Tips for selecting the right size hp for Portable outboard motors:
8 – 9.8 hp (25-45kg)
Small but mighty outboards that pack a powerful punch. This hp range is quite popular for use with inflatable boats 3m – 4.5m, aluminium boats 3m – 4.5m in length, larger sturdy canoes, larger portable folding boats, and lighter fiberglass boats up to 4.5m. These hulls typically range in weight from 34kg – 136kg and require a 15” short shaft length outboard. Engines in this hp range are also available in 20” long shaft and 25” extra-long shaft length making them ideal choices for sail boats and emergency kicker motors. Engines in this hp range are ideal for sail boats ranging from 5m – 8m. Newer four-stroke outboards in this range are equipped with advanced features such as audible and visual warning indicators for low oil pressure and overheating. Electric start and 12v charging capabilities are usually offered with optional models in this hp range. Most engines in this range feature 2-cylinders for greatly improved planning time and performance, as well as reduced vibration that is typical of 1-cylinder outboards. Outboards in this hp range have separate fuel tanks ranging from 10 litres (common with 4-strokes) to 24 litres (common with 2-strokes).
What you can expect:
- Engines in this range will propel most hulls at approx. 15-28kmh with one to two persons and/or a light to moderate load
- Excellent choice for gasoline trolling motors, sailboat power, and emergency auxiliary kicker motors, especially 25" shaft applications
- 2-cylinder design for improved performance and weight handling, reduced vibration, and smoother operation
- Some engines in this range include advanced features typically found only on larger outboards (electric start, audible/visible warning, etc...)
- Many makes in this range offer electric start w/ 12V battery charging
- Some makes offer lightweight, compact, easily transportable models
