Yep, me too. Want to see some real results first.

They will be available in january 2010. Already have some ideas to add more hp Putting one on a Stroker to lay down a big number

Big(ger) block sounds real good for bigger boats. I'll loan you my 201 Evo for some good numbers, then trade my 300 phase 3 to you........

Not to stir the pot, but does any one else think that that thing is almost as ugly as a Verado?

[reelman]

Stats and such look impressive but jury is out until Pros run them when the $$$ is on the table for a half year...then, let the buying really begin...with the same 4.2 block (I guess)...this could mean ECU upgrade party for guys with 200s like me...hope so...

[flubyu]

To me, that looks 100% better than the Verado...(which in my opinion, is the ugliest outboard ever built) and I'm a Merc guy!!

[Darth VMAX]

+1

I agree 1,00000%. The Yamaha looks like a REAL outboard. That Verado makes me throw up a little in my mouth it is so UGLY

Can't wait to see the results.

[BalsaBee]

I think the motor looks great but the YAMAHA stickers on the side need to be larger and the VMAX smaller.

[HaulinBass]

Wayne, I would like to be along for the test rides!!!!!!

My ex mother in law ain't even that ugly.

[Musky Mike]

Wayne, you'll hop up these, but not my F150....

[Darth VMAX]

IMO

I don't see a big market for a hopped up inline 4 cyl motor. Most F150's I see ae on pontoon and tin boats anyways. An I4 doesn't lend itself for much compared to a V6 (my opinion). You want a hopped up 150 get a V6 2-Stroke.

[reelman]

Call me a skeptic...but I truly think (not feel) that the political-economic-energy stream the next decade will make the 150F the hottest and most popular engine for all makers...also the top hp choice of many with many more going back to those 115Fs and a tin boat.

Of course, I want to be very very wrong.

Well i went from a 3.1L 200 on a 19' champ down to a 17'xpress with a 90 because i got tired of sending my money to those greedy oil basterds and have been VERY happy with my new little rig.I don't tourny fish hardly at all so that's not a problem for me.My last 2 fishing trips costed aprox.$7.50 in fuel!!!(3 gal) and i ran a pretty good distance. In regards to an i 4 lending itself to performance,it will gain just like a V6 will. Dont guess you would like to drag your car against a mustang with a 2.0 4 cyl pinto motor would ya?????Got a good friend that would love to run ya!!! Oh, it only runs 9.80's in a quarter mile and is well over 500 rear wheel hp.
