Featuring an Ultra-Long 25" Shaft, it is specifically designed for sailboats with high transoms and offshore auxiliary use where standard shafts might lift out of the water. This model offers the ultimate starting versatility with both Electric and Manual Start, powered by a silky-smooth twin-cylinder 4-stroke engine that remains the lightest in its class globally.
Deep-Draft Precision in Elegant Beluga White
The Tohatsu MFS9.8CWEFUL (MPN: MFS9.8CWEFUL) is more than just a portable motor; it is a dedicated workhorse for the sailing community. The 25-inch shaft provides the necessary depth to maintain constant propeller grip in rolling seas, preventing cavitation. Dressed in premium Beluga White, it offers a modern, high-end aesthetic that perfectly complements sailboats and yacht tenders while providing industry-leading corrosion protection.
This "EF" model provides dual starting security: the convenience of electric start at the push of a button and a manual recoil backup for total self-reliance. Its 2-cylinder SOHC architecture delivers a balanced power-to-weight ratio, producing significantly less vibration than single-cylinder alternatives. With an integrated 12V 80W (6.7A) charging system, your navigation lights and electronics stay powered throughout your voyage.
