Power That Doesn’t Shout
The Yamaha M12 is the electric outboard of choice when simplicity and silence matter most. Built around a dependable 12V permanent magnet motor, this ultra-portable unit provides up to 13.6 kg of thrust, delivering smooth movement with almost no noise or vibration. Whether you’re fishing, exploring, or just enjoying the lake, the M12 lets you get closer to nature without disturbing it.
What it lacks in size, it makes up in resilience. The M12 is engineered with a virtually indestructible composite prop shaft, heat-dissipating windings for extended battery life, and a weed-resistant power propeller that pushes through tough vegetation. The telescoping tiller with ergonomic grip offers intuitive control, while the 762 mm shaft ensures versatile mounting on tenders and dinghies. Simple, efficient, and crafted with Yamaha reliability — the M12 is your silent marine ally.
