BF200 – BF250

Excellent Piece of Engineering

Honda’s acclaimed BF250 and BF200 models deliver awesome V6 power with easy maintenance and tough corrosion resistance. Combining sleek aerodynamic styling, innovative features, and famous Honda reliability, the BF250 and BF200 outboards take legendary Honda performance into new waters.

The BF250 and BF200 feature the option of Honda’s exclusive Intelligent Shift and Throttle (iST) for effortless, masterful control and the ultimate in custom tailored command

Of course, the BF250 and BF200 are packed with the famous technological advances Honda outboard owners love. Like BLAST for maximum holeshot performance and Lean Burn Control for remarkable fuel efficiency. BF250 and BF200 models include VTEC® for explosive mid-range torque.

Whether you’re chasing horizons, sportsfishing, or enjoying an afternoon with friends and family, the BF250 and 200 are ready. So get out on the water – and bring Honda’s very best with you.

POWERFUL PERFORMANCE

POWER WHERE AND WHEN YOU NEED IT.

Honda’s exclusive VTEC technology offers a superior combination of power, torque, and fuel economy. (250hp)

DUAL OVERHEAD CAM (DOHC)

The 24-valve DOHC configuration offers increased high-rpm power.

DUAL STAGE INDUCTION

Dual Stage Induction maximizes air input for combustion. (250hp)

QUIETEST IN ITS CLASS

The BF200 and 250 are the quietest outboards in their class. Meaning you get to enjoy more of the great outdoors, and less engine noise

SUPERIOR FUEL EFFICIENCY

BEST IN CLASS FUEL EFFICIENCY

Lean Burn Control increases fuel efficiency by allowing combustion to operate on a leaner air/fuel mixture. At cruising speed, this engine runs on up to 20% less fuel than others in its class..

PGM-FI

Multi-port Programmed Fuel Injection adds both easy starts and improved fuel efficiency – without sacrificing performance.

LEGENDARY RELIABILITY

HONDA QUALITY

Our outboards share many technologies and components used in Honda vehicles, with all the benefits of years of proven Honda engineering, precision manufacturing and reliability.

EXTREME DUTY GEARCASE

Honda’s high performance gear case is designed specifically to withstand the extreme duty cycles of law enforcement and military patrol boats for maximum performance and durability.

ENGINE ALERT SYSTEM

The Engine Alert System monitors vital engine functions and prevents engine damage by alerting the operator of: overheating, water in fuel, low oil PSI, battery, over-rev, and critical engine function.

2-PASS COOLING SYSTEM

The unique cooling system passes through each aluminum exhaust manifold, the cylinder heads, and once again through the exhaust manifolds. This results in increased cooling efficiency and long-term durability.

TOUGH CORROSION RESISTANCE

Critical interior components use a high corrosion resistant aluminum alloy, resulting in a more durable engine and gear case.

Extra anodes provide longer life.

Bolts and brackets are treated with a special HI-M coating for superior surface finishing and corrosion resistance.

Honda’s exclusive 4-Front Corrosion Protection System offers a patented, double-sealed multi-layered paint process.

Fresh water flushport flushes debris and saltwater out of the engine.

A fresh water flushport flushes debris and saltwater out of the engine.

SIMPLE, EFFORTLESS CONTROL

Honda’s exclusive Intelligent Shift and Throttle (iST) command and control system delivers superb control plus plug-and-play installation of Honda Marine products and third-party controls and devices.

iST offers multi-engine applications, with fine tuning of throttle settings at any speed, enhanced docking and slow speed control, and a simple, easy to understand user interface. Available on select BF200 and 250 models.

For dual outboards, integration with Dometic’s Optimus 360 joystick steering system makes maneuvering so much easier. Dometic’s SeaWays keeps you headed in right direction and SeaStation’s virtual anchoring system keeps you positioned over wrecks in hundreds of feet of water.

EASY OWNERSHIP

SIMPLIFIED MAINTENANCE

The little things make a big difference. The BF115, 135, and 150 are designed to reduce maintenance time for routine tasks like oil and filter changes.

ON-BOARD CONNECTIVITY

NMEA 2000 protocols allow engine data to be interfaced with on-board systems and systems displays, such as SONAR or GPS.

3 LATCH LOCK & SEAL COVER

Easy to remove and carry the cover, simplifying maintenance access.

EXTRA CHARGING POWER

SAVE YOUR BATTERY WITH AMP+

At idle, when the engine senses a need for additional amperage, AMP+ automatically increases the rpm’s by 100 to produce an additional 9 amps. This helps prevent the draining of critical battery power when using multiple accessories.

HIGH OUTPUT CHARGING FOR MORE USABLE POWER

The charging system features a 90 amp “On Demand” belt-driven alternator with 60 charging amps. This superior design reduces heat buildup and provides outstanding battery charging across the RPM range.

ATTRACTIVE OPTIONS

Boaters who prefer traditional controls will enjoy Honda’s smooth operating mechanical command and control system, with a responsive, reliable design. Supports up to two engines and a single-helm location as well as a side-mount configuration..

Or choose the latest technology with Honda’s iST for superb control and easy installation of a variety of displays and devices. iST supports up to 4 engines and two control stations
