The Tohatsu M8B is made for boaters who expect steady performance without the bulk. Offering 8HP from a lightweight twin-cylinder 2-stroke engine, this compact outboard packs impressive strength into a frame that’s easy to carry, install, and control. Whether you opt for the 15″ short shaft or the 20″ long shaft, the M8B adapts to your vessel while keeping things simple, efficient, and dependable.

Key Features

• Twin-Cylinder Efficiency
  Powered by a 169cc 2-stroke engine with loop-charged induction, the M8B delivers consistent torque and smoother throttle response across its 4500–5500 rpm range—without adding unnecessary weight. At just 26–27 kg, it’s a strong choice for boaters who prioritize mobility.
• Short or Long Shaft Versatility
  • The 15″ short shaft is perfect for low transom inflatables, light dinghies, and tenders where weight and height matter.
  • The 20″ long shaft provides deeper reach and added control for larger hulls, deeper water, or unpredictable conditions.
• Marine-Grade Construction
  Featuring an aluminum casing, stainless steel water pump housing, and zinc-treated water passages, the M8B is built to resist corrosion and wear—even in saltwater settings.
• Quiet and Steady Operation
  A through-prop exhaust and thermostatically controlled water-cooling system keep the engine noise down and the temperature stable, ensuring smooth cruising during longer outings.
• Convenient Handling
  Tiller steering, twist-grip throttle, and forward-neutral-reverse shifting make the M8B easy to maneuver, even in tight marinas. It also includes a safety lanyard and a start-in-gear prevention system for added peace of mind.
• Fuel-Ready and Maintenance-Friendly
  With a separate 12L external fuel tank, a clean 50:1 oil mix, and low-maintenance ignition system, this motor is ready for anything from a quick run to a full day on the water.

Reliable, compact, and built for real-world boating—the Tohatsu M8B is everything you need in an 8HP outboard without the extra weight. Choose your shaft length and experience portable power you can count on.
