Key Features

4.2-Litre V6 Performance

The 4169cc, 24-valve DOHC V6 features Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT), delivering strong low- and mid-range torque, responsive acceleration and excellent performance under load.

Digital Electronic Control (DEC)

Yamaha's drive-by-wire throttle and shift system eliminates traditional mechanical control cables, providing smooth, precise engine operation.

The digital control system also offers convenient features such as Speed Control, Pattern Shift and Neutral Hold.

Thrust Enhancing Reverse Exhaust (TERE)

Yamaha's innovative reverse exhaust system redirects exhaust gases away from the propeller at low speeds, improving propeller grip and reverse thrust.

This is particularly useful when docking, manoeuvring around marinas or backing down on a fish.

TotalTilt™ with Tilt Limiter

Yamaha's TotalTilt system allows the outboard to tilt automatically up or down with a double press of the trim switch.

An integrated tilt limiter helps prevent the engine from contacting bait boards or other obstructions.

Advanced Electronic Fuel Injection

Yamaha's EFI system works alongside its electronic engine management technology to optimise fuel delivery, throttle response and efficiency.

High-Output 70-Amp Alternator

A 70-amp alternator provides substantial charging capacity to support batteries and modern onboard electronics, including fishfinders, chartplotters and other electrical equipment.

25-Inch Extra-Long Shaft

The F250XCB features a 25-inch shaft configuration, making it suitable for a wide range of larger trailer boats, hardtops and offshore fishing vessels.
