After the first hour you bring the speed up and keep the boat under 3,000 RPMs. This speed will be just about on plane, and you DO NOT want to be full throttle. For the next 8 hours of run time run the boat at varying speeds and avoid running the boat at wide open throttle for more than 5 minutes.

When did the Yamaha F115 outboard come out?
The new Yamaha F115 four-stroke outboard should be ideal for powering small runabouts and fishing boats.

Is the Yamaha F115 compatible with the NEMA 2000?

The F115 can be mounted on 26-inch centers for twin-motor installations, and a counter-rotation model is available. This motor’s light weight will also make it attractive in all kinds of applications.
What is the SDS on a Yamaha F115?
Yamaha has developed an all-new lined of Talon three-blade aluminum propellers specifically for the new F115, and those props feature the Yamaha SDS ( Shift Dampener System ) hub, which quiets the “clunk” of gear engagement. Other Yamaha props will also fit on the F115, but will not offer the SDS feature.
