A cursory Google shows that the Yanmar YSE was constructed from 1971 through to 1976, while the YSM range was from 1977 to 1981. I could imagine that there were no more available in the late 70s.

Another interesting point uncovered was that the YSE had a cast-iron gearbox while the YSM had an aluminium one - the difference in weight was a reduction from 125kg to 102kg.

A while back we had flurry of forum messages about the possible weight increase of changing to a larger 2GM20 (expectedly heavier) and the effect on trim that might have. I now see that against the YSM's 102kg the 2GM20 weighs 100kg. I can't vouch for the figures but they look as if they come from official Yanmar dealers and support sites.

Best,

Brian.
