New Yamaha VF115XA 115hp V Max Sho Outboard Engine

The I-4 V MAX SHO 115 is Yamaha’s fastest 115-hp four stroke, ever, with a top speed of nearly 51 mph.* On top of its impressive speed, it features tech unheard of in its class, including a long-track intake system, free-flow exhaust and knock sensor. Yamaha expands the successful V MAX SHO family to include the 115-horsepower segment – where smaller boats and other craft play. And it’s every bit a V MAX SHO, compact, lightweight and capable of performance typically associated with two strokes, but with the convenience and quiet of a four stroke. Who could want more?
