Whether you need a simple pull start motor or one with electric start and power tilt, here is every Yamaha 15 HP outboard for sale in our stock.

Reading the code: F (four stroke), 15 (horsepower), S or L (15 or 20 inch shaft), M (manual start), E (electric start), P (power tilt), H (tiller) and A (generation).

Boats That Suit a Yamaha 15 HP

  • Jon boats and flat bottom boats of around 3.6 to 4.3 metres.
  • Inflatables and RIBs of 3.3 to 3.8 metres that need to plane with two people.
  • Small aluminium fishing boats on lakes, rivers and estuaries.
  • Heavier sailboats needing more push than a 9.9.

Always respect your boat's maximum horsepower rating.

F15 Strengths

Smooth twin cylinder

Two cylinders give a smooth, quiet idle, which matters when trolling or motoring slowly through marinas.

Choice of starting

Manual start keeps weight and cost down and needs no battery. Electric start (E) makes starting effortless and can charge a battery for lights and a fish finder.

Power tilt option

The F15LPHA raises and lowers the motor at the press of a button, handy for beaching, launching and shallow water.

Yamaha reliability

The F15 is a trusted choice for rental fleets, fishing guides and work boats because it keeps running with simple maintenance.

Choosing Your F15

  1. Shaft: about 15 inches of transom calls for S, about 20 inches for L.
  2. Starting: manual for simplicity; electric if you have or want a battery.
  3. Tilt: choose power tilt if you often lift the motor or run in shallow water.

15 HP or 20 HP?

If your boat is rated for 20 HP and you often carry heavy loads, look at our Yamaha F20 models in the 2023 Yamaha outboards collection. If your boat or local rules limit you to 15 HP, the F15 is the natural choice.

Looking After Your F15

  • Flush with fresh water after salt water use.
  • Change engine oil and gear oil at the intervals in the manual.
  • Check the water pump impeller, anode and spark plugs.
  • Use fresh fuel and a water separating filter.
