Why are there no 10 hp outboard motors? There are no 10 horsepower small outboards because of some specific state laws and rules. If you want a little 10 hp outboard boat motor the closest options are buying a 9.9 hp outboard motor or a 9.8 hp outboard engine. There are reasons why you can not buy a new small 10 hp outboard engine for your boat and those reasons are quite odd and unusual. A 10 horsepower boat motor hasn't been made for many decades!
In this video I discuss how we often hear about ten horsepower outboard motors but in reality, they don't actually exist. We are forced to buy a 9.9 Mercury outboard motor, or a 9.9 Suzuki outboard engine but none of the brands offer a 10 hp version. Yamaha, Tohatsu, Honda, Suzuki, Mercury and even back when Johnson and Evinrude were still outboard brands - you couldn't get a 10 hp version of their outboard motors. Find out why in this video!
