Compact, Lightweight Design: A two-cylinder, single-overhead-camshaft platform and streamlines intake manifold provides an efficient, light design.

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 8hp tiller handle models, helps keep the propeller and lower unit out of harm’s way in shallow water.
