2019 Yamaha VMax 150 Tiller

wondering if anybody can point me to the part number to rig up a 150 or 175 yamaha vmax with a tiller handle?

The dealer im talking to says they can only go to 115 hp

Get in touch with the guys at The Boat Center in Chippewa Falls, WI. They will have answers for you.

Let us know if they have a workable answer for you.

Try contacting Lacanne’s. I saw on Walleye Central they have a 20′ tiller listed with a 175 Yamaha. Hopefully that means someone is now producing a power steering system for manufacturers other than Mercury.

Looks like that rig is at the MPLS Boat Show, surely someone took a look at it?

Hi All,

I found a uflex system for yamaha’s just released this year

My dealer is saying they can’t order a 150vmax with a tiller. So it would be custom and void warranty.

I’m not sure the extra cost for the 150 is worth it. Not looking for speed but thinking if I add a kicker and 5 batteries, the extra power might be better for cruising at 35 mph instead wide open for 35 mph.

I don’t know what size boat you have but if it’s a 20′ tiller stick at least a 150 hp on it.

Friend of mine bought that boat with a 150 Merc 4 stroke. The 150 handles it very well.

Thanks! I think the 150 might be best option but want to stay with yamaha.

I had really good luck with my 75

150 Yamaha will be fine also.

Rumor has it that Yamaha only makes a tiller for up to a 115 and although it fits the 150 and 175 they do not stand behind it for whatever reason. I had a 2009 WX 2000T with a 150 and a tiller but it was a 115 tiller handle. Not sure why Yamaha fights the big tiller thing but they do. It will work and there are many out there just a liability thing for Yamaha.
