Here is every Nissan 9.8 HP outboard for sale in our stock.

Models in Stock

A3 is the generation, EPT marks electric start with power tilt, and the final digit identifies the version such as shaft length. Each product page lists the exact specification.

Common Uses

  • Inflatables and RIBs of 3 to 3.5 metres.
  • Sailboat auxiliaries on 7 to 9 metre boats.
  • Kicker motors for trolling on bigger boats.
  • Small boats on waters with a 10 HP limit.

Why the NSF9.8?

Light for its class

Easy to fit, remove and carry compared with many 10 HP motors.

Electric start and power tilt option

The NSF9.8A3EPT2 starts at the push of a button and tilts electrically, making it ideal for sailboats and kickers where the motor is hard to reach.

Simple design

A carbureted twin keeps maintenance simple, which suits boating far from service centres.

Affordable

One of the most budget friendly ways to get a twin cylinder four stroke.

Choosing a Version

Measure your transom first: about 15 inches suits a short shaft, about 20 inches a long shaft. Then decide between manual start and the electric start, power tilt model. Ask us to confirm the shaft length of each version before ordering.

Using It as a Kicker or Auxiliary

As a kicker, the NSF9.8 can troll for hours, saving fuel and hours on the main engine and doubling as a get home motor. On a sailboat, mount it on a strong adjustable bracket and tilt it clear when sailing.

Care Tips

  • Flush after salt water use.
  • Change engine and gear oil on schedule.
  • Drain the carburettor or use stabilised fuel before storage.
  • Keep the battery charged on the electric start model.

Is 9.8 HP Enough?

For most inflatables up to about 3.5 metres, a 9.8 HP motor will plane the boat with one or two people aboard. On small aluminium boats it gives brisk performance, and on sailboats of 7 to 9 metres it provides enough thrust to motor into a breeze and manoeuvre confidently. If you regularly carry heavy loads or need to cover longer distances quickly, the Nissan 15 is worth considering. Always stay within your boat's rated maximum horsepower.

Transport and Storage

Close the fuel vent and valve, carry the motor upright or on the side shown in the manual, and drain or stabilise fuel before storage.
