MSRP $3310.00. My jon boat has been long overdue for an outboard upgrade. My 2016 Yamaha 9.9 pushes my 14 foot jon boat with ease at 22 mph when its just me, and a small amount of fishing gear. However, when a client is in the boat and I have my 26 gallon live well full of water and threadfin shad, the boat can only manage about 10 mph at best. That simply will not do. I'm expecting 30 mph with this new engine based off of results other anglers have had with similar setups. If I can manage at least 25 mph with a client and a full bait well, I will be ecstatic.

FAN-tastic video and incredibly helpful! Thank you for taking the time to prepare such a detailed video. I purchased a new F25LMHC motor from an on-line merchant just this past week, and it was delivered here 20-minutes after I watched this helpful video this very morning. It helped me to feel more secure about the external packaging, and whether the motor that was delivered, was in-fact previously unopened and brand new. And your pointers on new motor prep was just an added bonus! Thanks again. However, like you, mine did not include a fuel tank either, and yet most other unboxing videos showed a red plastic fuel tank enclosed along with the motor in the packaging, and that's a bit frustrating, since those tanks are $135+.

[@GordyjSlavjanin]

Thank you so much for this video! I cannot express enough how useful your video is. I've been asking in chandleries whether this motor is portable or not. Some told me that it is, depending on how strong the user is. Others told me that it definitely isn't portable at all, and even advised me not to buy it if it isn't going to be mounted on the transom permanently. And thanks to you, sir, I KNOW a single person can carry it around quite comfortably. As someone pointed it already, this is currently the only video on YT showing the evidence that it is portable. Well done!

For everyone asking, the MSRP on this outboard is $3310.00. This is the basic model. No power trim, no electric start. You have to order directly from a Yamaha dealer and pick it up from them. You cannot just buy a Yamaha outboard online and have it get shipped to you.

For a fabulous boating trip, take 2-4 weeks and travel the great Trent/Severn waterway system in Ontario, Canada. Starting from Picton on the eastern end of Lake Ontario, you can go through numerous lakes rivers PLUS many locks (including the incredible Peterborough Lift Locks) all the way to Georgian Bay. Plenty of places to stop for supplies and fuel AND there are lakefront restaurants, motels, campgrounds, etc. I did the trip several years ago and it was amazing. One tip...avoid Just and early August because there CAN be long wait times at some of the locks. p.s. Go on You Tube an call up Big Chute, also part of the system.

Just the clamps. The next boat will be getting the TH Marine hydraulic trim plate and I’ll bolt it down to that, but as for this boat the clamps are more than sufficient. I check them before I tow the boat and before launching and they rarely need to be tightened. If they do it’s an 1/8th of a turn. Barely anything.

Did the water pump discharge stream increase when you got the boat in the water? Seemed a bit weak on the ear muffs for testing. Nice motor.

[@FloBass]

No, the discharge is the same in the water. I unscrewed the hose that is on the outside of the motor and there is a lot of water flow. It just doesn't come out the weep hole that fast. The manual says that if the engine overheats it will automatically cut the ignition so you can't rev it. On top of that, I called Yamaha to make sure and they advised the flow is normal.

[@Z-Bart]

@@FloBass Cool. Thanks for the reply.

[@jcdesignsandboat-works8290]

As a new subscriber, I just found this. Great motor! Here’s a tip to keep it clean inside though... every few outings run some salt terminator through it when flushing. It leaves a coating behind that helps prevent corrosion on the inside.

[@jamesmcnaughton5092]

Unnecessary , just a gimmick sold by yamaha

[@jcdesignsandboat-works8290]

james mcnaughton not unnecessary, I’ve seen the inner workings of more engines than I care to count. The stuff works and is not made by Yamaha. I use it in my own engines and will continue to. There are some gimmicks out there, that I can agree on but salt terminator is not one of them. Nor is ring free which is sold by Yamaha.

[@jamesmcnaughton5092]

Yes it is absolutely unnecessary, I've been a commercial fisherman my whole life, I've seen outboard engines with 6,000 hours that have NEVER been flushed with those products nor have been flushed with even fresh water, not once, being kept on a mooring or a dock and not brought home and still ran fine until the day they were sold, but I guess you know more

[@jcdesignsandboat-works8290]

james mcnaughton I’ve been a marine tech for over two decades so I think I am qualified. Just because it works doesn’t mean it can’t work better? I am not saying one has to use the product, I am simply recommending it. It would take many years for most folks to see a couple thousand hrs from an engine where a commercial boat is going to rack them up pretty quickly.

[@igorperic5232]

This is an amazing video. We really need this type of real life information. How much fuel do you spend? Plus beginner question. These two outboards are similar in size and their propellers. Why their propellers are not twice the size?

[@FloBass]

By my estimate, I get around 10 miles to the gallon. What matters most about propellers is the pitch, not the overall diameter. You need more horsepower to spin a bigger propeller because the increased surface area causes more resistance in the water. So if the 25 had a propeller twice the size, it would be slower.

[@igorperic5232]

@@FloBass So if I wanted to pass entire Croatian coast top to bottom, both ways (1200 miles) with 5 meter rib I could spend easily 120 gallons. Plus the light summer wind and sea conditions.

The stream out of the weep hole is the same in the water as what’s in this video. One you increase rpm the stream pushes just as hard as any other outboard. Yamaha verified this is standard operation for the F25.

[@ajaivinayagam4365]

Awesome video..and . I need some explanation... Which one is best.. 2 stroke or 4 stroke.. Pls advise..

That’s a matter of opinion. Neither is better than the other. There are plenty of videos that talk about 2 stroke vs 4 stroke outboards. You should learn about their differences to determine which will work better for you, your boat, and what you plan on doing.

[@6___________99_____________64]

I know I'm very jealous of that. I've love to unbox my own motor

[@br23goose]

Kind of a random question about this motor. I'm wondering if it is to big for portability such as used on an inflatable, picking it up and putting it in the back of my suburban. What are you thoughts? Second question, how how long is the motor from bottom to tip of tiller folded up? Want to know if I could transport in the back of the Suburban. I would go to a dealer to measure myself but no one has any in stock. Thank you, great overview of this engine, best online.

[@FloBass]

I'd say it's too heavy for an inflatable. It's something like 127lbs. It's a pain to take it off and move it around. I can fit it in my volkswagen with the rear seats folded down. A suburban would have plenty of room. For an inflatable you'd probably want something like a 9.9hp. You'll go about 22mph and its very portable.

[@br23goose]

@@FloBassI really appreciate the info.I needed to hear from someone who owns an F25. I would of hated to buy one and regretted it. My inflatable is actually rated up to a 30hp (which is crazy), it's pretty big boat. I think I might go with a Tohatsu 20hp which is more manageable at 95 lbs. Thanks again!

[@FloBass]

I see. If you’re boat is rated for a 30, then you might want to go with that hp. Always use the biggest hammer to complete the work. But if you’re going to be removing it, a lighter motor is better, I think. All the weight is at the top and on the F25 the handles are below the power head and makes it difficult to carry without the motor wanting to pivot and flip while you’re carrying it.

[@br23goose]

@@FloBass again, thank you for the info, really helpful.

[@JamesBrown-rm2rd]

so with the boat ,and trailer, and 25 hp Yamaha motor, what's the total price you have in it.

How heavy is your boat? I currently rock a 15hp Yamaha, but I’m looking at maxing out to the 25hp since it’s only heavier by 15lbs or so. 🤔

According to trackers website the 1436 is 162 pounds. Mines a little heavier with the fabricated transom since the original was cracked.

[@williamavery9185]

Great video. Can you explain how to use that switch under the gear shift. Im saving for a 15hp longshaft do you know if they are fitted to these, thanks.

[@FloBass]

The switch is for adjusting your idle speed up or down in 100 rpm increments to control how fast you troll when the motor is idling. The motor is very popular to be used as a kicker on larger boats. They use the smaller motor to troll so it doesn't increase the hours on their large motors, and it uses less fuel. I'm not 100% sure, but I don't believe the 15hp has the switch. I do know it comes on the 20, and 25hp models.

First tip I learned about Yamaha and Suzuki never run them with ears you got a 55 gallon drum bucket I know it's a pain in the ass but they're very temperamental the oil filter holds point 1 of a quart so even though there's no oil in the engine at all it's a brand new oil filter dad has never seen oil

[@FloBass]

Thanks for the heads up! So far I haven't had any issues with the ear muffs and the engine overheating or not getting enough water to the impeller. The stream coming out of the weep hole is the same with the muffs as it is when the engine is in the water. Its pressure also increases with throttle input with the muffs on, so I'm confident there's plenty of volume to supply the engine.

Hi! I have a new/stored/never used before 2013 f9.9 which I will be running for its very first time and wanted to ask you, the port on top where the water hose connects to flush the engine, when do I do that? After bringing my boat back from the sea? Also, I’m confused if to buy the headset looking device or to run the engine on a bucket of water? Sorry for the noob questions, it’s my first outboard. Your boat is going to fly with that 25!

[@FloBass]

I don’t believe connecting a hose at the top is the correct way to flush the engine. I always flush the engine using the headset over the water intake ports at the bottom so the water pump impeller is lubricated with water and. Of ran dry. I would flush the motor after every use in salt water.

[@RodrinBird]

FloBass I found it, it’s called a flushing device and it’s a garden hose connector next to the choke knob. Maybe the newer engines like yours, don’t have it/need it. Anyways, it is used for “flushing the power unit after operation for the most thorough flushing”. But it’s “not to be done while the engine is running as the water pump may be damaged and severe damage can occur from over-heating”. I was just confused between the two procedures: running the engine with the headsets vs in a tank/bucket. The flushing with the water hose up top is an extra step and should never be done with the engine on.

[@FloBass]

Still going strong. I actually have a one year review video coming up when I get a chance to edit it.

[@grizzy7469]

Does your Yamaha F25 have power trim? I am looking to get the same motor for a Lowe 1648 aura and the dealer closest to me says they don’t make a 25 long shaft (20in) tiller with power trim but they do with the 15in,... but they make a 20 hp (F20) with long shaft with power trim. Do you think power trim is worth having or not? Tia.

[@FloBass]

Definitely get one with power trim. I regret not spending the extra money to get it.

[@grizzy7469]

FloBass ok thanks. That’s what I was thinking. Is your F25 a short shaft (15in) tiller than? Like I said the dealer said they don’t make a 20in long shaft with power trim which is dumb.

Beautiful motor

did you get it from a dealership or order it online from somewhere

Dealer

Looks like you reinforced the transom. Can you explain about what was done to reinforce the transom to accommodate the new motor?

[@FloBass]

The old transom brace was cracked really bad. Also two cracks on the top of the transom near each corner of the boat. Just added a plate to the inside part of the transom. Welded it to the floor and sides of the boat. Then used a 2x3 piece of aluminum as the new transom support and welded it to a plate thats welded to the floor. The factory transom flexed like crazy with the 9.9 motor. This one doesnt move at all with the 25.

Beautiful engine how much she cost ya?

[@FloBass]

[@nintendude1988]

@@FloBass oof. I got quoted exactly 3k for one from our local dealer

[@cookie19292]

What store did you purchase the outboard? I keep seeing them starting at 3700 and some change.

[@FloBass]

I just walked into a local Yamaha dealer where I live.

[@watercool5]

Did you use mounting bolts? Is the bolt location the same for the 9.9 and 25?

[@FloBass]

No mounting bolts. It's a portable motor, so it uses the clamps.

Very good video... thanks a lot

[@JetsWinnipeg-ui2cz]

Did you add gear oil or was there some in there already? lol

[@FloBass]

The motors come shipped with gear oil since the lower units are sealed. Only need to add oil.

[@deanwatkins8754]

Where did you get your Yamaha outboard boss?

[@FloBass]

A local marine shop that is a Yamaha dealer. Any marine and/or powersports dealer in your area that deals with Yamaha should be able to order you an outboard.
