MODELS:
Yamaha has successfully integrated its highly-acclaimed Command Link® Digital Electronic
Control system with its reliable and long-proven F250 outboard. Feature packed with all the
innovation, reliability, and long-term value that are synonymous with Yamaha, this new outboard
offers the versatility, power, and convenience today’s boaters demand.
CONVENIENCE AND CONTROL
From its plug-and-play type installation to the smooth feel created through electronic
control of all throttle and shift functions, Yamaha’s new F250B is the perfect blend
of power, convenience, and control. Features like built-in multiple engine
synchronization, adjustable throttle friction and neutral detents, and built-in
redundancy systems make it the ideal engine with ideal control.
PERFORMANCE
The Yamaha F250B is a proven marine powerhouse built upon a
compact and lightweight 60-degree, 3.3 iter (204 c.i.) block. Its Variable
Camshaft Timing dramatically increases low and mid-range torque, for
surprising holeshot and mid-range throttle capabilities. A speciallydesigned air intake system; coupled with proven Yamaha multi-point
electronic fuel injection; delivers, easy, instant starts, fast acceleration,
and maximum top end speed. An electronically-controlled single throttle
valve feeds individual long intake tracks, which dramatically improves hole
shot, acceleration, and mid-range performance. And, because it’s a Yamaha
four stroke outboard, you know it’s clean, quiet, smooth, and economical.

RELIABILITY/DURABILITY
Yamaha has taken the new F250B to the next level of reliability and durability,
by upgrading its corrosion protection package. Sharing the same special
powerhead painting process with its big brother, the Yamaha F350, now the
inside as well as the outside of the powerhead is protected with special
anti-corrosion paint using an advanced “electro-deposited” process. This helps
ensure longer engine life, even in the harshest environments, which means
more years of use, enjoyment, and peace of mind.
VALUE
Enhanced reliability. Exceptionally smooth and quiet performance. Outstanding fuel
economy. Maximum performance and convenience. All combine to make the new
Yamaha F250B an incredibly powerful value, both now and in the years ahead.

Smooth, Reliable Shifting and Throttle
Yamaha’s new Command Link Digital Electronic Control systems
are electronically-actuated, meaning there are no cables physically
moving. This greatly reduces shifting and throttle effort by
eliminating common cable friction. All Command Link Digital
Electronic Controls have adjustable throttle lever friction and
shifting detents, and feature critical system redundancy for
added reliability.
Precise Trolling Control
By just pressing a button on the Command Link tachometer,
the operator can adjust the engine’s trolling speed from
600 ~ 1000 rpm, in 50-rpm increments. This helps provide
precise and consistent trolling speeds in a wide array
of conditions.
CONVENIENCE AND CONTROL
Choice of Control Style
Command Link Digital Electronic Controls come in a variety of
styles, including the new 6X7 concealed side-mount. They’re
also available in binnacle style for single, twin, and triple engine
applications; and all feature smooth, virtually effortless shifting
and throttle functions.
Automatic Engine Synchronization
Command Link Digital Electronic Controls feature
automatic engine sychronization in twin and triple
engine confi gurations during normal cruise conditions.
It’s not only convenient, it helps maximize effi ciency and
running performance.

CONVENIENCE AND CONTROL
Easy Dual Station Control
Second Station
Command Link Digital Electronic Controls make dual station
installations easy and conveninent to use. They feature
‘plug-’n’-play’ water-resistant connections and simple-to-use
station selector switches and, since there’s no conventional
remote control cables, shifting and throttle functions are
a breeze.
Main Station
More Information
Command Link gauges offer a wealth of information to the
operator in order to help provide effi cient and effective
operation. There’s even a combination Speedometer and
Fuel Management Gauge, to help conserve valuable
dash space.
Advanced Technology
All F250B models are equipped with an Engine Control
Module that interfaces with Yamaha Diagnostic System
software. This provides a view of selected past and current
running conditions, to help technicians provide a complete
and accurate diagnosis.
Smooth and Quiet
Engine exhaust is routed through a maze before exiting
above the waterline through the idle exhaust relief outlet,
for unbelieveably smooth and quiet operation.

Reliable and Responsive
Individual intake and exhaust camshafts provide more
precise valve timing control and have less moving parts
than conventional push rod systems for increased reliability.
This superior design also allows for use of 4 valves per
cylinder which exchange intake and exhaust gases more
effi ciently for responsive power and increased fuel economy.
Hole Shot and Mid-Range Punch
Yamaha’s variable camshaft timing system advances and
retards the angle of the intake camshaft to dramatically
increase power and throttle response in the low- and
mid-rpm ranges. This gives the engine substantially greater
torque between 2000 ~ 3500 RPM to provide excellent
power to plane.
POWERFUL PERFORMANCE
Fuel Effi ciency
Six individual compact electronic fuel injectors deliver the
exact amount of fuel needed for optimum performance and
economy. Controlled by the Engine Control Module via input
from an array of on-engine sensors, their location just above
the intake valves enhances fuel atomization, resulting in
more effi cient combustion.
Precise Throttle Control
All air entering the engine block of the F250B is routed
through a single electronically-controlled throttle valve,
to ensure the precise amount of air necessary for optimum
power and fuel effi ciency. The air silencer box reduces
intake noise and air turbulence for smooth, quiet operation.

RUGGED RELIABILITY
Long Term Value
Yamaha improved their legendary Ultimate Corrosion Protection
System for the F250B. Yamaha’s proprietary alloys, ACP-221
paint process, and freshwater fl ush device are just the start.
Multiple sacrifi cial anodes in and on the power head, mid-section,
and lower unit; a special electro-deposited paint process that
coats both the entire outside and the inside passages of the block
and cylinder heads; and a specially-painted and treated exhaust
system means better long-term protection and maximum value.
Controlled Operating Termperature
The F250B comes standard with dual pairs of water inlets,
for increased cooling effi ciency. Located on the front and
both sides of the lower unit, each pair of pick-ups operate
independently of each other to provide proper water fl ow
in a wide variety of applications and conditions.
Internal Protection from the Elements
The F250B features a proven cowling drain system, to easily
and effi ciently drain away any water that enters the cowling
during normal engine operation. Incoming air is routed through
a labyrinth of passages that trap and drain water before it enters
the engine’s intake, for maximum reliability.
Cleaner Fuel
All F250B outboards feature a large, on-engine
water separating fuel fi lter with a water sensor. Used in
conjunction with Yamaha’s 10-Micron Water Separating
Fuel Filter, it helps separate water and contaminants from
the fuel before they can reach the outboard’s other fi lters
and fuel injectors.
