Yamaha has released a significantly upgraded version of its four stroke 30hp model, the F30B. Based on the hugely successful F30A model, this latest offering from Yamaha is certain to delight Australian boaters who value fuel efficiency, low emissions and the very latest in outboard engine technology.

This new model is easily distinguished by the new graphics and the Yamaha tuning fork emblem mounted on the sleek cowling. Two model variants are available F30BEHTL and F30BETL – both engines feature electric start (E), power trim & tilt (T), long shaft (L); the difference is forward controls and tiller steer versions.
At the heart of the Yamaha F30B is a three cylinder in-line block with a displacement of 747 cm³. The low profile design and excellent power-to-weight ratio deliver optimum power for aluminium boaters, owners of RIBs and those seeking dependable auxiliary power.

The Yamaha F30B comes standard with electric starting. Shaft length is 20' while the choice of tiller steer or forward control models are also available. Furthermore, boaters will appreciate the power trim and tilt system.

The most significant system fitted under the cowl is Yamaha’s proven ECM – controlled multi-point electronic fuel injection system. Depending on speed and load, the ECM precisely adjusts the air/fuel mixture and ignition timing to ensure efficient and dependable combustion.

Overall Yamaha’s EFI system delivers sure fire starts every time. Regardless of temperature and atmospheric pressure, you depend on simple turn-key starts.

When up and running, boaters will experience exceptional performance thanks to the long air intake manifold which is responsible for delivering additional torque through the power range.

Low exhaust emissions have for many years been a benchmark of Yamaha four stroke outboards. The Yamaha F30B is no exception. This engine exceeds the 2006 USA EPA emission standards and meets the US CARB emission standards and EU marine exhaust emission regulations.

With the latest technology built into the Yamaha F30B, boaters will readily reap the benefits out on the water. At the fuel wharf, boaters will notice just how little fuel is used during a day on the water. Superior fuel efficiency has never been more important than it is in this era.

And whether under maximum power or trolling along the riverbank, the Yamaha F30B is a quiet and smooth operator. The variable trolling switch in the tiller handle allows the trolling speed to be adjusted between 650 rpm and 900 rpm in 50 rpm increments.

The Yamaha F30B will accept the optional advanced digital network gauges (on models with forward controls), a suite of electronic instrumentation that is widely acknowledged as the best in the industry. And for tiller steer models, the F30B is fitted with the large multi-function tiller handle with all the functions required for engine control mounted on the tiller handle.

Like all Yamaha outboards, the new Yamaha F30B incorporates a leading edge anti-corrosion system which provides exceptional protection of cooling passages and external components against saltwater and harsh UV rays. The freshwater flushing device is also standard.

When it comes time for service or routine maintenance, the YDIS (Yamaha Diagnostic System) is another great feature to help technicians determine the performance of the engine for quick and precise service work.
Yamaha outboards are available through an Australia-wide network of authorised Yamaha outboard dealers. All

Yamaha 4-stroke outboards are supported with a full four-year manufacturer’s warranty and all two-stroke outboards are backed by a three year warranty – standard conditions apply.

Models from the F30B range are:

F30BEHTL (B Series engine, electric start, tiller handle, power trim & tilt, long shaft)
F30BETL (B Series engine, electric start, power trim & tilt, long shaft)
