The Honda BF250DUCDA represents Honda’s most specialized twin-engine solution, engineered for the most demanding deep-hull offshore applications where ultimate control and balanced thrust are essential. This sophisticated 250-horsepower outboard features Honda’s revolutionary iST® (Intelligent Shift and Throttle) drive-by-wire system paired with counter-rotation propeller design and an ultra-long 30″ shaft, delivering unparalleled control and perfectly balanced thrust for premium twin-engine installations on the deepest hulls. The advanced electronic control system supports up to four engines and two control stations, providing effortless throttle synchronization, enhanced docking precision, and user-programmable system defaults through an intuitive interface.
Powered by Honda’s proven 3.6-liter 60° V6 engine with SOHC configuration and exclusive VTEC® technology, this outboard delivers smooth, responsive power delivery across the entire operating range while optimizing fuel efficiency. The BLAST™ system enhances acceleration by aggressively advancing the ignition curve during throttle advancement, providing dramatically improved holeshot performance to get your vessel on plane faster. The counter-rotation configuration eliminates torque steer and provides perfectly balanced thrust when paired with a standard rotation engine, resulting in superior straight-line tracking and enhanced maneuverability even in challenging offshore conditions.
The ultra-long 30″ shaft design accommodates the deepest hull applications, including large offshore sportfishing boats, commercial vessels, and specialized deep-V hull designs where standard shaft lengths cannot provide adequate propeller submersion. This extended shaft length ensures optimal water flow to the propeller and maintains peak performance characteristics even with heavily loaded vessels or in rough sea conditions, while the counter-rotation design provides balanced thrust distribution across the transom.
The robust 90-amp alternator with 60-amp charging capacity and AMP+® technology automatically adjusts engine speed to maintain optimal charging under high electrical loads, ensuring reliable power for sophisticated electronics packages, hydraulic systems, and luxury amenities common on large offshore vessels. Advanced PGM-FI fuel injection delivers precise fuel metering for reliable starts, instant throttle response, and optimized fuel consumption.
The iST® technology seamlessly integrates with third-party joystick systems like the Dometic Optimus 360, enabling precision boat positioning and automated docking sequences that make handling large, deep-hulled vessels effortless. Security features include a key fob immobilizer and push-button starting, while electronics redundancy ensures reliable operation in the most demanding offshore conditions. NMEA 2000® certification allows direct integration with marine electronics without expensive gateway devices.
Finished in elegant Aquamarine Silver with Honda’s comprehensive corrosion protection system, the Honda BF250DUCDA delivers the perfect combination of power, precision control, twin-engine compatibility, and ultra-deep shaft capability for professional and recreational boaters operating the most specialized offshore vessels who demand uncompromising performance and reliability.
