Does Mobill 1 high mileage extended performance 10W40 have the same or better wear inhibitors as conventional Yamalube 10W40? Looking for options with my twin Yamaha F150’s.
 
There's no 10w-40 of extended performance only 10w-30 in regular and high mileage.

That engine is a timing belt driven dohc so you don't need anything crazy. You can use what's liked above with no problem. In reality you can use anything in it that's at least a 40 grade so all 40 grade euro and diesel oils are a great option. The clutch dog is in the lower unit and that has its own oil being 80w-90 if I'm not mistaken. I think I'd focus more on the lower unit and timing belt service.

I remember seeing a virgin analysis of yamalube 10w-40 and it's nothing spectacular. I quickly found it so I'll post it here.

That was a very helpful answer to OP's question.

Here’s why I like Yamalube are marine specific oils… As read on Valvoline’s site:

MARINE AND AUTOMOTIVE ENGINE OILS ARE NOT INTERCHANGEABLE, WHY?

The two primary reasons for this: water and wear. Consider that corrosion caused by water is a primary concern for marine engines. Oils made for cars are not required to provide the high level of corrosion protection compared to marine engines as the operating environment is subjected to higher levels of moisture/water. Because 4 stroke outboard engines spend long periods running at extremes of speed and can spend long periods out of use, they have very specific requirements for anti-corrosion and anti-wear protection compared to what car engine oils require

You wouldn't happen to have the analysis of the Mobil 1 High Mileage Full Synthetic Motor Oil 10w40? I'd love to see a side-by-side comparison. I'd have to assume that the High Mileage oil has corrosion/ anti wear inhibitors as well if not more. I normally run Yamalube in my outboards but swapped over to the Mobil 1 High Mileage Full Synthetic as a test run along with the Mobile 1 Extended Performance filter vs the Yamaha rebranded Denso filter.
