Yamaha F15 2026: The Newest Build of the 15HP Efficiency Champion
The 2026 Yamaha F15 is the current factory release of Yamaha’s 362cc SOHC in-line twin-cylinder four stroke. Its single carburetor and CDI Microcomputer Ignition System keep it among the most fuel-efficient engines in the 15HP class, while the 111 lb weight suits aluminum fishing boats, tenders, and inflatables.
