Power And Performance

Single Overhead Camshaft

A Single Overhead Camshaft (SOHC) design creates a compact, lightweight, space-saving design.

Fuel Economy

Precision Multi-Point Electronic Fuel Injection on the T60 and T50 delivers the exact amount of fuel needed for optimum performance and efficiency. Yamaha’s EFI optimizes fuel atomization, further enhancing fuel economy.

More Thrust

The Higher Gear Ratio on Yamaha’s High Thrust outboards make these powerhouses ideal for heavy pontoons and other applications that require an extra measure of muscle.

Throttle Response

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 V6 outboards deliver incredible hole shot and mid-range acceleration.

Max Muscle

Increase thrust up to 60 percent in forward and 70 percent in reverse with a large-diameter, low-pitch Dual Thrust™ propeller.

Reliability And Durability

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 High Thrust four-stroke engines.
