What Does "C" Mean?

[BlueAxela]

I just bought a new/used boat with a 1999 Yamaha 75Hp oil injected outboard. The engine is in great shape. The model number is 75TLRX. I tried looking up the value on NADA for fun, but I only found C75TLRX...

What does "C" mean?

I'm also looking to a get genuine Yamaha outboard cover, but is there a difference between a regular 75 and a C75?

I believe that Yamaha "C" models are commercial engines. Exactly how they differ from the recreational engines I don't know.

rodbolt will know.

Was looking to buy one a few years ago but they were discontinued. For one thing I believe they were not oil injected. Might also have had just power trim not tilt, like an old 50 vs. PRO 50. Cover will fit. FRED
