2018 Yamaha F20 Portable Tiller ES F20SEHA Ouboard Motor

Rather than a console, this F20SEHA is worked by hand through a tiller handle right at the stern; it runs on a 15-inch shaft, starts electrically, and this listing gives it a dry weight of 117 lbs.

Tiller handling on a short shaft

A 15-inch shaft keeps the motor sized for smaller, lighter hulls, which is a different fit than the 20-inch tiller trims Yamaha builds on this same engine, so confirm your transom before assuming either will interchange. Trim adjusts between -4 and +16 degrees and tilt tops out at 67 degrees, both adjusted manually right where the tiller handle sits rather than through any remote control.

A pressurized wet-sump oil pump, CDI microcomputer ignition and an automatic system that trims rpm back on overheat or low oil pressure all support reliable running, and a built-in fitting lets the engine be flushed with fresh water between outings.

Because this is the electric-start tiller build, it suits boats that already carry a battery for other onboard accessories, letting the starter draw off that same bank rather than needing a dedicated pull-cord backup for reliability.
