More power, less weight, and the legendary reliability of Yamaha.
The Yamaha F130 is a lightweight, high-performance 130HP four-stroke outboard designed to deliver excellent acceleration, strong mid-range torque and impressive fuel efficiency.
Powered by Yamaha's proven 1.8-litre, four-cylinder DOHC engine, the F130 offers an outstanding combination of performance and reliability without the additional weight of a larger-capacity outboard.
With electronic fuel injection, responsive throttle control and smooth four-stroke operation, the F130 is an excellent choice for aluminium fishing boats, fibreglass runabouts and recreational boats.
Whether you're repowering an existing vessel or fitting out a new boat, the Yamaha F130 delivers dependable performance for fishing and boating around Northland and the Bay of Islands.
Key Features
Powerful 1.8-Litre Four-Cylinder Engine
The 1832cc, 16-valve DOHC engine delivers responsive acceleration and strong mid-range performance. Larger intake and exhaust valves help improve engine breathing and efficiency throughout the RPM range.
Multi-Point Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)
Yamaha's electronic fuel injection system precisely controls fuel delivery, providing reliable starting, smooth running and efficient fuel consumption.
Electronic Throttle Valve
The F130 features an electronically operated throttle valve that optimises throttle response according to operating conditions.
Unlike Yamaha's digital electronic control models, the F130 uses conventional mechanical remote controls.
Lightweight Performance
With a dry weight starting at just 172kg, the F130 offers an excellent power-to-weight ratio.
This makes it particularly attractive for repowering applications where keeping transom weight down is important.
Variable Trolling Control
Perfect for fishing, Yamaha's variable trolling control allows engine speed to be adjusted from approximately 600 to 1,000 RPM in 50 RPM increments using a compatible Yamaha gauge.
35-Amp Alternator
The 12V 35A alternator provides charging power for onboard electronics, including fishfinders, GPS chartplotters and other electrical equipment.
Power Trim & Tilt
Yamaha's single-ram power trim and tilt system allows easy adjustment of engine trim to suit changing conditions and boat loading.
Shift Dampener System (SDS) Compatibility
When fitted with a compatible Yamaha SDS propeller, the F130 benefits from smoother, quieter gear engagement.
