This powerful V6 takes everything boat owners love about Yamaha performance and wraps it in XTO-inspired sophistication. The combination of a long intake manifold, integrated exhaust, advanced EFI control, and VCT creates strong torque and a smooth, relentless climb through the rpm range. It’s the kind of performance that turns open water into an opportunity.

A meticulously refined gearcase design with optimised tooth geometry and improved oil flow delivers cooler operation, more durable components, and long-term reliability. Reduced surface pressure extends service life and gives you the mechanical confidence that only Yamaha can deliver.
Complex manoeuvres, simplified. Helm Master® EX transforms docking, positioning, and low-speed handling into smooth, confidence-inspiring experiences, with joystick control and intelligent integration that make tight spaces feel far more manageable.
Fuel is delivered with precise accuracy. Yamaha’s EFI system ensures smooth starts, consistent acceleration, and excellent efficiency—providing reliable performance with less hassle and fewer stops for refuelling.
Steering that feels surprisingly effortless. DES delivers smooth, intuitive steering without pumps, hoses, or hydraulic complications—just clean rigging, direct response, and steering that stays smooth and responsive long after the novelty has worn off.
Say goodbye to cables and hello to total, effortless control. Drive-by-wire replaces mechanical linkages with smooth digital control, delivering smoother shifting, better throttle response, and easy synchronisation between multiple engines. It’s the difference between simply “driving” and truly “mastering” the boat.
Double tap. Full tilt. With TotalTilt™, you can fully tilt the engine up and down from any position, with an integrated warning signal and tilt limiter for added peace of mind. No cramped fingers. No need to lean over the transom as if you’ve dropped something.
