Honda BF9.9DK3LHC 9.9HP 4-Stroke Outboard – 20in Shaft, Tiller

Place Honda BF9.9DK3LHC on a mid-size utility boat, large tender, or sailboat kicker installation when a 20-inch shaft and direct tiller control are needed. Its 222 cc OHC two-cylinder 4-stroke engine uses four valves and produces 9.9 HP. Honda BF9.9DK3LHC is a portable outboard with a single carburetor, manual recoil starting, tiller steering, manual tilt, a 6-amp alternator, and low-vibration mounts. The long shaft suits compatible 20-inch transoms.

At 99 lbs dry, the motor should be included in the boat’s transom, storage, and transport calculations. Its 5,000–6,000 RPM full-throttle range provides a reference for propeller selection, while the 2.33:1 gear ratio supports forward, neutral, and reverse operation. The high-output 222 cc engine gives the model its 9.9 HP rating without requiring remote rigging. Confirm the boat’s transom height, horsepower limit, propeller setup, and service requirements before use.
