Sea Trials in Barcelona: Yamaha F70 and Evinrude 60-HP

With the first units of the 5.0 also became the first sea tests homemade. At this moment, we have the chance to bring you the measurements taken with the Yamaha F70 y el Evinrude 60-HP but keep in attention because the list will increase soon. Even if our 5.0 is prepared to support 90hp engines, tests have shown that performances of lower power engines are also very high, and for most users, more than satisfactory. Both engines are able to light the best of 5.0, each with its own personality, as the Evinrude is a two stroke, starting to plan below 3000 rpm, achieving an economical speed close to 16 knots and coming very close to the maximum design speed en the case of the 70hp (we can anticipate that the maximum achieved with a 90cv is not too far. The difference between 10 kg less of the Evinrude and the 10cv more of the Yamaha translates a better performance of the Japanese, because even if it’s a 4 stroke cycle engine, the power /weight ratio stays nicely contained. You can get the rest of conclusion yourselves observing graphs that we leave below.
