V6 4.2 L
Yamaha’s award-winning V6 4.2-liter outboards have been offshore favorites for more than a decade. Initially, boaters were attracted to their power, efficiency and intelligent design. After years of proven performance, our V6 4.2-liters have become known for something perhaps even more valuable offshore—reliability. In fact, with legendary 96 percent reliability,** they’re one of the most trusted V6’s offshore.
Well, now these trusty outboards are turning heads again, with a fresh new look and new, integrated digital electric steering—making them even more responsive. Our V6 Offshore outboards have proven once again that even a trusted favorite can take an exciting turn.

Our 4.2-liter F300 is a reliable, offshore favorite—and it’s only getting better. It now features a fresh, new cowling design (with stern light if rigged with Helm Master® EX), new integrated digital electric steering*, rerouted exhaust for enhance reverse thrust and is available in Yamaha gray or pearlescent white. It’s destined to be a top choice offshore for years to come.
