2027 Yamaha Four Stroke Midrange Compact F40LA
Description
Meet the 2027 Yamaha F40LA Four Stroke Midrange Compact outboard—finished in classic Yamaha Gray and sized just right for the boats that do a little bit of everything. This is an engine-only listing (no boat included), perfect for repowering a trusted hull or powering a fresh build with a modern, efficient four-stroke.
At 40 hp (29.8 kW) and a 5000–6000 RPM full-throttle range, this inline 3-cylinder is a sweet spot for many lightweight fishing rigs, aluminum utility boats, and compact pontoons that want confident acceleration without jumping up to a heavier, thirstier class. The 747 cc displacement and 2.00:1 gear ratio help translate that power into strong prop bite—great for getting on plane cleanly and holding steady speed when the load changes from “solo run” to “full crew and gear.”
Because it’s fuel injected and runs on regular gas, the F40LA is built for easy ownership and predictable operating costs. The four-stroke design is all about smooth, quiet cruising, and with water (open loop) cooling plus salt-water capability, it’s ready for both inland weekends and coastal duty. A 17-amp alternator is on board as well, helping support your boat’s electrical needs while you’re out chasing the horizon.
This model comes with a 20-inch shaft and power trim, making it a strong match for many transoms in the midrange category and giving you the on-the-fly angle control you want for dialing in efficiency at cruise or adjusting for chop and load. Remote steering control keeps the setup clean and familiar at the helm.
On the confidence side, Yamaha’s engine alert system (visual/audible) and emergency RPM reduction are there to help protect your investment when conditions get unpredictable.
If you’re looking for a modern midrange outboard with practical power, smart efficiency, and the timeless look of Yamaha Gray, the F40LA is ready to be the dependable heart of your next season on the water.
