My Caribe 12 has a Honda 40. It definitely goes when I want it to. I don't consider it to be stern heavy though. I doubt the Yammy weighs more than the Honda. I don't have smart tabs, as I needed on a smaller Caribe, but I do have the planing attachment on the outboard, so mine gets up and goes without any fuss. Maybe the planing attachment makes all the difference.
