how to check serialnumber Yamaha outboard engines ?

[Toffy]

I want to know all info on Yamaha engine with serialnr 61HL300746.
I have no modelnr info, which makes it a bit harder...

year ? 250 hp ?,...

I found a lot of info on Yam's modelnumbers syntax,
but I haven't found a website on which I can can check the serialnumber.

Thanks!
T.

Anyone ?
There's got to be Yam specialists on here
Grts, T.

The only source for that info would be Yamaha and only accessible by a dealer.

I've bought it, runs great !
modelnr info = 200CETO

Yam dealer told me it's a 1990 200hp. However, second to last letter is "T" which makes it a 1995.
Could it be there is difference in numbering syntax since this engine is for the European market ?
Nobody -not even the Yam dealer- seems to know what "CETO" exactly means...

Thx, T.

CETO is an international model. That serial number wont be in the U S system. A dealer on your side of the world would have to look it up

1995 model

You might have a European model.
CETO is the international number used to identify options on the motor.
Used in Holland where I live aswell as in the rest of europe.
The T in CETO stands for trim, not the year.
Year should be a stand-alone letter on the id-plate:
(European models only)
D 90
C 91
B 92
A 93
Z 94
Y 95
X 96/>>>
W 97>>
V 98>>
U 99>>
T 00>>
S 01>>
R 02>>
Q 03>>
P 04>>
