Yamaha 150HP | VF150LA V MAX SHO

Low-end torque is the point of the Yamaha VF150LA V MAX SHO, a 150 hp four-cylinder four-stroke carrying a 20-inch shaft, remote mechanical throttle and shift, and electric start. New, it weighs 480 lbs and draws fuel through EFI across 2785cc. Who it suits The SHO line favors acceleration and low-speed pulling power over outright top-end efficiency, which matters most for boats that spend time getting up on plane heavily loaded, or that need responsive throttle at low speed around docks and in tight quarters. It is built for console steering rather than tiller control. Before you order This engine's shaft runs 20 inches, a figure set at the factory, so put the actual transom height up against it before ordering rather than after. Remote mechanical throttle and shift point this motor at a console-rigged boat, so confirm the existing cables and controls are compatible before ordering. Running a V MAX SHO Expect a stronger push off idle than a standard-output engine of similar displacement, which is most noticeable getting a loaded boat onto plane rather than at a steady cruise.
