Power your boat with the Yamaha F60 60HP Outboard Motor, designed to deliver responsive acceleration, efficient operation, dependable power, and excellent versatility for fishing and recreational boating.
The Yamaha F60 features a 1.0-liter, four-cylinder engine with electronic fuel injection and a single-overhead-camshaft design. Its streamlined intake system is engineered to support responsive power delivery while maintaining the compact dimensions associated with Yamaha’s midrange outboard family.
The standard F60 uses a 20-inch shaft, weighs approximately 247 pounds, and features a 16-amp alternator. Depending on the selected model and rigging, the F60 can support optional Variable Trolling RPM functionality, allowing anglers to adjust engine speed for slow-speed fishing.
For customers with specialized boat requirements, Yamaha also offers the T60 High-Thrust model for applications requiring additional thrust and the F60 Jet Drive for compatible shallow-water applications. The F60 Jet Drive produces 40 horsepower at the jet pump nozzle, so it should be evaluated separately from the standard propeller-driven F60.
Available finishes depend on the exact model and market. The verified U.S. list includes Yamaha Gray for the standard F60 and Matte Brown as an additional color configuration.
The Yamaha F60 60HP Outboard is a practical choice for compatible aluminum fishing boats, small center consoles, skiffs, recreational vessels, and other craft designed for 60HP propulsion.

Why Choose the Yamaha F60 60HP?
The Yamaha F60 60HP Outboard Motor is designed for boat owners seeking reliable midrange power, efficient fuel delivery, and convenient operation.
Its 1.0-liter four-cylinder engine delivers 60 horsepower while keeping the overall engine package relatively lightweight. Electronic fuel injection helps manage fuel delivery, while the 16-amp alternator supplies charging capacity for compatible batteries and onboard accessories.
The F60 is also available in configurations suited to different boating requirements. The standard propeller-driven model provides conventional outboard propulsion, the T60 High Thrust provides a specialized thrust-oriented setup, and the F60 Jet Drive offers jet propulsion for compatible applications.
Customers should select the configuration according to their boat, intended operating environment, control system, and installation requirements.
1.0-Liter Four-Cylinder EFI Engine
The Yamaha F60 features a 1.0-liter inline-four engine with electronic fuel injection.
Its single-overhead-camshaft design and intake system are engineered to deliver responsive power for compatible fishing and recreational boats.
Electronic fuel injection helps manage fuel delivery during starting and operation. Owners should follow Yamaha’s recommended fuel requirements, service intervals, and operating instructions.
Lightweight 60HP Performance
The standard Yamaha F60 Midrange weighs approximately 247 pounds.
Its combination of 60 horsepower and relatively lightweight construction makes it a useful option for compatible boats where engine weight and balance are important.
Actual performance depends on the vessel’s hull design, propeller selection, passenger and equipment load, water conditions, and engine setup.
20-Inch Shaft Configuration
The Yamaha F60 standard model features a 20-inch shaft.
Selecting the correct shaft length is important for proper mounting height and engine performance. Customers should verify their boat’s transom height and manufacturer’s recommended shaft length before purchase.
The F60 Jet Drive is a separate configuration designed for a 25-inch transom, so buyers should not assume its mounting arrangement is the same as the standard F60.
16-Amp Charging System
The Yamaha F60 features a 16-amp alternator output at wide-open throttle.
This charging capacity helps support the starting battery and compatible onboard electrical equipment. Actual charging output depends on engine speed and electrical load.
The charging system can be useful for fishing boats equipped with navigation instruments, fish finders, radios, lighting, and other marine accessories.
Optional Variable Trolling RPM
The Variable Trolling RPM Switch (VTS) may be available depending on the selected gauge, control system, and rigging configuration.
This feature can help anglers make controlled changes to engine speed when trolling. Customers should confirm the required switch, gauge, and compatible equipment before selecting this option.
Standard F60 – Yamaha Gray or Matte Brown
The standard F60 is available in verified U.S. configurations including:
F60LC – Yamaha Gray: Standard 60HP propeller-driven model with a 20-inch shaft, remote mechanical controls, and power trim and tilt.
F60LC3 – Matte Brown: Alternative finish with the same general 60HP midrange configuration.
Pearl White may be available in other markets or through other model-year configurations, but it is not separately priced in the official U.S. price list used for this listing. Confirm the exact model code and availability before advertising that option.
T60 High-Thrust Alternative
The Yamaha T60 High Thrust is designed for boats and applications requiring additional thrust rather than the standard F60 configuration.
The T60 uses a high-thrust lower unit and larger-diameter, low-pitch propeller arrangement. Yamaha highlights its suitability for applications such as heavier pontoon boats and sailboats. <Cite refs={[“turn525937search0″,”turn525937search3”]}/>
The listed T60LC configuration has a 20-inch shaft, remote mechanical controls, power trim and tilt, and a High-Thrust lower unit.
Customers should verify that this configuration is appropriate for the vessel’s size, load, mounting requirements, and intended use.
F60 Jet Drive Alternative
The Yamaha F60 Jet Drive provides jet propulsion for compatible shallow-water applications.
Unlike the standard propeller-driven F60, the jet-drive model produces 40 horsepower at the pump nozzle and is designed for vessels configured for jet propulsion. Yamaha lists the F60 Jet Drive at approximately 257 pounds, including the jet pump assembly, with power trim and tilt and a 25-inch transom configuration. <Cite refs={[“turn525937search4”]}/>
This makes the jet-drive model a distinct alternative rather than a direct replacement for every standard F60 installation. Customers should confirm hull compatibility, mounting requirements, and the intended operating environment before purchase.
Remote Controls and Power Trim & Tilt
The standard Yamaha F60LC is listed with remote mechanical controls and power trim and tilt.
Remote controls allow operation from a compatible helm, while power trim and tilt enables convenient adjustment of the engine’s position during operation, launching, and storage.
Customers should confirm the specific control box, cables, gauges, steering equipment, wiring, propeller, and additional rigging requirements before installation.
Ideal Applications
This Yamaha F60 60HP Outboard Motor may be suitable for compatible:
Aluminum fishing boats, small center consoles, skiffs, recreational fishing boats, utility vessels, and other craft designed for a 60HP propeller-driven outboard.
The T60 High-Thrust version may be appropriate for compatible heavy-load applications, while the F60 Jet Drive is intended for vessels designed specifically for jet propulsion.
Always verify the vessel manufacturer’s horsepower rating, shaft requirements, steering configuration, controls, mounting specifications, and propulsion type before purchasing.
