Tohatsu 9.9HP | MFS9.9EEFTUL

Add the 25-inch ultra-long shaft to power tilt and you land on the Tohatsu 9.9HP MFS9.9EEFTUL, roughly 121 lbs, with electric start and a manual backup both present.

Why both features together

Boats needing this shaft's extra reach often also change load or trim through the day, which is exactly where push-button tilt earns its keep over a hand lever at the stern. This stays the 333cc EFI engine, spinning 5400 up to 6100 rpm at full throttle, same as the rest of this family.

Weight and what's in the box

At roughly 121 lbs, the combination of the long shaft and the tilt mechanism makes this one of the heavier builds covered here. Parts included: the propeller, a 3.1-gallon tank and its fuel line, the power tilt hardware, a tool kit, a lanyard-style kill switch, an owner's manual, and the charging circuit that backs electric start. A 5-year Tohatsu warranty applies, the same term stated across this whole engine family.

Is manual start available if the battery dies? Yes, a manual start method is retained.

Does it include a fuel tank? Yes, the 3.1-gallon tank and its fuel line are part of the package.

Does it have power tilt? Yes, that's the feature this version adds over a plain long-shaft motor.

Shaft length? 25 inches, the longest offered on this engine.
