The SHO series lives up to the hype. Swapped my older motor for this 2025 VF115LB SHO, and the hole shot improvement was immediate. It gets my aluminum rig up on plane in seconds flat, and the mid-range punch when you hammer the throttle is fantastic for tournament fishing.

You get the high-output acceleration of a bigger block packed into a lighter 115HP package. It handles chop effortlessly, runs super quiet at cruising speeds, and sips fuel compared to my previous two-stroke. The 20-inch shaft fit my transom setup perfectly.

Love the aggressive black and red SHO styling under the cowl—it looks sharp on the back of my bay boat. More importantly, it fires up instantly every single morning and idles smooth as glass. Yamaha engineering at its finest.

We needed something lightweight that wouldn’t bog down the stern when poling shallow waters, but still had enough grunt to run long distances across the bay. This 115 SHO hits that sweet spot precisely. Exceptional torque and seamless mechanical control response.
