Is this an old engine info sticker on our boats dash?

[martin33100]

Hi guys.
I have just bought a boat to do up and during its life it has had a new engine fitted.
Next to the steering column there is some engine info on a yellow sticker but I think this is for the original engine??.

The new engine has the Yam digital display but there is an un-used Yam tilt gauge in the dash so it looks like the original engine may have been a Yam also.

I am currently fitting a new steering wheel and tidying up the dash so if this is an old sticker for a previous engine I will remove it.

This is the yellow sticker




This is the recent Yam digital display

Looks pretty new.

If you find the engine number plate that will give the date of manufacture.

Thanks for your reply, the boat is a 1990 but the current Yam is a 2002.
As it's new to me I am trying to find out if the yellow sticker next to the steering column is for the old engine.

Looks like it’s under the helm boss which would make me think it original too

Looks like it's an old sticker so I will get it removed before I fit my new steering wheel.
The first column of the sticker says horn sounds when you first turn the key to show the horn works.
I don't think the new Yam digital gauge has a horn that sounds when you turn the key, is this right??.
Our last boat had a Mercury and that sounded the horn when you turned on the power.

print a photo of it and put it in a folder. If you find your horn blowing random sequences one day, you know where to look.

I have printed off the manual for the current Yam command link multifunction gauge (round) and it doesn't look like the sticker relates to it but I do have a picture.

I had the same sticker with a Johnson 150 HP outboard back in 1998!

I think you are right, the early RYDS's 475GT's were usually built with Johnson/Evinrude outboards but ours was re-engined in 2002.
The guy we got it from said the boat was a 1990.

It all falls into place. I have a RYDS 620DC from 2001 with a Johnson on the back. I don't have the sticker, but the warning beeps certainly match up, so I've taken a copy of that for reference, thanks!

Welcome to the RYDS club, remove the sticker and have fun with the renovation!
