Catch Small Issues Before They Become Big Ones
The 20 hour check is your engine's first real service milestone, a full inspection after break in that keeps small adjustments from turning into bigger repairs.
Your Engine's First Real Checkup
New outboards go through a break in period, and the fasteners, fluids, and moving parts that settle during that time need a real look before you put serious hours on the engine. The 20 hour check is built around exactly that window. Our Yamaha Five Star Gold Certified technicians go through your engine from top to bottom, so anything that shifted during break in gets caught and corrected early.
