230.
There have been only minor tweaks in the line since the SR230 was introduced in 2003. They're powered by two Yamaha MR-1 engines -- the same engine used in the WaveRunner FX Cruiser PWC, so my marine mechanic has had no problems with servicing. There's a SX230 "High Output" variant that provides 40 more horsepower than the standard 280 hp on the SX230.
Yamaha introduced a 21' version of the boat this year -- the SX210. Not sure why -- but obviously their marketing people saw a need that wasn't being met.
Because the jet nozzles are tucked underneath the stern, it does have a pretty expansive swim platform.
