20 HP

Suzuki 20 HP Outboard for Sale: The DF20A

The DF20A is one of the most popular small outboards Suzuki makes, and with good reason. It delivers 20 horsepower from a compact, fuel injected twin that weighs little more than many 15 HP motors, so boats get on plane faster and stay there with a full load. With eighteen versions in our stock, there is a Suzuki 20 HP outboard for sale here to suit tiller boats, console boats and everything between.

Who Buys a Suzuki 20 HP?

• Owners of 3.8 to 4.6 metre jon boats and aluminium fishing boats who want quick planing with two or three aboard.
• RIB and inflatable owners who want strong performance from a motor that is still manageable to fit.
• Small centre console and side console boat owners, using the remote DF20AT versions.
• Commercial users and rental fleets who need dependable small boat power.

DF20A Highlights

Strong power to weight

Because the DF20A shares its light body with the DF15A, you get a meaningful jump in performance with almost no weight penalty. That helps small hulls that are sensitive to weight on the transom.

Fuel injection without a battery

Manual start models use battery-less EFI, so they start reliably and run cleanly even with no battery on board.

Remote or tiller

Few 20 HP motors come in as many configurations. Remote models connect to standard controls and steering, while tiller models keep things simple.

Choosing Your DF20A

1. Measure your transom: about 15 inches for S, about 20 inches for L.
2. Decide on steering: tiller for open boats, remote (AT) for consoles.
3. Decide on starting: pull start for simplicity, electric for convenience and battery charging.
4. Choose power tilt if you often run in shallow water or launch from beaches.

Remote models need a control box, cables, steering and a battery, which are usually sold separately. Ask us if you need a complete rigging quote.

Running Costs

A fuel injected four stroke like the DF20A uses noticeably less fuel than an older carbureted two stroke of the same power, and there is no oil to mix. Routine care is simple: change the engine oil and gear oil at the intervals in the manual, check the water pump impeller and anode, flush after salt water use and keep fuel fresh. A well looked after DF20A should give many seasons of trouble free use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Suzuki 20 HP much heavier than the 15?

No, they share the same basic body, which is why many owners choose the 20 if their boat is rated for it.

Can I steer the remote version with a tiller?

No. Choose a tiller (H) model if you want tiller steering.

Do you ship worldwide?

Yes, with a freight quote before you pay.
