How to choose an outboard motor
Horsepower: stay within the maximum horsepower on your boat's capacity plate. Shaft length: match the transom height, short (15") or long (20") for most small boats. Our outboard shaft length guide shows how to measure. Steering and starting: tiller motors are steered from the motor itself, remote motors need a steering system, and some models offer electric start. Our guides to the parts of an outboard motor and outboard trim and tilt explain the controls.
Frequently asked questions
Are these outboards four-stroke?
Yes. All the Suzuki and Honda gasoline outboards we sell are four-stroke motors. The Torqeedo motors are electric.
What shaft length do I need?
Measure your transom from the top to the bottom of the hull. Around 15 inches calls for a short shaft and around 20 inches for a long shaft. See our shaft length guide.
What size outboard motor do I need?
Start with the maximum horsepower on your boat's capacity plate, then size the motor for the boat's length, load and use. Our outboard sizing guide lists typical ranges by boat type.
How do I maintain a four-stroke outboard?
Check the oil before each trip, flush with fresh water after use, and change the engine oil, gear oil and other service items at the intervals in the owner's manual. See our outboard motor maintenance checklist.
What is the difference between an inboard and an outboard motor?
An outboard is a self-contained engine, gearbox and propeller unit mounted on the transom and steered by turning the whole motor. An inboard engine sits inside the hull and drives a propeller on a shaft under the boat. See inboard vs outboard motors.
How much is shipping on an outboard?
A flat $75 to any US state. See the shipping policy.
What is the cheapest outboard motor you sell?
The lowest-priced outboard here is the Suzuki DF2.5 short shaft at $820, followed by the Honda BF2.3 at $999.99. Both are new four-stroke portable motors. See outboard motor prices for every size.
Can I use a small outboard as a kicker motor?
Yes. A kicker motor is a small auxiliary outboard mounted beside the main engine for trolling or as a backup, and portable and tiller outboards are the usual choice. Check that the transom or kicker bracket is rated for the motor's weight and horsepower, and pick the shaft length that suits the bracket height.
How much does an outboard motor cost?
Price rises with horsepower. Our gas outboards run from $820 for the Suzuki DF2.5 to $5,160 for a 30 HP Suzuki DF30A, and the Torqeedo Travel electric outboards cost $1,569 to $3,348 depending on the battery. See outboard motor prices for every model.
What does an outboard motor do?
An outboard motor is a self-contained engine, gearbox and propeller that clamps or bolts to a boat's transom and pushes the boat. You steer by turning the whole motor, with a tiller handle or a remote steering system. Parts of an outboard motor explains how it works.
