The high-thrust model offers the option of a 25-inch shaft and a V MAX SHO® sport cowling when used as a kicker on a multi-species boat.

PORTABILITY, PLUS

DISPLACEMENT

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.

Features & Benefits

Compact, lightweight design

A two-cylinder, single-overhead-camshaft platform and streamlined intake manifold provides an efficient, light design.

Responsive Acceleration

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.

Streamlined Intake

An intake silencer and manifold on the F9.9 and F8 result in more direct airflow, for minimum noise and maximum power. 

RELIABILITY & DURABILITY

OPTIMAL OPERATION

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.
