2017 Yamaha F200 3.3L Offshore XCA Outboard Motor – 200HP V6 for Legendary Offshore Performance
The 2017 Yamaha F200 XCA (part of the legendary V6 3.3L Offshore series) redefined offshore outboard power with groundbreaking innovations in low-end/midrange torque, acceleration, and top-end speed. This mechanically remote-controlled four-stroke V6 earned BoatingWeek Innovation and MotorBoating Editor’s Choice awards for its revolutionary design, including a narrow 60° block, Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT), long-track induction, and precision multi-point EFI with 6 independent injectors.
Powered by a 3352cc (204.6 ci) DOHC 24-valve engine, the F200 XCA delivers 200 HP at 5500 RPM with exceptional smoothness and efficiency on regular unleaded (min. 89 octane). Features like high intake valve lift, large-radius valves, In-Bank™ exhaust, and exhaust pressure reduction ensure explosive hole shots, strong midrange pull, and quiet operation – perfect for center consoles, offshore fishing boats, bay boats, and multi-engine setups demanding reliable long-range performance.
Built for durability in harsh marine environments, it includes YDC-30 aluminum alloy construction, 5-step anti-corrosion paint, sacrificial anodes, water-cooled rectifier/regulator, direct ignition, and a high-output 44-amp alternator (27A battery charge). Convenience highlights: Command Link® compatibility, power trim & tilt, freshwater flush, Yamaha Diagnostic System, and multi-charge monitoring for easy maintenance and monitoring.
Weighing 608 lbs dry with a 25″ extra-long shaft (XCA = 25″ shaft, Command Link compatible, mechanical controls in base config), this model offers superior balance and handling on larger transoms or jack plates. Real-world performance shows quick planing, excellent fuel economy, and proven longevity in demanding offshore conditions.
Whether repowering an offshore rig or outfitting a new bluewater boat, the 2017 Yamaha F200 XCA combines award-winning technology with Yamaha’s unmatched reliability and corrosion resistance – a trusted choice for serious boaters worldwide.
Proven offshore performer – smooth, powerful, and built to last in saltwater environments.
