Going easy with it is different than can’t use it at all. My 2006 Honda did no needed brake in period and just sold it on Thursday, still working fine, 14’ 3 person and gears 23kmh/15mph, myself without gears (battery and fuel tank included of course) 30kmh |
All engines need to be broken in properly which means changing your revs as you go up and down but not full throttle for a while......I have two Hondas and a Yamaha presently and have had others in the past over the last 45 years..... they all required break-in....... Read your book of words from Yamaha..... its in there..... I run a 16 foot Fishrite with a 50/35 Honda Jet and have not issues getting up on step with 4 people I also have a 16 ft Lake Jon with a 40/30 Yamaha Jet and also have no issues with 3 people getting on step instantly...... maybe its how you have your weight balanced in the boat
