F70

Mid-Range

Yamaha proudly announces a new addition to its mid-range four stroke stable; the F70. Using advanced features and
technology to make it extremely light yet very powerful, it is the ideal outboard for a myriad of lightweight fi shing boats
and an outstanding alternative to Yamaha’s soon-to-be-retired 90hp two stroke (effective 12-31-2009).

Featuring the lightest weight and highest horsepower-per-liter-of-displacement in the 70hp class, the Yamaha F70
takes advantage of the leading edge of technology while maintaining the fuel-effi cient, smooth, and quiet operation
Yamaha four strokes are known for. And it has benefi ts like Yamaha’s available Multifunction Tiller Handle or our
Command Link® System, which let you harness its Variable Trolling RPM capability.

The new Yamaha F70. Big-league technology in a very light weight,
fuel effi cient outboard.

Best-in-Class Horsepower-per-Liter – advanced 16-valve, single

overhead camshaft (SOHC), in-line 4 cylinder engine design.

Lightest Weight In Class – at 260 pounds, it’s lighter than all four stroke

and two stroke outboards of similar horsepower.*

Remarkably Responsive – a single throttle valve works in concert

with a tuned, long track intake system and high-ratio gearcase.

Outstanding Fuel Effi ciency – Yamaha’s Multi-point Electronic Fuel

Injection System and dependable ECM microcomputer engine control.

Proven Reliability – designed, built, and extensively tested to Yamaha’s

stringent standards for reliability.

Smooth, Dependable Mechanical Shifting and Throttle – works with all

Yamaha binnacle and most side-mount mechanical control boxes.

Operator Convenience –compatible with conventional analog or optional

Command Link gauges, for even more up-to-the-instant information.

Quiet, Smooth Operation – Yamaha’s labyrinth exhaust and Long-Span

Mounting System combines with a stylish yet functional exterior.

Ease of Service and Lasting Value – computerized Yamaha Diagnostic

System (YDIS), Ultimate Corrosion Protection System, and water-draining
air intake cowling.

Peace of Mind – advanced engine warning and protection system and

standard three year pleasure or government limited warranty.
