2027 Yamaha V MAX SHO In-Line VF115XB
Description
Meet the Black 2027 Yamaha V MAX SHO VF115XB—a standalone outboard engine listing built for boaters who want punchy performance without jumping to a heavier, thirstier powerplant. This VMAX SHO In-Line 4-cylinder, 4-stroke is all about delivering confident midrange torque and responsive acceleration, making it an ideal match for 17–20 ft aluminum fishing rigs, bay boats, and multi-species deep-V hulls that need to hop on plane quickly with a loaded crew, full livewells, and gear.
With 115 bhp (85.8 kW) at 5500 RPM and a broad 5300–6300 WOT range, this outboard is tuned for real-world running—clean, strong pull when you roll into the throttle and smooth power when you’re settling into an efficient cruise. The 1.8L (1832 cc) displacement, DOHC 16-valve layout (4 valves per cylinder), and fuel injection work together to give you crisp starts and consistent power delivery, while still running on regular gas—a nice win for day-to-day operating cost.
For boats that spend long days on the water, the VF115XB brings practical confidence too. It’s salt water capable, uses water (open loop) cooling, and includes an engine alert system (visual/audible) plus emergency RPM reduction to help protect the engine if conditions demand it. The 35-amp alternator supports onboard electronics—helpful when your dash is doing more than just speed and trim.
Rigging and control are purpose-built for modern setups: remote steering control, power trim, and propeller propulsion with a 2.15:1 gear ratio to translate that horsepower into strong thrust where it counts—getting on plane, holding speed in chop, and staying composed when the boat is loaded.
This model is a 25-inch shaft outboard and weighs 386 lbs dry, making it a smart pick for transoms designed around 25” installations where balance and hole shot matter. If you’re looking for a sleek Black outboard that blends SHO-style attitude with everyday usability, the V MAX SHO VF115XB is ready to be the heartbeat of your next repower or new rig build.
