📖 Model Background

The Yamaha 130 HP 2-stroke outboard, produced from 1997 to 2003, was part of Yamaha’s highly regarded V4 engine series—known for durability, straightforward maintenance, and dependable performance in saltwater conditions. It offered strong acceleration, reliable mid-range torque, and broad compatibility with fishing boats, bay boats, and offshore hulls.
