Honda 9.9HP Portable Outboard | BF10DK3SHS

The Honda BF10DK3SHS is a 9.9 hp portable four-stroke built on a short 15-inch shaft with tiller steering and combined electric-and-manual starting, weighing 102 pounds, aimed at a low-transom boat where the owner still wants push-button convenience.

Short shaft with electric start

This pairs the shortest shaft offered in the 9.9 hp lineup with electric starting, a less common combination than the longer-leg electric-start versions in the same series; it suits a low-transom jon boat, dinghy, or small runabout where the owner does not want to pull-start every time. A short shaft that is too long for your transom raises cavitation risk, so measure carefully before ordering, ideally against the boat itself rather than a similar-looking model.

Specifications and what is included

The 222cc, carbureted, four-stroke twin here reaches a 5000-6000 rpm range at full throttle and weighs 102 pounds. The manual pull-cord remains as backup starting if the battery is low or disconnected. In the box: a stop-switch lanyard, an external 3-gallon fuel tank and its fuel line, the standard propeller, a charging system, and the owner's manual, all covered by Honda's 5-year powerhead warranty.

Will a 15-inch shaft work on a pontoon? Only if your transom height matches; many pontoons need a longer leg from elsewhere in this series. Is a battery included? No, you supply your own starting battery.
