Yamaha's versatile F90 outboard is light and compact while offering greater torque and stronger acceleration then similar 90-hp outboards. The F90 is the choice for those looking for a motor that can fit a variety of boats and perform while looking good in either traditional grey or new pearlescent white colour ways. |

UPDATED LOOKThe compact new F90 adopts an updated cowling to keep it consistent with the look of the Yamaha outboard lineup. |
MULTI-POINT FUEL INJECTIONWith Multi-point Fuel Injection, Fuel is delivered at the optimum volume and time according to ECU sensor signals. This ensures quick starts, efficient fuel consumption, and ample power along with ultra-low emissions. |
COMMAND LINK COMPATIBILITYThe F90 is compatible with Yamaha's Command Link 6Y8 and 6YC digital gauges, as well as Y-COP®. |
AMP IT UPThe F90 features a three-phase alternator that produces up to 35 amps of power — that's 40 percent more output than the previous generation. So there's plenty of electrical power for battery charging and accessories. |
PEACE AND QUIETYamaha's Shift Dampener System (SDSTM) greatly reduces the noise commonly associated with shifting gears. Using a new design and components specific to Yamaha "K" size propellers (4.25"), much of the force of shifting is absorbed. The new F90 is compatible with Yamaha's exclusive TalonTM SDSTM propellers, including GP and Pontoon. |
POWER TRIM AND TILTThe F90C is equipped with a single compact, lightweight PTT unit. The tilt angle can be adjusted with the optional tilt limiter. |

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!
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.
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.
