Shouldn't be a difference in years between countries. Yamaha outboards first came in the US in 1984 and the letter O and N was found on those engines. I always figured the O was 83's that was brought in and relabeled with an N. A lot of them back then could be found with model numbers with O on one side of the bracket and the model number with N on the other side.

YAMAHA Sweden told me, serial numbers for this type of motor started with 402000 in '89 and 403500 in '90
