T

he time is now; maybe not right now, but it

is now, and we are prepared at Yamaha! The

world’s first hydrogen-powered outboard motor was unveiled this year by Yamaha and while that may

sound like something out of a Jetson’s cartoon, it is actually

a #currentsituation.

Throughout 2024, at various boat shows around the world, Yamaha has been showing its game-changing H2, a hydrogen- combustion version of the XTO outboard. The XTO is Yamaha’s flagship 450 horsepower, gasoline-powered V-8. In a combined effort with Regulator Marine and Roush Performance the H2 was installed into two boats currently in testing phases.
