V-MAX SHO
Super High Output
Four Stroke

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 performance 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.

* 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
han the renowned V MAX Series 2.

* 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 Efficiency - proven ignition and fuel injection systems combine with an all-new intake system. The V MAX SHO burns an average of 12% less fuel than the direct injection V MAX Series 2.

* Smooth and Quiet Operation - A straighter-tracking high performance lower unit with 81% larger 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.
