Used 2025 Yamaha F70LA 70 HP Outboard — 94 Hours, Fully Serviced

About this engine

The Yamaha F70 is the connoisseur's midrange engine — the lightest 70 in its class at 253 pounds, with a 16-valve SOHC head and multi-point fuel injection borrowed from bigger-engine thinking. Skiff guides and flats anglers swear by it for a reason: it sips fuel, starts instantly, and its power-to-weight ratio keeps poling skiffs and light bay boats floating skinny and running honest speeds.

This one is a 2025 model with 94 hours — functionally a nearly-new engine. Per the seller it has been professionally inspected and fully serviced, is in excellent condition, and is ready to mount and run. The 20-inch shaft, electric start and power trim and tilt make it a straightforward bolt-on for the skiffs, flats boats and small center consoles the F70 was designed around.

Better still, the controls and accessories are included, and the seller backs the engine with a 4-year warranty (per seller) — coverage you almost never see attached to a used outboard listing. The gallery shows the engine on its stand from the side, rear and bracket, yellow service tag still on the motor.

The F70's other party trick is versatility. With its 20-inch shaft, light weight and remote mechanical controls, it drops onto an enormous range of boats — poling skiffs, 16- to 18-foot bay boats, aluminum multispecies hulls, small center consoles and tenders that need real power without real weight. The 2.33:1 gearing turns a prop with genuine authority for a 70, which is why it planes loads that embarrass other engines in the class.

Buying a used current-year engine always comes down to paperwork and proof, and this listing leans into both: the seller states it was professionally inspected and fully serviced, the hours are stated plainly at 94, and the 4-year warranty (per seller) is recorded in writing on this page. That is how used outboards should be sold.

A current-model-year F70 with double-digit hours, serviced, rigged and warrantied, at 22.5% below market, is as close to buying new as the used market gets — for thousands less. WhatsApp us before a guide service snaps it up.
