He had the engine oil, foot oil, something else and timing belt checked. He is a very competent mechanic, I have seen him do extensive work on $30k+ diesel engines but he was scared about voiding his warranty.
Is Yamaha that bad about warranty? Why not change the oil yourself and if they want a printout, haul it in and tell them to print away.
I have over 2400 hours on my F150, and I have performed every service. When I have had to take her in for issues, Yamaha was quick to take care of me! It is much cheaper to do it yourself! Pretty simple, too!
I change the crankcase oil and the lower unit oil every 100-115 hours.

The yamaha owners manual shows what can be done by the owner, just about all maint. can be diy without hurting the warranty. Save your documentation and keep a maint. log and you are good to go. Each year I change the lower unit oil, engine oil, oil filter, spark plugs, clean or replace the water seperator and change the onboard fuel filter. This all runs about $130 for parts and oils. On odd years I also rebuild the water pump. This adds about $50 bucks to the above.
However, I have had a life time of experence working on boat motors of all types. If you don’t have the tools and skills, don’t screw up a fine engine trying to save a few bucks.
Just my 2cents worth

Don’t want to hijack the thread but was wondering what an annual service on a 200 Suzuki would set me back? Thanks

Annual Service on a Suzuki 140 ran me $400+
Unfortunately at that price I’ll be doing my own maintenance.
all larger 4 strokes run $289 plus parts
parts vary greatly from motor to motor and customer to customer
zincs may not need to be replaced everytime, as well as spark plugs, etc…
