"MSHW" - What Does It Mean?

[YAMAHAMAY]

I have a 9.9MSHY 2-stroke - with documentation. I also have a 15hp 2-stroke which I believe is designated "MSHW", but I don't have original papers.
How do I find out what the letters stand for in "MSHW", "MLHW", etc.?
Is there a reference chart available?

You can look here....

You can look it up on the Yamaha Code Reference Chart at this link : http://www.boats.net/parts/search/Ya...ard/parts.html . Just copy and paste that into your browser search window. But anyway MSHW stands for Manual Start and Tilt , 15" shaft length , Tiller controls , 1998 year of manufacture. The MHLW is the same except for a 20" shaft length. The MSHY would be a year 2000 motor.
