Suzuki 9.9 HP DF9.9BTS Outboard Motor

The DF9.9BTS moves steering off the tiller handle and onto a remote control station, pairing Suzuki's 9.9 hp four-stroke with a 15-inch shaft, electric start and power tilt. At 118.0000 pounds, it is built for a console-steered boat rather than a tiller-steered skiff, so confirm that rigging matches what your boat already has.

Remote steering versus a tiller handle

Because steering and throttle run from a remote control box rather than from the motor, make sure your boat already has that control setup, or the matching cables, before ordering; it is not a drop-in swap for a tiller-steered model. Power tilt and multiple trim positions let you set the running angle right from the helm.

Shaft length to confirm before buying

This particular configuration ships with the short, 15-inch shaft, so confirm that length against your transom with us; some promotional copy for this family of motors describes a deeper-transom use case that does not describe this specific unit. It turns a 3-blade aluminum propeller and runs on electronic fuel injection fed by a built-in charging alternator.

What ships with it

Suzuki includes the 3.1-gallon tank and fuel line, an owner's manual, the propeller and a tool kit with this motor, and backs it with a three-year warranty. Keep in mind that remote-steering hardware, including the control box and cables, needs to match this motor at your helm, so confirm your rigging before ordering.

Is this steered from a wheel or from a handle on the motor? Remote control, meant for console or wheel steering.

Does it include power tilt? Yes, adjustable across multiple trim positions.

Does it retain a manual backup start? The listing describes push-button electric starting with a charging alternator; confirm backup-start details with us if that matters for your use.
