Yamaha F150JC Outboard Motor

25-Inch Shaft | Mechanical Control | Electric Start | Power Trim & Tilt | Gray

The Yamaha F150JC is a straightforward, dependable 150HP outboard for boaters who want solid performance without going digital. With a 25-inch shaft, mechanical throttle and shift, and power trim & tilt, it’s a strong match for offshore center consoles, bay boats, and mixed-use fishing rigs. The F150 family has a long reputation for reliability, and this version stays true to that—easy to rig, easy to run, and built to last.

Under the cowling is Yamaha’s 2.8-liter inline-four with EFI, a platform known for quick starts, smooth throttle response, and good fuel economy. The Gray marine finish and corrosion protection help it stand up to both freshwater and saltwater use, even for boaters who rack up a lot of hours each season.
