Yamaha’s TotalTilt® Feature

SMOOTH, SOPHISTICATED PERFORMANCEThe DOHC block is a time-tested, proven design with four valves per cylinder, not two, for better breathing and smooth performance. |
EASIER FISHINGThe venerable platform is compatible with Yamaha's variable trolling speed (VTS), which allows anglers to adjust the trolling speed in 50 RPM increments from650 to 900 RPM using a Yamaha Command Link® gauge. |
QUIET OPERATIONThe F150 achieves new levels of quietness thanks to the Reliance® Series SDSTM propellers. Yamaha's exclusive Shift Dampener System greatly reduces the noise associated with shifting gears and offers smooth and quiet operation. The F150 includes the necessary hardware to accept SDS. |
IMPROVED APPEARANCEA new, lighter composite cowling covers new powerhead cladding (manifold, coil and alternator covers), designed to reduce interference between the cowling and powerhead during service. The new bottom cowling and apron ensure a smoother, less bulky profile. |
INTEGRATED STEERINGF150 DEC and Mechanical outboards now feature integrated steering; a level up in smart control options with the advent of integrated Electro-Hydraulic Steering on select 2.8L DEC models and integrated Hydraulic Steering on the remainder of 2.8L and 2.7L DEC and mechanical models. Integrated steering allows boat builders to use the space savings and streamlined appearance to create more feature-rich, desirable boats with premium benefits. These new four-cylinder integrated steering models expand this ability to even more models of single and twin outboard-powered craft so more boaters can experience the same first-class control, convenience, and comfort. |

Buyer’s Guide to Boats and Pontoons
When you think about it, buying a boat is a little bit like getting married. After all, this is the commitment of a lifetime, and you want to feel confident you’re making the right decision! Fortunately, there are plenty of fish in the sea, and plenty of boats and pontoons to choose from here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service. The following tips can help you narrow down the options and find your perfect match!
Choosing a Boat
What kinds of activities are you interested in? This should be your guiding question when choosing a boat. If catching fish is on the agenda, you should seek out a fishing boat, with features such as rod holders and livewells. If you want to pursue the excitement of watersports, you should look for a boat with a powerful engine that can reach high speeds. Meanwhile, if you are looking to host parties on the water, a spacious luxury boat will serve you best.
That being said, there’s no need to limit yourself. There are some boats that can cover all your bases! Pontoon boats, for example, are incredibly versatile. We are passionate about pontoon boats here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service, and we recommend them to our customers who want to get a little bit of everything out of their boating experience.
Budgeting for a Boat
Of course, you can’t talk about buying a boat without discussing all the costs involved! The upfront cost of purchasing a boat can be pretty steep, but the long-term costs are even more important to consider. When budgeting for a boat, remember to account for all the expenses that are going to add up over time – such as fuel, maintenance, and insurance.
Generally speaking, it’s a good idea to set aside at least 10% of your boat’s total value each year for routine maintenance, and another 5% for any unexpected repairs. Meanwhile, you can expect to pay about 1.5% of the total value of your boat annually for insurance coverage.
If you have any questions about the boat buying process, you are always welcome to consult the sales team here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service! We are always happy to assist. You can find us in Chatham, ON, near London.
