2025 Yamaha Outboards VF175 VMAX SHO
Need to power something with a 20-inch transom and need more than 150 horsepower? Do you need very high performance and light weight along with all the benefits of four-stroke power, including clean, quiet operation and great fuel efficiency? The Yamaha V MAX SHO 175 is the solution with all the benefits you need!
Features may include:
SMOOTH & EFFICIENT- The VF175 is super smooth and powerful, thanks to advanced double overhead cams, four valves per cylinder and counterbalance shafts. It's also extremely fuel efficient, delivering 30-to-40 per cent better fuel efficiency than a carbureted two stroke.
 
- Efficient use of space is another benefit. The V MAX SHO 175 does not require carrying two-stroke oil. There's no need for an oil tank, which means more room for batteries, tackle or storage in the boat.
 
- Thanks to mechanical control, the outboard offers easy rigging. You can equip it with your choice of analog, 6Y5 digital or Command Link® gauges.
 
- With proven, Yamaha four-stroke, marine-specific architecture, the V MAX SHO 175 will provide years of reliability.
 
- Like its siblings - the V MAX SHO 115, V MAX SHO 150, V MAX SHO 200, V MAX SHO 225 andV MAX SHO 250 - the V MAX SHO 175 has powerful good looks with a paint scheme that looks like nothing else on the water.
 
- The V MAX SHO 175 is compatible with Yamaha's variable trolling RPM switch (VTS), which allows anglers to adjust the trolling speed in 50 RPM increments from 650 to 900 RPM using a Yamaha Command Link® gauge.
