SD15

The SD15 Saildrive by ZF is designed for use on sailing monohull yachts and catamarans up to 65 feet, enabling the owners of larger sailboats to experience the benefits of YANMAR’s proven range of saildrive solutions. Providing an exclusive combination of common rail and saildrive efficiency for vessels with higher power engines, YANMAR offers the SD15 Saildrive propulsion system with the 4JH80 and 4JH110 engine models. YANMAR’s electronically-controlled common rail engines pair seamlessly with the electric-controlled SD15 saildrive, ensuring clean installation and smooth operation. The SD15’s hydraulic shifting, combined with a recommended folding propeller, reduces noise and vibration, contributing to overall comfort onboard.
