Yamaha F175Integrated Hydraulic Steering

Utilizing the same mounting footprint as their predecessor, Integrated Hydraulic Steering models can be installed by boat builders or dealers. Outboards equipped with Integrated Hydraulic Steering save space with fewer rigging components and offer precise non-powered control. 

Yamaha F175SHIFT DAMPENER SYSTEM (SDS™)

Yamaha's patent-pending Shift Dampener System (SDS™) greatly reduces the noise commonly associated with shifting gears. Using a special design and components, much of the force of shifting is absorbed, resulting in far quieter and smoother operation. The F175 comes with the necessary hardware to specify a Yamaha SDS™ propeller.

Yamaha F175VARIABLE TROLLING RPM SWITCH (VTS®)

Controlled by a Command Link® tachometer, the operator can adjust the engine's trolling speed from 650 to 900 rpm in 50-rpm increments. This helps provide precise and consistent trolling speeds in an array of conditions.

features and benefits

LightWeight & Compact

The 2.8-litre F175 weighs less than a 1.7-litre supercharged competitor, and since it's a naturally aspirated EFI engine, less complex. Its in-line four-cylinder design is more compact than competitive V6s, too.

Powerful

The all-new 2.8-litre F175 uses large intake and exhaust valves for quick response. The DOHC 16-valve powerhead also has a single throttle valve and Yamaha's long intake track for easy breathing. A knock sensor allows the engine to run at peak efficiency and performance at any rpm.

Versatile

A great outboard for a wide variety of boats, the F175 is available with digital electronic control (DEC) for those looking for the precision of digital throttle and shift.

Better Charging

With electrical output of 50 amps, the F175 produces plenty of power for keeping up with today's electronic accessories.

Convenient

The F175 runs on regular fuel (87 octane). It's also compatible with Yamaha's exclusive Y-COP® theft- deterrent system. Y-COP allows the user to disable the engine's ignition and fuel systems using an electronic key fob. The F175 also has popular features such as Yamaha's Variable Trolling RPM Switch (VTS®).

Smooth & Quiet

Yamaha's SDSTM (Shift Dampener System) for smoother, quieter, no clunky shifting. In addition, the outboard employs twin counterbalance shafts and our exclusive long span mounting system for vibration-free, quiet running.

Integrated Hydraulic Steering

Utilizing the same mounting footprint as their predecessor, Integrated Hydraulic Steering models can be installed by boat builders or dealers. Outboards equipped with Integrated Hydraulic Steering save space with fewer rigging components and offer precise non-powered control.

Yamaha Reliability

Based on proven Yamaha four-stroke, marine-specific architecture and years of solid performance, the F175 also uses Yamaha's Phaze FiveTM paint process, which includes the electro-deposition of anti-corrosive paint on both the outside and inside passages of the engine block.
