Yet another dramatic example of the potential of this new made in the usa technology This is not a mistake was done on purpose one brand new yamaha I-4 200 hp Vs brnd new evinrude g-2 150 rode this boat my self both motors topped out rite around 6000 rpms wot with both motors down in the water running then we shut down the Evinrude tilted it all the way up the Yamaha with 50 more HP would not plane out the boat gust struggled to make way ok now tilted the Evinrude down and the Yamaha up 50 less Hp Popped the boat on plane not rite away but got her up and going to every one on boards surprise this is not your granp's old two stroke can not even put the two in the same category. The dash board fuel flow indicators also will give you a great surprise less fuel more power we are going to have to rethink the whole 2stroke vs 4stroke discussion all over again lets take a look at the auto industry direct injection is taking over all the big modern motor manufacturers are using direct injection

That's Very impressive. Performance aside with a boat with twins it can make a huge safety difference if one motor fails.

Funny. The Yamalovers are hating this. Also they are quick to point out the Yama inline 4 has "less performance" than the V4.
It's kind of like a 200 "light".
