The Honda BFP15D3XRT outboard motor represents Honda’s premier portable power solution, featuring Power Thrust design with remote steering control for console boats and larger vessels. This 4-stroke, 2-cylinder engine delivers 60% more thrust in reverse and 15% more thrust in forward compared to standard models, thanks to its specialized gearcase and larger propeller design. Built with Honda’s proven automotive engineering roots, this outboard is purpose-built to withstand demanding marine conditions while providing exceptional fuel efficiency and reliability.
The Power Thrust gearcase features a larger 10″ x 7⅝” four-blade aluminum propeller that dramatically improves maneuverability and backing power, making it ideal for larger boats, pontoons, and challenging docking situations. The mechanical remote steering system is compatible with most repower applications, providing precise boat control from the helm position. With its 25-inch extra-long shaft length, the BFP15D3XRT perfectly accommodates deeper transoms and provides optimal propeller positioning for enhanced performance across various hull configurations.
Electric start capability backed by Honda’s robust 12-amp charging system ensures reliable ignition and maintains battery power throughout extended boating sessions. The power trim and tilt system allows precise engine positioning for optimal performance and convenient shallow water navigation. Remote throttle and shift controls provide smooth, responsive operation from the helm, while the power tilt feature offers easy out-of-water positioning for storage and transport.
Honda’s exclusive 3-stage carburetion system delivers smoother operation and improved fuel efficiency compared to conventional two-circuit designs. The large 350cc displacement coupled with long-stroke engineering provides optimal torque throughout the RPM range, while Honda’s pendulum mount system absorbs vibration for remarkably smooth operation. Advanced performance features include reverse exhaust relief for maximum backing thrust, auto start enrichment for effortless cold-weather starts, and comprehensive engine alert systems that monitor critical parameters.
Built with Honda’s patented corrosion protection system featuring double-sealed multi-layered paint, sacrificial anodes, and marine-grade stainless steel components, the BFP15D3XRT withstands harsh saltwater environments. The efficient 2.08:1 gear ratio optimizes power delivery, while shallow water drive capability provides confident operation in challenging waters.
Whether powering center console fishing boats, aluminum fishing vessels, or commercial craft requiring superior thrust and deep-water capability with helm control, the Honda BFP15D3XRT delivers the perfect combination of Power Thrust performance, remote steering convenience, extended shaft reach, and legendary Honda reliability for the most demanding marine applications.
