Reliability & Durability
- Corrosion Protection: Combined
with our proprietary alloy (YDC-30), our exclusive Phaze Five™
anti-corrosive paint system provides a tough, five-layer barrier against
corrosion. This protection is standard on all Yamaha Midrange
four-stroke engines.
- Advanced Technology: The F40
and F30 are equipped with an Engine Control Module that interfaces with
Yamaha Diagnostic System software. This provides a view of selected past
and current running conditions, to help technicians provide a complete
and accurate diagnosis of your engine.
- Protection from the Elements: A
proven one-piece cowling with an intake air drain system easily and
efficiently drains water away that enters the cowling. Incoming air is
routed through a labyrinth of passages that help trap water before it
enters the engine’s intake for maximum reliability.
- Cleaner Fuel: A large,
on-engine water separating fuel filter with a water sensor is used in
conjunction with the Yamaha optional boat-mounted 10-Micron Water
Separating Fuel Filter. This helps separate water and contaiminants from
the fuel before they can reach the outboard’s other filters and fuel
injectors.
Convenience & Control
- Control and Comfort: Our
optional, award-winning Multi-Function Tiller handle features a Variable
Trolling RPM Switch (VTS®). It allows for precision trolling speed
adjustments in 50-RPM increments. Compatible with all Midrange models.
- Easy Engine Flushing: A
Freshwater Flush Device allows you to flush the engine without running
it, for added convenience and extended engine life.
- Power Trim and Tilt: Power trim
and tilt models provide a trim range of -3 up to +20 degrees. This
brings the bow of the boat up, for better hole shot and top speed and a
smoother ride.
