A
triumph of outboard innovation that began with a singular
resolve: to create a four stroke that would perform
outstandingly on today's V6-powered single- and twin-engine
boats. The first outboard to combine the clean,
quiet, economical performance
of a four stroke with jaw-dropping V6 acceleration
and top-end speed.
The
Yamaha F225 delivers a kick in the pants at the mere
touch of the throttle - at any speed. But along with
all that power, we had another prerequisite. It had
to be extraordinarily lightweight
and compact.
So we designed a sleek new 60ƒ V-block, routing the
exhaust in-bank to save space. Yamaha engineers collaborated
with boat dealers and builders to establish the consummate
shape, centerline, weight distribution and rigging
specifications.
For
maximum power and fuel efficiency, we gave
it a 24-Valve Double Overhead Cam, and Ram-Charge
Manifold Fuel Injection, using six individual throttle
valves. We made it so quiet and smooth running
at trolling speeds that you'll swear you can hear
your line whispering through the water. We packed
it with so many new cutting-edge design features,
its awards for innovation come as no surprise. It's
a winner with the environment too, exceeding the Federal
EPA emission requirements for 2006 and earning a California
C.A.R.B. two-star rating for very low emissions.
The
V6 four stroke you've been waiting for is waiting
for you at your Yamaha dealer today.
