Swapped out a heavy, aging V6 for this inline-4 on my 22ft deep-V hull. The weight savings combined with the extra 25″ shaft length completely transformed how the boat sits and handles in a rough chop. Hole shot is instantaneous.
The 212cc twin-cylinder engine on this F9.9 is incredibly smooth and quiet. But honestly, the customer service made the entire buying process even better. I called with a quick question about rigging and shaft length specs, and their support team was friendly, knowledgeable, and had me sorted in under two minutes.
I spent two days double-checking part numbers and calling customer service because the discount felt too good to be true compared to local marine dealer quotes. It arrived flawless in the factory crate and saved me over a grand.
Having push-button power trim right on the tiller handle for a 15″ transom motor is a complete game changer. It makes running shallow river beds or trimming up at the boat ramp completely effortless. No more manually lifting or pinning the engine.
I called two local marinas first and both were charging almost $1,200 more for the exact same model. Shipping was fast, packaging was bulletproof, and the performance on the water is classic Yamaha reliability. Couldn’t be happier with the purchase.
