Yamaha F150LC 150HP Outboard Motor – Remote Mechanical, 20″ Shaft (Scratch & Dent)
The Yamaha F150LC is a proven performer in Yamaha’s legendary In-Line Four 150HP series — a compact, lightweight, and powerful four-stroke outboard ideal for single or twin installations on bay boats, center consoles, offshore fishing rigs, and family cruisers. Built on a responsive DOHC 16-valve 2.7L (or updated 2.8L depending on model year) inline-four engine with Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI), it delivers strong low- and mid-range torque, smooth operation, quick acceleration, and excellent fuel economy on regular unleaded (87–89 octane).
This F150LC model features remote mechanical controls, a 20″ long shaft, electric start, and power trim & tilt (PTT) for easy handling in shallow water or during trailering. It includes integrated hydraulic steering compatibility (common on mechanical F150 models), a high-output alternator (typically 35–50 amp depending on exact variant), and Yamaha’s advanced corrosion protection with YDC-30 aluminum alloy, multi-layer paint, sacrificial anodes, and freshwater flush capability.
Weighing approximately 509 lbs (20″ shaft mechanical configuration), the F150LC offers one of the best power-to-weight ratios in the 150HP class, making it easier to install, better for boat balance, and more efficient on the water. Real-world boaters praise its reliability, quiet running, low vibration (thanks to twin balancer shafts), and long-term durability — backed by Yamaha’s reputation for excellence.
This Scratch & Dent unit has only minor cosmetic blemishes with no mechanical or performance issues — a rare opportunity to own a premium Yamaha 150HP outboard at significant savings while still qualifying for full manufacturer warranty coverage. Whether repowering an existing boat or outfitting a new build, the F150LC provides versatile, dependable power trusted by thousands of anglers and boaters worldwide.
