I am thinking about buying a new pontoon with a 60hp High Thrust Yamaha. I would like to not buy a trailer if I can figure out how to change oil and do what ever is needed especially on my first service. I will keep the boat hanging from a lift in my boat house in about 4 ft of water. Is it hard to change oil on a Yamaha. Thank for help.

Re: Yamaha first service.

Get a set up to pump the oil out through the dip stick tube and then all you have to worry about is getting to the filter

It's going to be impossible to change the lower gear oil and grease the prop shaft.
