About the motor

Yamaha F8LMHB — 8 HP

Yamaha F8LMHB is a four-stroke outboard motor rated at 8 HP (5,9 kW at the propeller shaft), successor to the F8FMHL. Engine: SOHC, rzędowy 2, displacement 212 cm³, 1 gaźnik. Dry weight: 40–43 kg.

The tiller version — you steer directly with the handle, with throttle and shift at hand, no console or cables. A practical choice for inflatables, tenders and smaller RIBs. The model has manual pull start and manual angle adjustment (trim in several positions).

Shaft length L (20″ / 508 mm). The shaft is matched to the boat’s transom height so that the anti-cavitation plate runs just below the water surface. Transom height for this shaft according to Yamaha: 558 mm.

Fuel consumption at full power according to Yamaha: 3,3 L/h @5500 obr/min. At the GRAND BOATS Poland service centre in Łężyce near Gdynia we install the engine, do the rigging and choose the propeller. The engine is supplied in cooperation with an authorised Yamaha dealer; the manufacturer warranty (3 + 2 years) is carried out by an authorised Yamaha service.
