487 lbs for Yamaha(4stk), 510 for Merc(4stk), 433 for an e-tec 200(all 20 inch models). Keep in mind, all these weights are without a prop or fluids. No where as much difference as it used to be. To compare apples to apples, merc 175 Pro XS Opti weighs 431(makes right at 200 hp), Yamaha HPDI at 468. Personally, I don't believe any of theses weights, they all lie, I've seen the shipping tickets on new engines and they are all suspiciously much heavier than the weight of the engine and crate. I've had most of these engines swinging from a hoist at one time or another and find it hard to believe any of them are close to the weight of a 2 stk Merc. There was a bass magazine that weighed each of the new four strokes a few years back and found major differences in advertised weights(Suzuki was the worst) and actual weights, they lost a bunch of advertising money over that article and you haven't see a similar one since
