“SHO” is in reference to the new Yamaha 4.2 liter four stroke outboards released last summer. The “SHO” motors are the 20″ shaft bass boat motors. The 25″ shaft 4.2 liter motors are called “off shore” and are a versions of the same outboard…. with a longer shaft.

No matter what you call them… they’re one heck of a strong running motor.

I’m excited to se your new rig James… I really want to see and hear that new Off Shore Yamaha

I heard baby rumors from a friend & Yamaha tech that they might release the actual SHO verison (which just has some advanced weight reduction) in the 25″ next year. I think he was just hoping. Regardless, my new 620 will have the 4.2 SHO or off shore for SURE!!!

Update on the network.
Ran a 15 foot nema cable to the back of the boat. Got the Yamaha interface cable from lowrance and pluged it into the motor. Hooked the T up they shipped with it and it is done.
Next just go on your Lowrance and program the overlay date you want. It has a bunch. RPM,temp,oil presure,hours,mpg,gph,trim and a few more. It was easy to do and you can set up your Lowrance any way you want.
Parts were about 120 buck and a little time. Well worth the money in my eyes.
