Yamaha sure to rev your heart at 2016 Brisbane Boat Show

YAMAHA is particularly excited to exhibit the latest in outboard and rigging technology at this year’s Brisbane Boat Show.

Debuting for the first time in Queensland is Yamaha’s latest VMAX SHO models, with the new game-changing inline-four VF115 and VF150 joining the Australian range.  Also on debut in Brisbane is Yamaha’s new-addition F90 four-stroke, which is proving to be exceptionally popular with savvy boaters looking to extract the maximum performance from their 90hp-rated trailer boat.

On display across the show through Yamaha’s Queensland dealerships will be an array of Yamaha-powered locally built and imported boats. Powering a number of these boats is Yamaha’s all-new, lightweight F130A outboard, which will be positioned front and centre on the Yamaha display.

Complementing the new Yamaha outboards is a new selection of Yamaha-exclusive rigging. A new range of propellers dubbed the ‘Talon Series’ joins the exclusive Yamaha selection. This new propeller benefits from Yamaha’s exclusive shock and noise-reducing Shift Dampening System, which gives boaters a ‘clunk-free’ propeller option in either alloy or polished stainless steel. SDS propellers are now available on all Yamaha outboards from FT60 through to F350.

Yamaha is also exhibiting the all-new, all-in-one, high-definition, colour LCD gauge that relays real-time information from the outboard(s), fuel tanks and sensors, back to the helm. The new 6YC Command-Link Digital gauge is compatible with Yamaha’s complete EFI four-stroke range from F30-F350.
