Yamaha V-6 Offshore Four Stroke Outboards 

THROTTLE RESPONSE AND ACCELERATION

Yamaha’s Variable Camshaft Timing system advances and retards the angle of the intake camshaft to dramatically increase 
power and throttle response in the low- and mid-rpm ranges. This feature helps Yamaha’s new 4.2 liter big-bore V-6 
Offshore Outboard to deliver awesome hole shot and mid-range acceleration you have to feel to believe.

BEST-IN-CLASS FUEL EFFICIENCY

Yamaha’s 300hp V6 Offshore outboard has up to 17% better long-range fuel economy at 3500 rpm than other 300hp 
4 stroke outboards.  All air entering the engine block of each Yamaha V6 Offshore outboard is routed through a single 75mm 
electronically-controlled throttle valve.  Working in concert with the Precision Multi-Point Fuel Injection System, together 
they help ensure the precise amount of air and fuel necessary for optimum power and fuel effi ciency.  The reduction in 
friction from the Micro-Textured Cylinder Walls further adds to this outboard’s amazing fuel economy.
