Tohatsu 9.8HP MFS9.8BSPRO Sail Pro Short

Specifically tuned for the unique demands of small sailboats, the Tohatsu 9.8HP MFS9.8BSPRO Sail Pro serves as a specialized propulsion solution for US sailors requiring a prop-rated unit with superior low-speed thrust. This 9.8HP four-stroke technology utilizes a high-thrust propeller and a 12V 80W charging system to maximize battery maintenance while under power in coastal waters. The 15-inch short shaft design provides an optimized center of gravity for low-profile transoms, while the manual start and tiller configuration ensure reliable operation across diverse marine environments.

Operational longevity of the MFS9.8BSPRO model is secured through a specialized water-cooled system featuring a zinc-coated internal water passage to maintain internal cleanliness. To facilitate easy after-storage starts, the unit employs a sophisticated digital CD ignition system paired with a 6A alternator, while the Tohatsu High-Grade Marine Alloy utilizes a multi-layer finish to mitigate oxidation. With a 100-hour service interval and a unique exhaust relief system for improved reverse thrust, this fuel-efficient outboard provides superior ownership value for sailors seeking specialized reach and maneuvering control.
