    • With impressive features like a long span mounting and labyrinth exhaust system, this engine delivers smooth and quiet power.

  • Improved Response

    Prime Start

    • Exclusive to Yamaha, PrimeStart™ makes starting as easy as starting a car.

    • Automatically controls the ‘warming up’ process.

    • Eliminates the need for a choke or revving in neutral for cold starts.

  • Optimum Power

    Multi-Point Electronic Fuel Injection

    • Working in unison with multiple sensors and the electonic control unit, the Multi-Point Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system injects the right air - fuel mixture at the optimum timing.

    • Delivers maximum engine performance and quick engine starts.

  • Powerful Hole Shot

    Long Intake Manifold

    • The Long Tube Intake Tracks are tuned to increase airflow, boosting low-end and midrange torque.

    • This results in a more powerful hole shot and improved acceleration.

  • Charging Power

    Alternator

    • The 12 Volt 16 Amp high-output alternator ensures that power is always available to start the engine, even after long periods of idling.

    • Provides sufficient power to run an array of electronic devices.

  • Easy Flushing

    Fresh Water Flushing Device

    • Simply connect a garden hose to the outboard's input port to flush out salt and debris without starting the engine.

    • This helps prevent corrosion, extends the life of the outboard and keeps things nice and quiet for your neighbours.
