The F200 has arrived. Lightweight and compact this incredibly slender outboard is just right for so many different kinds of boats: centre consoles, pontoons, sport boats, bay and flats boats, deep V aluminum, and fish & ski, just to name a few!
Outstanding power
The 2.8-litre, 16-valve DOHC powerhead breathes easy and responds quickly. Its valve train design is sophisticated, yet proven by millions of hours of use. The F200 has the most favourable power-to weight ratio of any four-stroke 200-hp outboard.
Acceleration
The F200 is equipped with Yamaha’s (VCT) Variable Camshaft Timing System, which helps deliver quick acceleration and an increase in torque in the 2,000 to 3,500 rpm range.
Versatility for Repower
The F200 has many repower possibilities. It’s a great replacement for older two-strokes. Not only is it light, but it’s narrow, at only 21.6-inch. It also has 26-inch mounting centres allowing it to fit a multitude of boat applications.
LightWeight & Compact
The F200 is the lightest 200-hp four stroke available. It is up to 119 lbs lighter than Yamaha's V6 F200. It weighs just 14 pounds more than Yamaha's two-stroke 200 HPDI outboard.
Acceleration
Like its Yamaha V6 Offshore siblings, the four-cylinder F200 is equipped with Yamaha's (VCT) Variable Camshaft Timing System, which helps the outboard deliver quick acceleration and a strong midrange punch.
Powerful
The 2.8-litre, 16-valve DOHC powerhead breathes easy and responds quickly. Its valve train design is sophisticated, yet proven by millions of hours of use. The F200 has the most favourable power-to-weight ratio of any four-stroke 200-hp outboard.
Efficiency
It's normally aspirated for less complexity and better fuel economy. Some competitor's outboards require 92 octane fuel to develop 200 hp. The F200 runs best on 89 octane.
Versatile
The F200 is available with either digital electronic control or mechanical control. In addition, the F200 is just right for so many different kinds of boats: centre consoles, pontoons, sport boats, bay and flats boats, deep V aluminum, and fish & ski, just to name a few.
Better Charging
A powerful 50-amp alternator offers a 13 percent increase in charging power compared to Yamaha's V6 F200.
Better Fishing
The F200 has popular features such as Yamaha's Variable Trolling RPM Switch (VTS®).
Control
Models are available with either digital electronic control or mechanical control. Models with digital electronic control are compatible with Yamaha Command Link Plus®, rigging system and hardware for the utmost in control. All F200 models can be rigged to external NME A 2000® compatible displays or analog gauges using a gateway device. Both versions of the outboard are Y-COP® compatible.
Quiet
Yamaha's SDSTM (Shift Dampener System) propeller hardware comes standard with the F200 for smoother, quieter, no clunk shifting. In addition, the outboard employs counterbalance shafts for vibration-free, quite running.
Yamaha Reliability
Based on proven Yamaha four-stroke, marine-specific architecture and years of solid performance.
