The Honda BF225DUDA represents Honda’s premier V6 outboard engineering, delivering robust 225 horsepower through a sophisticated 3.6-liter SOHC V6 engine designed for serious offshore and commercial applications. The ultra-long 30″ shaft configuration makes this outboard ideal for larger center console boats, sportfishers, and vessels with deeper transoms requiring extended shaft length for optimal propeller positioning and performance.
The revolutionary iST® (Intelligent Shift and Throttle) drive-by-wire system provides instantaneous electronic throttle response and seamless shifting, eliminating traditional cable lag for enhanced boat handling and maneuverability. This advanced system supports up to four engines and two control stations, featuring user-programmable system defaults, enhanced docking capabilities, and intuitive interfaces that make complex boat handling effortless.
Built upon Honda’s proven automotive engineering foundation, the BF225DUDA features Honda’s exclusive VTEC® technology that optimizes power delivery across the entire RPM range, delivering explosive mid-range torque when acceleration matters most. The innovative dual air circuit induction system maximizes airflow for superior combustion efficiency, while BLAST™ technology aggressively advances ignition timing for dramatically improved hole shots and acceleration.
Honda’s legendary reliability shines through with the advanced PGM-FI fuel injection system, ensuring optimal fuel delivery in all conditions while meeting stringent CARB emissions standards. The Lean Burn Control technology delivers exceptional fuel efficiency by optimizing the air-fuel mixture during cruising speeds, providing up to 20% better fuel economy than competitive engines in its class.
The robust 90-amp alternator with AMP+® electronic control provides abundant charging power for today’s electronics-heavy boats, automatically adjusting output to meet electrical demands and delivering 60 amps of reliable charging power. The classic Aquamarine Silver finish provides excellent corrosion resistance while maintaining Honda’s distinctive marine aesthetic.
Standard features include power trim and tilt, NMEA 2000® certification for seamless electronics integration without expensive gateway interfaces, built-in speedometer pickup, freshwater flush port, and Honda’s comprehensive corrosion protection system featuring multiple anodes and specialized marine coatings designed to withstand the harsh saltwater environment.
Perfect for single-engine offshore fishing boats, high-performance center consoles, and demanding commercial applications requiring extended shaft length, the Honda BF225DUDA combines raw V6 power with precision electronic control, delivering the reliability and performance that serious boaters demand when venturing into challenging waters where dependability and advanced technology are essential.
