Yamaha 9.9HP High Thrust | T9.9XPHB

The T9.9XPHB takes the same high-thrust 9.9 hp, 212cc, two-cylinder engine as its console-steered sibling and puts it behind a tiller handle instead, so throttle, shift and steering are all worked from the stern. It runs the same 25-inch shaft and dual-thrust aluminum prop, and comes in a bit heavier at 114 lbs dry. Anyone switching from a remote-steer boat to this motor should know it will not bolt on without a tiller mount; conversely, owners already set up for a tiller handle gain a motor built to work from there rather than a console. The lower-unit gearing on this T-series trim is tuned for pulling power at low rpm, which is the main reason anglers pick it as an auxiliary or kicker motor rather than for outright speed. Setup to confirm first A 25-inch shaft suits a taller transom, so get a tape measure on the boat before ordering. Plan hoist or davit capacity around 114 lbs, and keep in mind that electric start is the only starting method listed for this particular unit. Questions buyers ask What ships with the motor? A fuel line and a safety lanyard come along with the propeller and lower unit already fitted, plus the printed owner's manual. Why is it called "high-thrust"? The gearing is built to push harder at low rpm than a standard F9.9. Can you confirm the exact warranty term?
