The Yamaha T9.9LPB 9.9 HP High Thrust 4-Stroke Outboard Motor is your ideal choice. This 9.9 horsepower engine, indeed, belongs to Yamaha’s renowned High Thrust series. It features a larger lower unit and a higher gear ratio for dramatically increased pushing power in both forward and reverse.
It boasts a versatile 20-inch long shaft, convenient electric start (with manual backup), and power tilt. This makes it an excellent kicker motor for larger fishing boats, a dependable auxiliary for mid-sized sailboats or pontoons, or a robust primary for heavy tenders. Crucially, the T9.9LPB combines impressive strength and ease of use with Yamaha’s legendary four-stroke efficiency and durability. It thus ensures quiet, fuel-efficient operation and long-term reliability.
Why the T9.9LPB High Thrust Excels: Enhanced Thrust, 20-Inch Shaft Versatility, and Power Tilt Convenience
Boaters who consistently push heavy loads, need precise low-speed control, or navigate challenging conditions will find the Yamaha T9.9LPB High Thrust truly excels. Primarily, its specialized High Thrust design features a larger gearcase and a significantly higher gear ratio (2.92:1). This translates into substantially more pushing power.
This is especially critical for heavy pontoons, sailboats, and as a trolling motor for large fishing boats. Furthermore, a standard Dual Thrust™ propeller optimizes this power. It redirects exhaust flow for up to 60% more forward thrust and an impressive 70% more thrust in reverse.
This provides incredible stopping and maneuvering capability. In addition, the 20-inch long shaft (L-length) allows for optimal mounting on vessels with standard transoms. The propeller remains submerged even in choppy conditions or with heavy loads.
The convenient power tilt, moreover, allows effortless engine angle adjustment. This is a significant advantage for shallow water operation, trailering, or simply clearing debris. Therefore, the T9.9LPB delivers powerful, dependable performance with remarkable control, year after year.
Core Features of Your Yamaha T9.9LPB 9.9 HP High Thrust Outboard
High Thrust (T-Series) Design
The T9.9LPB’s defining characteristic is its High Thrust “T” series designation. This means Yamaha built it with a unique lower unit. It features a larger gearcase and a significantly higher gear ratio (2.92:1). This specialized design lets it swing a larger, low-pitch propeller. This generates immense pushing power for heavy loads. It also provides exceptional thrust for precise maneuvering, particularly in reverse.
Optimized for Torque and Control
The T9.9LPB is purpose-built for torque, unlike conventional outboards designed for speed. Its 212cc In-Line 2 four-stroke engine delivers robust power to the large propeller. This ensures strong acceleration even with heavy loads and precise low-speed control. Such control is essential for docking, maneuvering in tight spaces, or precise trolling.
Dual Thrust™ Propeller (Standard)
The T9.9LPB comes standard with Yamaha’s innovative Dual Thrust™ propeller. These propellers feature a larger diameter and a unique design. This redirects exhaust flow to provide significantly enhanced thrust in both forward and reverse. This dramatically improves stopping power and low-speed maneuverability. It’s crucial for heavy boats.
Long (20-inch) Shaft
The “L” in T9.9LPB specifies a 20-inch shaft length. This makes it ideal for kicker motor applications on many fishing boats. It’s also great for auxiliary power for sailboats or other vessels with standard transom heights. This ensures the propeller remains submerged even in challenging conditions.
Electric Start
The T9.9LPB includes electric start for convenient push-button ignition. This provides effortless starting, making it quick and easy to get on the water or to engage the kicker when needed. It also features a manual recoil backup for added peace of mind.
Power Tilt
The “P” denotes Power Tilt. This essential feature allows you to conveniently tilt the engine up or down with a simple button press. You’ll find this button on the remote control box or tiller. This is perfect for shallow water operation, clearing debris, beaching, or simply raising the engine for trailering or storage. No manual lifting is necessary.
Remote Control Operation
The T9.9LPB is designed for remote mechanical control. This means it connects to a remote control box at your boat’s helm or console. This provides precise throttle, shift, and steering control for a more comfortable and integrated boating experience.
Portable Design with Carry Handles and Resting Pads
Despite its robust features, Yamaha designed the T9.9LPB for portability. It features convenient carry handles for easier lifting and transport. Built-in resting pads also allow you to store the engine on its side without oil leakage, simplifying storage in tight spaces.
High Output Alternator
An integrated 6-amp alternator powers the T9.9LPB. It generates sufficient power to keep your boat’s battery charged. It also runs essential electronics, lights, and other accessories, even during extended idling or slow trolling.
Durable and Reliable Construction
Yamaha built the T9.9LPB with its legendary quality. It features a robust design. This includes a carbureted fuel induction system, a microcomputer-controlled ignition, and a wet sump lubrication system. An oil retention system for side storage is also included. Yamaha’s advanced anti-corrosion protection further enhances durability. It is engineered to withstand the rigors of heavy-duty use and provide years of trouble-free operation.
Freshwater Flushing Device
A convenient freshwater flushing device is integrated into the engine. This allows you to easily flush salt and debris from the cooling passages without running the engine. This greatly extends your outboard’s lifespan, especially after saltwater use.
Perfect Applications for Your T9.9LPB High Thrust Outboard
