Introducing the all-new Yamaha V MAX SHO – this changes everything.
With class-leading 4.2 liters of displacement and game-changing Super High Output four-stroke outboard technology,
Yamaha's new V MAX SHO has absolutely unbelievable hole shot and acceleration - performance even two-strokes of the
same horsepower can't match - with equally-impressive top speed. Two-strokes of equivalent horsepower can't beat
it on weight, either. It provides astounding power and performance, complete with Yamaha's
signature four stroke smoothness, convenience, and reliability. The Yamaha V MAX SHO
represents the absolute leading edge in high-performance outboard technology,
purpose-designed and built as the ideal power for bass boats and in shore bay
and fl ats boats.
4.2 Liter Big-Bore V6 Displacement – using the fi rst marine application
of plasma-fused sleeveless cylinders, displacement is increased without
enlarging the outer diameter of the cylinder, resulting in an outboard with
the largest displacement in its class.
Lightest in Weight* – a full 34 pounds lighter than the V MAX Series 2
it replaces, no other production V6 bass outboard of equal horsepower is
lighter, including two-strokes. For details, see the chart inside.
Fastest Hole Shot / Acceleration – the naturally-aspirated, big-bore Yamaha
V MAX SHO 250 has the fastest hole shot / acceleration in its class – even faster
than the renowned V MAX Series 2. For details, check out the chart inside.
Remarkably Responsive – instant throttle response, especially in the mid-range,
for performance you can feel, with a top speed faster than a two stroke 250hp
V MAX Series 2 outboard.
Outstanding Fuel Effi ciency – proven ignition and fuel injection systems
combine with an all-new intake system. The V MAX SHO burns an average of
12 percent less fuel than the direct injection V MAX Series 2.
Smooth and Quiet Operation – A straighter-tracking high performance lower unit with larger, forward-mounted
water intakes is also standard. Cutting-edge Yamaha four stroke design and new technological advancements help
you quietly approach your quarry.
Ease of Maintenance and Lasting Value – advanced features like an ignition knock sensor and an easy to replace
spin-on oil fi lter help protect your in investment for years of trouble-free enjoyment.
Rugged Reliability – from its extensive Engine Warning and Protection Systems to the computerized Yamaha
Diagnostic System, the new V MAX SHO is purpose-built to Yamaha's exacting standards.
