It is available in new-look Pearlescent White or Traditional Gray.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Performance Optimisation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Yamaha, customers will love the higher power from a V6 and the increased torque at lower speeds, allowing for a more responsive, exhilarating experience when piloting the boat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A valuable addition to the V6 line-up, the latest 350hp 4.3L engine also boasts larger intake and exhaust valves to maximise air movement. Better air flow equals more power as the engine\u2019s precisely mapped fuel and ignition timing match operator throttle demand for responsive performance, while a new robust crankshaft offers a longer stroke, enabling more torque at lower speeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sync all this big-block power with Yamaha\u2019s built in Digital Electric Steering (DES) and exclusive Thrust Enhancing Reverse Exhaust (TERE) and the new 350hp V6 becomes the standard for an exciting boating experience, Yamaha says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Engine Advancements<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the cylinder heads to the crankcase, Yamaha\u2019s new 350hp V6 reaps the benefits of meticulous technical design. With an impressive 11:1 compression ratio, the new engine expertly manages air displacement using tailored intake manifolds equipped with 40% larger surge tanks to maximise the amount and timing of air rushing into the intake ports, while also ensuring even distribution of air into each cylinder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new Yamaha 350hp V6 also incorporates the use of iridium spark plugs \u2013 appreciated for their hardiness and concentrated, efficient spark \u2013 combined with the premier of Yamaha\u2019s new fuel injection control technology, which produces a longer injector duration than that of the 300hp V6 for more power.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Enhancements to the Helm Master EX<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As with its other high-powered models, the new 350hp V6 outboard is designed to be used in concert with Yamaha\u2019s exclusive, category defining Helm Master EX control rigging system, which makes boat operations both easy and enjoyable. Helm Master EX uses sophisticated technology to help professionals, enthusiasts and leisure users boat with confidence, maximising fun on the water across both single and multiple outboard engine set-ups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For 2024, Yamaha builds on the joystick-integrated variable speed bow thruster system with the addition of single, quad and quint outboard motor applications for larger boats that may require additional control. In addition, Sleipner joins Vetus for this next generation of integrated bow thrusters as supported vendor brands for this technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Also new for 2024, Yamaha\u2019s 704 Remote Control Box is now available with a neutral locking feature which allows the outboard to maintain a neutral position while the engine is running. This functionality is perfect for idling out on the water or wait time at the docks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The top mount control box allows for easy, one-handed throttle control and effortless trim setting adjustment via a thumb operated toggle switch in the handle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new innovations from Yamaha will be available to view at Yamaha\u2019s stand (Hall 3\/C90.1) at boot D\u00fcsseldorf from 20-28 January 2024.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest 350hp V6 outboard engine offers 20% more fuel efficiency than its predecessor<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":8104,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-8103","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8103","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8103"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8103\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8106,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8103\/revisions\/8106"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8104"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8103"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8103"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8103"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
