Yamaha 40 HP Jet Drive Outboard Motor — Nitro Assisted Tilt, Electric Start, Remote Mechanical Control

Yamaha’s Jet Drive four-strokes can boldly go where no propped outboard would dare — shallows, rocky-bottom rivers, shoals, and white-water rapids. These conditions would prove treacherous for a propeller-driven outboard, but a jet drive handles them with ease. Prop-free, you can “off-road” on the water without worrying about breaking a prop on rocks or other underwater obstructions.

So while you’re giving up the prop, you’re gaining a whole lot of freedom. Yamaha’s powerful, fuel-efficient Jet Drives are available in 150, 115, 90, 60, and 40 horsepower options to match a wide range of boats and uses.

This Yamaha F40 Jet Drive four-stroke is built around a 747cc engine that produces 30 HP at the pump, delivering the thrust needed to navigate skinny water and rough, obstacle-filled conditions with confidence. It comes equipped with remote mechanical controls, ideal for center console or dash-mounted steering setups, along with Nitro Assisted Tilt to make lifting and lowering the motor easier during trailering or shallow-water operation. Electric start ensures quick, reliable startups whenever you’re ready to head out.

Whether you’re running rivers, exploring shallow backwaters, or navigating rocky, obstruction-filled waterways, the Yamaha F40 Jet Drive delivers the freedom and durability to go where prop-driven outboards simply can’t.

Every unit ships brand new and factory sealed, backed by Yamaha’s full manufacturer warranty for complete peace of mind.
