Yanmar 6LYA-STP

The Power Behind Stella Blue

The Yanmar 370 has been a popular choice for power in the single engine version of this boat. Yanmar has enjoyed a great reputation in auxiluary power in sail boats. We had a 27 year old Yanmar in our last sailboat that just ran great all the time, so we were quite happy that this boat had Yanmar power.

The Yanmar 370 HP is one version of the 6LY family. It is the same engine as the 350 HP 6LYA-STE, just rated differently. The Yanmar engine codes for these  engines goes like this:

6

LY

A

ST

E or P

No. of cylinders

family of engines

final assembly in America
(long block assembled in Japan)

Super Turbocharged

Export or Pleasure rated

The engine code information came from Yanmarhelp.com. This a great site with lots of useful information

Yanmar Test Data

The following data was published on the Mainship Website as data collected by the "major engine suppliers during real world boat tests of mainship yachts." This information is not any guarantee of any performance but is interesting to look at.

Keep in mind, these tests were done on a lightly loaded boat with brand new (read-very clean hull)
