Yamaha Outboards 8HP | F8SMHB

Our 212-cc 8-hp portable outboard features 7.5% 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. SMART EVOLUTION The F8 features a new shorter handle for more comfortable operation. This also ensures that when the handle in hinged back, it tucks in tighter to the cowl for more stable, flexible storage.  PORTABILITY AND STORAGE Built-in front and rear handles make these lightweights easy to carry. Resting pads and an easy oil retention system allow for convenient on-side storage without cowling scuffs or oil leakage.  PROPELLER PROTECTION Yamaha’s Shallow Water Drive, standard on all 8-hp tiller handle models, helps keep the propeller and lower unit out of harm’s way in shallow water.
