Island Hopper- The newest Japanese small outboard motor
Using the latest advanced, state of the art technology to create a
brand new concept in the small outboard motor industry. This new
technology is used to eliminate certain age old problems in small
outboards on the market today, such as:
- Meets CARB TIER II: EPA stringent exhaust emission regulations.
- Anti-Vibration System: To isolate tiller handle from engine housing.
- Ergonomically Friendly: The tiller handle has a built in throttle control, kill switch, isolating bushings to alleviate wrist fatigue while under way, plus a special feature “Lock In Trolling” mode for slow cruising.
- Centrifugal Clutch: Built to last, designed with steel friction pads,
as opposed to wearable fibrous type.
- Clutch Housing: Hardened steel, heatproof bearings with side shields prevent moisture and corrosion.
- Propeller: Made of polypropylene, resists damage caused by rocks and shells.
- Drive Shaft: Hardened chromoly steel, solid 7mm splined shaft on both ends for precision connection to the lower gear prop and clutch housing.
- CDI: Coil specifically designed to emit high voltage to the spark plug, which allows for easy engine starting.
- Muffler: Heavy steel gauge, glass packed, internal double noise dampening plate baffles, designed to improve annoying tinning muffler sound often found on 2 and 4 stroke air cooled engines.
- Air filter: Plastic baffle between the carburetor air intake and air filter cover, this reduces engine noise and helps in preventing moisture from entering gas chamber and fouling spark plug.
- Cooling System: Engine is equipped with additional cooling fins on the fly wheel to further dissipate heat from the cylinder head allowing the engine to run cooler.
- Gas Tank: Built with a safety release valve when closed, it also allows for secure transport, preventing accidental spills. Capacity -
32oz.
- Lower Gear Case: Packed with waterproof marine grease in place of gear oil, this allows it
to last for the life of the outboard, without replacement or maintenance.
- Shaft: Outer housing and gear case are made of aluminum and are
powder-coated to withstand salt and brackish waters.
- Shaft Housing: Solid chromoly shaft is supported by five bushings to minimize vibration, warping, lashing as well as wear and tear.
- Motor Mount: Strong lightweight universal mount, allows for tilt and trim as well as height adjustment for running in shallow water.
- Assembly: Outboard is shipped 98% assembled, and includes a tool kit.
- Weight: The motor only weighs an amazing 20 pounds.
- Dependability: Besides using the latest Japanese technology,
Island Hopper motors are built as simply as possible.
- Efficient air cooling is used- there is no water pump impellor
to fail nor salt water flowing through the motor to corrode
internal parts.
- No complicated lower unit.
- The motors utilize a simple centrifugal clutch, which is in
neutral when the motor is idling.
- The less moving parts there are, the less there is to go wrong.
- Ease of service: Island Hopper motors are designed to
eliminate the hassle of having to deal with Honda or Yamaha or any
other service department. No more wasted time and high expense of
parts and labor cost. Say for instance you have trouble with the
carburetor after your warranty expires; you can get a new one from us
for only $18.00. You can replace the whole powerhead for only $120.00!
Island Hopper motors are designed so that you can easily replace any
parts yourself with simple hand tools. Island Hopper has dedicated outboard technicians manning the phone to assist consumers with any questions or issues regarding their newly purchased outboards.
- Warranty: Island Hopper offers a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects and workmanship through Island Hopper.
- And most of all- PRICE: You will save hundreds of dollars
over any other brand.
So choose Island Hopper, the world's best little outboard!
