Blanch the yams in boiling water with a little salt until just soft. Remove from the water and spread out onto a sheet tray.

In a bowl, mix the scallops with the lime juice, tossing lightly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Meanwhile, spread the shredded coconut on a baking sheet and toast in a 350 degree oven until golden brown, about 5 minutes, stirring every few minutes so that the coconut toasts evenly.
