The high-thrust T60 has been specifically designed to provide the extra grunt when you need to move big loads such as sailboats and heavy pontoons.
Utilising a dual-thrust design the T60 produces twice the thrust of comparable two-strokes within the 2,000 to 3,000 RPM range, while delivering Yamaha’s the legendary reliability, durability, and efficiency that Yamaha Outboards are renown for.
The key mechanical difference between the T60 and the standard four-stroke platform is the use of a higher 2.33:1 gear ratio. This allows the T60 to spin a much larger propeller, generating more power to the water and resulting in less slippage.
The T60 can be fitted with Yamaha’s patented Dual Thrust propellers. These propellers provide maximum traction in both forward and reverse, by re-routing the exhaust when in reverse.
