Honda 9.9 HP Outboard for Sale: BF10 and BFP10

Honda's 9.9 HP motors carry the BF10 name and share their smooth twin cylinder platform with the BF8. They are some of the most popular sailboat auxiliaries and kicker motors around, thanks to quiet running, easy starting and the excellent BFP Power Thrust versions. Here is every Honda 9.9 HP outboard for sale in our stock.

Standard or Power Thrust?

Standard BF10s suit lighter boats such as inflatables and small aluminium boats. Power Thrust BFP10s use a lower gear ratio and a bigger prop to push heavy boats more effectively, with much better reverse thrust. For keelboats, heavy sailboats and kicker motors on big fishing boats, the BFP10 is usually the right choice.

Popular Setups

• Sailboat auxiliary: BFP10D3XHS or BFP10D3XHT, with a 25 inch shaft and electric start.
• Kicker motor: a Power Thrust model with power tilt and a shaft that matches the main engine.
• Inflatable or small boat: BF10D3SH or BF10DK3LH for simplicity.
• Small console boat: BF10DK3LR remote.

Mounting on a Sailboat

Use a strong, adjustable outboard bracket rated for the motor's weight. When lowered, the anti ventilation plate should sit a few inches below the waterline so the prop stays submerged as the stern lifts in waves. Electric start is worth having when the bracket is hard to reach from the cockpit, and the charging output can help keep a house battery topped up. Fit a safety line, and make sure the tiller can swing freely without hitting the backstay or pushpit.

Using a 9.9 as a Kicker

Mount the kicker beside the main engine, link the two with a tie bar so you can steer from the helm, and match shaft lengths where possible. A Power Thrust kicker holds slow, steady trolling speeds and gives you a get home motor if the main engine stops.

Care Tips

• Flush after salt water use.
• Change engine and gear oil on schedule.
• Use fresh fuel; kickers often sit for weeks, so a stabiliser helps.
• Tilt clear of the water when sailing.
