  • Year of Outboard (2005?)

    If a "new" 70 HP TLRD 2-stroke was manufactured in July 2004 (engine plate), can it be sold as a 2005 model.
    Thanks

    jbellina,
    I just checked my 2000 model C115, and it has a mfg. date of 05/1999 - so the answer to your question is YES. I guess the outboard mfgs. do the same as the car mfgs. - they come out with new year models in the previous year.
    Good luck,
    Ken K

      The "D" at the end of the model number peg's it as a 2005 model.

      "X" = 1999
      "Y" = 2000
      "Z" = 2001
      "A" = 2002
      "B" = 2003
      "C" = 2004
      "D" = 2005

      I think this scheme goes "back" to "N" (1989) which means that Yamaha has a Y2.014K problem...
