Yamaha VF175LB — 175 HP
Yamaha VF175LB is a four-stroke outboard motor rated at 175 HP (128,7 kW at the propeller shaft), successor to the VF175LA. Engine: 16-zaworowy, DOHC z VCT, rzędowy 4 (VMAX SHO), displacement 2785 cm³, wtrysk paliwa. Dry weight: 223, 227 kg.
A motor for remote control from the console — throttle and shift by cables from the control lever (mechanical controls), with mechanical or hydraulic steering in the boat. A proven choice for console boats that is simple to service. The model has electric start and power trim and tilt (PTT) — the motor angle is set with a button, even while underway.
Shaft length L (20″ / 508 mm). The shaft is matched to the boat’s transom height so that the anti-cavitation plate runs just below the water surface. Transom height for this shaft according to Yamaha: 516 mm.
The VMAX SHO series are Yamaha’s sport outboards: light build, quick throttle response and strong acceleration — for boats where performance counts. Cowling colour: Black.
Fuel consumption at full power according to Yamaha: 67,8 L/h @5500 obr/min. The VF175LB is within the power range the shipyard recommends for the GRAND G650. At the GRAND BOATS Poland service centre in Łężyce near Gdynia we install the engine, do the rigging and choose the propeller. The engine is supplied in cooperation with an authorised Yamaha dealer; the manufacturer warranty (3 + 2 years) is carried out by an authorised Yamaha service.
