Yamaha F150LD 150HP Outboard Motor - 20" Shaft
The Yamaha F150LD is a versatile 150-horsepower outboard built for boats that need strong, reliable performance without the complexity of digital controls. With a 20-inch shaft and Yamaha's proven mechanical throttle and shift system, it's a great match for bay boats, center consoles, and all-around family or fishing rigs that run inshore or nearshore waters. The F150 platform has a long reputation for durability, and this model sticks to that formula with simple rigging, easy operation, and dependable day-to-day performance.
Powered by a 2.8-liter inline-four with EFI, the F150LD offers crisp acceleration, smooth throttle feel, and excellent fuel economy. Yamaha's Gray marine finish, combined with corrosion-resistant hardware, makes it equally comfortable in saltwater or freshwater environments.
