2020 Yamaha 9.9 HP T9.9LWHB Outboard Motor

Dual starting, both electric and a pull cord, sets the 2020 Yamaha T9.9LWHB apart on this high-thrust 9.9 hp two-cylinder platform, tiller-controlled on a 20-inch shaft and weighing 102 lbs, lighter than the electric-only tiller version of this same gearcase.

Who it suits

Having both starting methods on the T9.9LWHB means you are not stranded if a battery runs flat, which suits boats that spend time away from shore power or sit for weeks between trips. The high-thrust gearcase remains the choice here for pushing heavier hulls rather than chasing speed on open water, and a tiller keeps rigging simple on a small craft.

Before you order

A 20-inch shaft is fixed on the T9.9LWHB, so confirm that length matches your transom before ordering this configuration. This unit is sold new, with the dual starter setup already fitted at the factory rather than added later as an accessory.

Common questions

What happens if the battery runs down on this one? You can still pull-start the T9.9LWHB by hand.

Is this covered under warranty? Yes, coverage on the T9.9LWHB runs 3 years from your purchase date.

Does the T9.9LWHB run a carburetor? Yes, fuel delivery on this unit is carbureted, not injected.

Is the T9.9LWHB a good kicker for a sailboat? Its tiller control and dual starting suit that auxiliary role well.
