Mid-Power Portable

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, with the 9.9 offering several options including new pearlescent white styling or a high-thrust model with an optional V MAX SHO®-style sport cowl. Add a little more power to your day with Yamaha’s portable F9.9 and F8.
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.
