Yamaha’s mid-powered Portables, the F9.9 and F8, provide nimble, lightweight, efficient power you can take with you. These SOHC 212cc two-cylinder wonders are both under 90 pounds. They feature carrying handles, resting pads and on-side storage capability; so they easily ride along to the cabin or your hunting spot. With forward-mounted controls and optional power tilt, they make operation easy—perfect for spending a full day fishing the lake or skimming the marsh with your decoys. They also serve as excellent kickers on multi-species boats, with the 9.9 even offering a high-thrust model and an optional V MAX SHO®-style sport cowl for a consistent look. Add a little more power to your day with Yamaha’s portable F9.9 and F8.
Yamaha’s 8-hp Portable has stepped up its displacement to 212cc, joining its 9.9-hp big bro. Still, both feature light weights under 90 pounds, for one of the most impressive power-to-weight ratios in the horsepower class.
A two-cylinder, single-overhead-camshaft platform and streamlined intake manifold provides an efficient, light design.
An acceleration pump on the F9.9 and F8 gives these engines the fuel they need--when they need it--like during rapid throttle advance. This ensures responsive acceleration.
An intake silencer and manifold on the F9.9 and F8 result in more direct airflow, for minimum noise and maximum power.
A CDI Microcomputer Ignition monitors throttle position, engine speed and atmospheric conditions in order to precisely adjust ignition timing under all conditions for optimum ignition performance, ensuring smooth and reliable operation
Yamaha Portable
Our 212-cc 9.9-hp portable is an impressive little outboard with a new, shorter tiller handle for increased comfort and the option of manual or electric start. The F9.9 platform is so popular, we also offer it in a high-thrust T9.9 format. The high-thrust model offers the option of a 25-inch shaft and a V MAX SHO® sport cowl when used as a kicker on a multi-species boat.
Our 212-cc 8-hp portable outboard features 7.5 percent more displacement than its previous design. This SOHC two-cylinder four stroke delivers a nice balance of power, performance and portability for jon boats and inflatables. Its new, shorter tiller handle makes operation more comfortable, so you can make a whole day of it.
† Weight refers to shortest shaft length, and is measured without motor oil, gearcase oil and propeller (except models 25 hp and under, which include a standard propeller). All Jet model weights include the jet pump assembly (weight estimated).
