📖 Model Background

The Yamaha SX200X 2‑stroke outboard, produced from 1998 to 2005, was part of Yamaha’s high-performance 200 HP lineup and built on the rugged “OX” 2-stroke platform. Featuring an inline 5-cylinder loop-charged engine with approximately 200 HP and a dry weight of around 453 lb, it combined raw power with a durable design. The SX200X was prized in both recreational and commercial circles for its strong mid-range torque, reliability in harsh marine environments, and relatively straightforward maintenance. Its balance of performance and dependability made it a standout in Yamaha’s late‑90s/early‑2000s 2‑stroke haulout engines.
