Setting New Expectations For Power Portable

PORTABLE FOUR STROKES
Yamaha’s high-powered portables are redefining the expectations for portable horsepower, from the F15 all the way to the NMMA® Innovation Award-winning F25. Their single-overhead-camshaft, two-cylinder designs create power to weight that’s not only eye-opening—but in the case of the F25, it’s also class-leading and category jumping. In fact, the Yamaha’s 25 hp is the lightest 25 on the water—two stroke or four stroke. Like its F15 and F20 siblings, the F25 has signature portable advantages like an oil-retention system for leak-free, on-side storage capability, carry handles and resting pads. So whether you’re headed duck hunting with a jon boat or on the way to a lake cottage and your 14-foot aluminum boat, your Yamaha portable’s ready to go.

THE OUTSTANDING, 25 HP PORTABLE
Yamaha’s F25 is still the lightest 25-horsepower outboard on the water—two stroke or four stroke. Its portable design and class-leading power-to-weight mean 25 horses can boldly go where they’ve never gone before. Jons. 14-foot aluminum fishing boats. The bed of your truck.
POWER & PERFORMANCE

Efficient Power
The F25, F20 and F15 all feature a two-valve-per-cylinder, single-overhead-camshaft design that provides better breathing and more power.

Optimum Performance
An optimally balanced crankshaft and labyrinth exhaust deliver smooth power, while Microcomputer Ignition adjusts timing to maintain maximum engine performance, economy and power under all conditions

Streamlined Intake
An intake silencer and manifold on the F20 and F15 result in more direct airflow, for minimum noise and maximum power.

Responsive Acceleration
An acceleration pump on the F20 and F15 gives the engine the fuel it needs--when it needs it--like during rapid throttle advance. This ensures responsive acceleration

OPTIMAL OPERATION

Convenience & Control
MAX MANEUVERABILITY
A 45-degree steering angle in each direction means great maneuvering potential.
EASY ENGINE FLUSHING
A Freshwater Flush Device allows you to flush the engine without running it, for added convenience and extended engine life.
PORTABILITY AND STORAGE
Incredible light weights, built-in resting pads and carry handles, an easy oil retention system and an optional folding tiller handle, allow for easy carrying and on-side storage without oil leakage or cowling scuffs.
