Yamaha’s V6 Four Strokes are "Smarter, Faster, Stronger and Lighter" according to the literature. These claims are well backed up, and well worth considering before you buy your next outboard.

 The new engines are big in the "CC" department, yet very compact and light due to the implementation of new technology. Weight is now comparable to direct injected two strokes, but with substantially larger capacity.

 More grunt from larger capacity means a lower 1.75:1 gear ratio has been employed on these engines. This allows the new offshore V6s to spin a larger propeller for better 'out of the hole' performance

 The new Yamaha V6s are compatible with brand new instrumentation in the form of a five inch colour LCD screen with a range of display options for the outboard and the boat.

The new technology also encompasses gear selection, with SDS - Shift Dampening System. No more bangs and clunks to scare wary fish when engaging the propeller.

Yamaha outboards are available through an Australia-wide network of authorised Yamaha outboard dealers.
