The Honda BF250 outboard motor stands as the benchmark for high-performance marine propulsion, delivering best-in-class 250-horsepower output through Honda’s award-winning V6 engine technology. Winner of the prestigious 2011 IBEX Innovation Award, this sophisticated powerplant features Honda’s proven 3,583cc displacement with precision-engineered 89 x 96mm bore and stroke specifications, producing peak power of 250 horsepower at 5,800 RPM across its comprehensive 5,300-6,300 RPM operating range.
The BF250 represents a breakthrough in marine engine design with industry-first dual intake circuits that optimize airflow for maximum performance and efficiency. Built upon Honda’s revolutionary narrow 60-degree V6 architecture, this compact yet powerful engine incorporates advanced automotive technologies developed through decades of racing and roadway testing, delivering awesome V6 power with unmatched reliability.
Featuring Honda’s exclusive VTEC® (Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control) technology, the BF250 delivers explosive mid-range torque through a broader, flatter torque curve and seamless power delivery throughout the engine’s operating range. Combined with Honda’s innovative BLAST™ (Boosted Low Speed Torque) technology for dramatically improved hole shots and sophisticated Lean Burn Control for exceptional fuel economy, this motor provides the ultimate balance of performance and efficiency.
The advanced AMP+® (Automatic Idle Speed Control) system automatically increases engine speed when electrical loads demand additional amperage, producing an extra 9 amps to prevent battery drain during electronics-intensive operations. The automotive-style 90-amp alternator with 60 amps of charging capacity easily supports the most demanding marine electronics suites and accessories.
Honda’s sophisticated Multi-Port Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) system ensures precise fuel delivery under all conditions, while the innovative dual channel indirect-air-circuit induction system improves airflow and enhances performance. The streamlined aerodynamic design features a three-latch lock and seal system for easy maintenance access and superior weather protection.
Available with both traditional mechanical controls and Honda’s advanced iST® (Intelligent Shift and Throttle) drive-by-wire system, the BF250 offers maximum installation flexibility and operational precision. The iST® system provides superb control with seamless integration capabilities, including compatibility with third-party joystick systems for enhanced maneuverability and precision docking.
Engineered for durability in demanding marine environments, the BF250 incorporates Honda’s comprehensive Corrosion Protection system with four strategically placed anodes, multi-layer coatings, and advanced materials. Available in 20-inch, 25-inch, and 30-inch shaft configurations with standard power trim and tilt, including counter-rotation models, the BF250 adapts to diverse vessel requirements.
Whether powering offshore sportfishing boats, luxury cruisers, or commercial vessels, the Honda BF250 delivers award-winning performance that sets the standard for V6 marine propulsion excellence.
