F150A   The four stroke Yamaha F150A series have already established a class leading reputation for performance, economy and reliability. With weights from just 216kg this compact, smooth and ultra quiet 150hp outboard is one of the lightest engines in this class. Of course, electronic fuel injection is standard, resulting in a smooth power delivery. As with all larger Yamaha outboards, they are offered with Flexi-Rig. For our special discount price, please call OUTBOARDS-DIRECT of BRIGHTON on 01273-603322 or e-mail us via the ‘Contact Us’ button towards the top left of this page. e.&o.e. ©  
F200C / F225CETL Sport   The 60° V6, 24 valve four stroke Yamaha F200C and the Yamaha F225CETL Sport offer levels of refinement unmatched by other four strokes. These engines feature a world first, an ‘in bank’ exhaust system, which reverses the conventional layout of the intake and exhaust systems used by competitors, and offers remarkable compactness. They also have dual double overhead camshafts to further improve efficiency. The electronic fuel injection system is controlled by a microprocessor to ensure that the emissions are low at all times. To assist in reducing emissions, these remarkable Yamaha four strokes also use blow-by gas re-burning technology. The F225CETL Sport has a long shaft leg designed for lighter sporty boats with 508mm / 20’’ transoms. The F225CETL Sport also has been specially tuned for extra torque in the low and mid-ranges to maximise performance. For technical specifications and pictures, please click on ‘View details’.

F225F / F250D / F300B   Yamaha’s slim, large 4,169cc capacity, 60° V6, is offered in three different powers. Starting with the F225FETX 225hp outboard motor, through the F250DETX 250hp outboard engine, and finally up to the F300BETX 300hp, these remarkable outboards have the largest engine capacity in the 225hp to 300hp classes, and yet, it is the lightest four stroke on the market in these sizes. Not only do they offer the best power to weight ratio, but they utilise advanced features such as Double Overhead Camshaft (DOHC) with Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) to dramatically increase power and throttle response in the low and mid RPM ranges, a blow-by gas reburning system to assist keeping exhaust emissions to a minimum, and even a special thermally applied, plasma fusion process on the walls of the cylinders that is 60% harder than the conventional steel liners it replaces, reducing wear, friction and weight, and increasing cooling and longevity. These class leading Yamaha outboards are controlled by a digital “fly by wire” control system, which does away completely with conventional remote control cables, offering long term, the smoothest and most precise operation you will have experienced. They even offer variable trolling rpm so that you can ensure that the boat is moving at the perfect speed to catch that monster sized fish! Don’t worry if you have lots of power hungry electronics on-board, as all these Yamaha outboards have a class leading 70 amp alternator output. Special attention was made during the design process to keep noise levels to an absolute minimum, far less than some competitors. All this and of course the usual Yamaha reliability and longevity, due in no small part through the use of the best materials and methods available. These include the use of YDC30 special marine aluminium alloy, Alumite anodic coating and an internal and external electro-deposited paint process. Yamaha don’t do cheap, they only do top grade quality! For pictures and specifications, please click on the ‘View details’ button.

F350A   Are you looking for the ultimate four stroke engine? Look no further, as it is here, right now! This 32 valve, double overhead camshaft 5,330cc V8 produces quite simply, just awesome power! The Yamaha F350A is the most powerful production four stroke outboard engine in the world. Fit one in place of twin 200hp engines, and the result can be a faster boat, greater range and of course, less weight on the transom! The narrow 60° angle V8 cylinder configuration results in a remarkably slender engine. This powerhouse is bristling with advanced features, ranging from variable valve timing, through In-Bank ™ dual exhaust, to an ionic combustion sensor! All this and ‘fly by wire’ too! The long inlet tracts further enhance the prodigious torque, resulting in almost mind-blowing acceleration. Also amazing are the ultra low noise levels, even when running at high speed. Not only are the controls digitally operated, but of course, so are all the instruments, which are NMEA compatible. The alternator puts out a healthy 50 amps, but more important is the 40 amps available at just 1,000rpm, which should be enough to run all the electronics you may require! An ultra tough gear case and special forged motor mounts for strength and durability. With more performance, better fuel economy and far more space inside the boat, the days of petrol inboards are numbered!

  FEATURES AND YAMAHA ACCESSORIES  
   
Y-COP Security System   Y-COP (Yamaha Customer Outboard Protection) is an industry first. It is an easy to use remote control, immobiliser security system. It was introduced with the Yamaha F30B and F40F models and is now standard on all Yamaha outboards from 30hp through to the through to the range topping 350hp model. It is not only applicable to the remote control models, but even works on the tiller control versions! It is operated by a neat and simple, remote control “plipper” similar to that on most modern cars. With it, you can ‘lock’ and ‘unlock’. When unlocked your engine functions normally. Once locked, your Yamaha outboard motor will not start, and consequently if someone then attempts to use your Yamaha outboard, they will not be able to start the engine. Obviously as the engine will not run, Y-COP makes your Yamaha outboard engine far less attractive to thieves and of course, prevents the engine from being “hot-wired”. The system comprises of three main items. The owner operated “plipper”, a receiver unit and the outboard’s own EMM engine management module. All you need to remember is to press the ‘unlock’ button on the “plipper” before starting the engine and of course the ‘lock’ button when you have finished for the day. Disconnecting the battery will not allow a ‘locked’ system to unlock, and if either another receiver unit or “plipper” are used with the engine, the outboard will also not start, as the engine’s own management module will only recognise the correct units. For more details please call Charles Oakley on 01273-603322 or e-mail us via the ‘Contact Us’ button towards the top left of this page. e.&o.e. ©  
‘Fly by wire’ digital controls   These new generation ‘fly by wire’ remote controls are used on all the Yamaha outboards from the F225FETX up to the mighty F300AETU. They control both the throttle and the gears electronically. They do away with conventional control cables, as they operate the engine(s) by transmitting the commands digitally through an easy to fit, single wiring harness that is used by the engine instruments and the Yamaha Y-Cop security immobiliser system. These digital remote controls are smoother and lighter in operation than any conventional system, and of course, have no slack, giving instant, precise control. Long or complicated cable runs are now made simple, and do not affect the operation in anyway. Cable adjustments when fitting and when servicing are a thing of the past. No more need to replace control cables that have become worn or split in use. Being more compact than conventional remote control boxes results in more space on the dashboard for other items such as radios, plotters and extra instruments. Please click on ‘View details for pictures of these superb control boxes. e.&o.e. ©  
Flexi-Rig   Many propeller and remote-control options are now available through Yamaha Flexible Rigging, and this gives the ultimate choice when rigging your boat. There is a choice of alloy, stainless steel or high performance three and four blade propellers, as well as side, top or concealed-mount remote-control boxes. Standard parts are included in the price of the engine, which include a propeller, a remote control box and the very latest LAN Digital gauges, which are NMEA2000 compatible and may be combined with other NMEA devices. E.&o.e. ©  
Multi Function Gauges   Standard on some and available as an option on many others Yamaha engines, are three versions of these superb instruments. The most common example is the MULTI FUNCTION TACHOMETER. This displays via an easy-to-read 2 stage LCD digital readout: Engine RPM / Trim angle / Oil level / Hour meter / Warning lamps. The MULTI FUNCTION SPEEDOMETER is similar to the tachometer, but displays: Speed / Trip / Time / Fuel / Battery voltage with low fuel and low voltage warnings. Finally the similar FUEL MANAGEMENT GAUGE monitors: Fuel consumption / Fuel economy (using speedometer or GPS input for readings) / Fuel contamination (when Yamaha deluxe Fuel/Water Separator is used) For dual engine installations an engine synchroniser is included. ©  
Outboard Motor Covers   The perfect match for your Yamaha outboard in colour, style and quality. This range of covers have been custom designed for each Yamaha model, to provide a snug fitting cover to protect your engine from scratches, dust, sunlight and the weather in general. The outer material is an extremely durable and high quality waterproof fabric that is resistant to rot, mildew and UV light, so that it just shrugs off the weather. The special soft inner lining protects the paintwork and helps eliminate condensation as well as making the cover easy to fit. Perfect fit for perfect protection, keeps your engine looking its best and of course, a better looking engine keeps its value longer! e.& o.e. ©  
Dual Thrust Propellers   Yamaha's patented Dual Thrust propellers are specially designed for yachts and any other large displacement craft. They are built to handle the job of pushing heavy loads through the water. The hub is carefully designed to redirect the exhaust flow away from the blades so that Dual Thrust propellers cut through “clean water” for higher efficiency and better acceleration. Thrust is improved by up to 70% in reverse and 10% forwards. e.&o.e. ©  
Yamaha propellers   Yamaha provide virtually every different type of outboard motor propeller of which you can think! Aluminium, through black stainless steel, to polished stainless steel, to high performance over-hub-exhaust propellers. Yamaha can provide them all. Please ask for details as to which propeller will best suit your needs. e.&o.e. ©

  DETAILS OF EXHAUST EMISSIONS ETC. SHOWN BELOW.  
   
Emissions Regulations: The Truth   There has been, and still is a lot of serious misinformation concerning the EU 2006 emission regulations. Firstly, these are the ONLY regulations that affect recreational outboards sold in the UK and the rest of the EU. Engines used for commercial operations, safety boats etc., do not fall under the scope of these regulations. In simple terms. all new outboards sold in the EU for recreational use after31st December 2006 have to comply with the EU2006 emission regulations. Regarding NEW outboard motors, only new technology (Direct Fuel Injection) spark ignition two stroke (for example, the Evinrude E-TEC range), spark ignition four stroke and compression ignition engines meet the new standards and are the only outboards which may be manufactured within, or imported into the EU now. Spark ignition means all engines powered by petrol / gas, whilst compression ignition means engines powered by diesel. However, contrary to popular belief, ALL outboard motors in use prior to the implementation of the new standard CAN continue to be used until they fall apart! The new directive does not ban the use of conventional 2-strokes, imported / manufactured within the EU prior to 2007. It is important to note that non-compliant outboard engines imported / manufactured within the E.U. from 2007 onwards can only be sold and used by non-recreational users for the entire life of the outboard. It has always been possible that an authority in charge of a particular area may impose their own local regulations. This applies primarily on inland waterways, and is most common on reservoirs, which often ban all engines except electric. So to reiterate, modern new technology two strokes such as the Evinrude E-Tec range along side the latest four stroke outboards motors meet the EU emission regulations and may be used throughout the E.U. by any user. e.&.o.e. ©  
EU 2006 Standard   EU 2006 Emissions Standards Label represents conformity to the EU emissions standards proposed by the Commission of the European Communities on 12th October 2000. IT IS THE ONLY EMISSION STANDARD THAT AFFECTS UK AND EU ENGINES. All other emission standards are irrelevant for the UK and the rest of the EU (for example EPA 2006, CARB 2004 /2008). The EU2006 standards will only affect the SUPPLY of NEW outboards for ‘RECREATIONAL’ use. By ‘recreational’, the regulators exclude engines for commercial registered vessels, safety boats and racing engines. This text only is only with regard to recreational engines. ALL engines sold PRIOR to the full implementation of the standards on the dates shown below, may continue to be used. Effectively, after 31st December 2006, any NEW spark ignition two stroke outboard motor which does not meet the EU 2006 standards, (basically conventional carburettor / E.F.I. 2-strokes) will cease to be imported / manufactured into the EU. However, any engines held in stock by EU importers or dealers, which have been tax paid, are exempt, in the same way as though they had been sold prior to the regulations. Equally, only spark ignition four stroke and compression ignition (diesel) outboards, which meet the regulations, may be sold from 31st December 2005, with the same exemption about stock units. It should be noted that the spark ignition four stroke and compression ignition engines are required to meet the regulations a year earlier than spark ignition 2-strokes. (For more details see "Emissions: The Truth") Unlike the EPA and CARB standards, the EU 2006 standard covers three constituents of exhaust emissions, and noise levels. The exhaust emissions included are nitrous oxide and hydrocarbons (as included in EPA & CARB standards) plus carbon monoxide. Consequently the EU 2006 standard is the most difficult to attain compared with EPA and CARB. Unlike the US standards that allow a percentage of ‘dirty’ engines to be sold, the EU 2006 standard affects EVERY NEW engine sold in the EU. The EU 2006 standard is also the only standard that also covers noise levels for outboards. It should be noted that the EU2006 standard also affects inboard engines in a similar manner to outboards. e.&.o.e. ©  
EPA 2006 (U.S.)   EPA 2006 Standards label shows compliance with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency exhaust emission standards. It covers nitrous oxide and hydrocarbon emissions. Conventional 2-strokes are unable to meet these standards. EPA standards are an indication of low emissions, but have no official status in the UK. e.&o.e. ©  
CARB 2004 / 2008 (U.S.)   CARB standards are an indication of low emissions, but have no official status in the UK or the EU. CARB 2004 Two Star label (Very Low Emissions) and CARB 2008 Three Star label (Ultra Low Emissions) represents compliance with the California Air Resources Board standards, which will be implemented in 2004 and 2008 respectively. These standards are very strict, with the two star CARB 2004 standards representing 20% lower emissions than the EPA 2006 standards whilst the ultra strict CARB 2008 standards, represented by the three star label, represents a phenomenal 65% reduction of nitrous oxide (NO) and hydrocarbon emissions compared to the EPA 2006 standards. Presently, the three star CARB 2008 standards have the lowest limits FOR THE GASES THEY REPRESENT, compared with EPA 2006 and EU 2006 standards. Please note that the EU 2006 standard also includes carbon monoxide (CO) and noise emissions. As the CARB standards do not measure CO, they are able to have a lower nitrous oxide limit as there is a direct relation between Nitrous oxide and carbon monoxide. If the output of one is lowered, the quantity of the other is raised. In the USA the regulators are not concerned with carbon monoxide (even though it is a lethal, odourless and colourless gas!) and thus have set the nitrous oxide limit extremely low. The effect of this is that although the engines may be adjusted to meet this limit, the carbon monoxide output level has increased dramatically. Consequently, the EU 2006 European standard is actually much more difficult to meet than the CARB standards. Compared to old 1998 limits, CARB 2008 limits are 90% lower! e.&.o.e. ©
