Yamaha F25SWHC3 25HP Matte Brown Outboard Motor – Tiller, Electric & Manual Start, 15″ Shaft (Scratch & Dent)
The Yamaha F25SWHC3 is the lightest 25-horsepower four-stroke outboard on the water (only 132 lbs with 15″ short shaft), delivering exceptional power-to-weight in a compact, portable package. Finished in stealthy Matte Brown camouflage, this model is perfect for hunters, anglers, and boaters who want low-visibility styling on jon boats, inflatables, small fishing skiffs, tenders, and utility craft.
Powered by a responsive 432cc SOHC inline 2-cylinder engine with battery-less Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI), the F25SWHC3 offers smooth, reliable starts, crisp throttle response, and outstanding fuel efficiency on regular unleaded. It includes both electric start and a built-in manual pull-start backup, making it incredibly versatile. The ergonomic tiller handle provides precise control, while the mechanical tilt allows easy shallow-water operation and trailering.
Key innovations include Variable Trolling RPM Switch (VTS) capability, an external freshwater flush port, built-in carry handles, resting pads for stable horizontal storage, and an oil-retention system that prevents leaks when laid on its side. The 16-amp alternator keeps batteries charged for electronics, lights, or accessories.
This Scratch & Dent unit has only minor cosmetic blemishes with no mechanical issues — a rare chance to own Yamaha’s award-winning portable power at significant savings while still qualifying for full manufacturer warranty coverage. Real-world users praise its ultra-light weight, quiet operation, easy portability, and legendary Yamaha durability and corrosion resistance.
Whether as a primary motor on a small boat or a kicker/trolling motor on a larger rig, the 2019–current generation F25SWHC3 in Matte Brown combines class-leading lightness, modern EFI technology, and stealth styling for unmatched versatility on the water.
