PERFORMANCE

This new four stroke is a true outboard; engineered, designed, and developed specifi cally 
for the marine environment.  It’s three-cylinder, single overhead camshaft design means 
powerful performance in a compact package, and that performance is available in both 
propeller and jet-driven models to effectively power a myriad of applications and 
designs.  With a newly-designed single throttle valve, a long intake track manifold, 
and an Electronic Control Module these engines feature easy starting, fast 
acceleration, and excellent top-end speed while still delivering the 
outstanding fuel-effi ciency Yamaha outboards are known for. 

RELIABILITY

 

Yamaha’s proven 40hp four-stroke outboard design now comes with the 
addition of electronic multi-point fuel injection for easy, turn-key starting.  
A large, on-engine water-separating fuel fi lter further adds to its long-term 
reliability approach, as does an integral engine monitoring and warning 
system and Yamaha’s renowned Ultimate Corrosion Protection System.  
These features help provide the peace of mind that comes standard with 
every Yamaha outboard.

available information, great control; all in a compact, easy-to-own-and-operate 
package.

fuel effi ciency.  Maximum performance and convenience.  All combine to make
