F15
For big engine performance, delivered in a small engine package, you can’t go past Yamaha’s F15 outboard. This two-cylinder, 362cc, four-stroke outboard is extremely fuel efficient, while producing a powerful and smooth-riding all-round performance. This engine includes Yamaha’s PrimeStartTM, which delivers quick and efficient starting in all climatic conditions. While the manual start models include an Auto Decompression feature which makes pull starting easier. Other features include a Shallow Water Drive System which allows safe operation in shallow waters and a high out-put alternator to ensure adequate power supply to run all your electronics.
Technical Specification
Yamaha Outboard Tech Yamaha offers a range of rigging options to suit every boat. Check out the full suite of controls, gauges, switches, props and other technologies, plus outboard performance data.
F15 Performance Data Reports We take out the guess work in buying a new outboard, by rigorously testing our engines on Australia's most popular boat brands. See how the F15 performs for acceleration, fuel economy and top-end speed on your favourite boat.
Ergonomic Carry and Control Handles Large comfortable grips located on the front and back of the engine make carrying, mounting and removing the engine easier. The tiller handle folds neatly back to make the engine even more compact for carrying and storage.
Easy Start Decompression Device For easy pull starting, these engines feature an auto decompression device fitted to the camshaft. This system releases pressure in the cylinder when the manual pull-start is engaged, allowing for light and convenient pull starting.
362cc Two-Cylinder Single The four-valve, two-cylinder, single overhead camshaft delivers sufficient torque from low to mid speed ranges, for a quick response and smooth operation.
Strong Tiller Handle Engine operation is made easy with the sturdy tiller handle which includes a large front shift, bigger throttle grip, a stop switch and for power trim models, a convenient PT switch.
Anti-Corrosion Paint System Yamaha engines are known for their durability and high re-sale value. Part of this lies in the anti-corrosion protection. A unique YDC-30 aluminium alloy and 5-stage exterior paint coating process protects the engine's exterior parts, while high-quality, marine-grade stainless steel componentry is used through-out.
Prime Start Yamaha's Prime Start™ makes starting as easy as starting a car. It allows the engine to be started cold by automatically controlling the engine ‘warming up’ process - eliminating the need for a conventional choke and the need to ‘warm up’ your engine by revving it in neutral.
Manual Tilt Shallow Water Drive This engine features a three-step shallow water drive system, which is extremely useful for tackling Australia’s shallow rivers, estuaries, creeks and when coming to shore.
Labyrinth Exhaust System Yamaha’s proven labyrinth exhaust system reduces engine noise at low RPM and idle. A water sealed outer wall around the exhaust muffler effectively reduces exhaust tone, for whisper quiet operation and enhances cooling, which protects the exhaust system against corrosion.
High-Output Alternator A 12 Volt 10 Amp high-output alternator ensures that power is always available to start the engine, even after long periods of idling or running at low revs. This provides extra starting power and delivers sufficient power to run a wide array of on-board electronic devices.
Fresh Water Flushing System Simply connect a hose to the easy access connector to flush salt and dirt from the outboard, without having to run the engine. Flushing the engine after each usage reduces corrosion and extends the engines life.
