The Tohatsu BFT250 stands as the flagship of Tohatsu’s premium large displacement V6 outboard series, delivering commanding 250 horsepower performance through the most advanced marine propulsion technologies available today. This sophisticated 6-cylinder, 4-stroke motor represents the pinnacle of outboard engineering, combining proven large displacement power with exclusive Drive By Wire technology to create an outboard that sets new standards for precision control, performance, and efficiency in the ultra-premium marine propulsion category.

At the core of the BFT250’s exceptional performance lies Tohatsu’s advanced large displacement V6 engine featuring 218.6 cubic inches of displacement with a precision-engineered 3.50 x 3.78 inch bore and stroke configuration. The engine utilizes a sophisticated 24-valve Single Overhead Cam (SOHC) design that maximizes power density while maintaining the narrow V6 profile that delivers superior performance, exceptional durability, and outstanding fuel economy across its 5,300-6,300 RPM operating range.

The BFT250’s exclusive Drive By Wire system represents a revolutionary advancement in outboard control technology. As an electronic throttle and shift system, Drive By Wire provides completely resistance-free and precise shifting and acceleration control that’s unmatched in the marine industry. This cutting-edge technology, available only on the BFT250, delivers instantaneous response to operator inputs while eliminating the mechanical friction and lag associated with traditional cable-operated systems.

The BFT250 incorporates Tohatsu’s advanced Variable Valve Timing & Lift Electronic Control system, providing power exactly where and when you need it most. This sophisticated technology creates a broader, flatter torque curve with smooth power delivery throughout the engine’s entire operating range, resulting in an exceptional combination of massive low-end torque, impressive top-end performance, and remarkable fuel efficiency that achieves up to 30% less fuel consumption than competitive engines.

Featuring Tohatsu’s innovative Fuel-Efficient Cruise System, the BFT250 optimizes fuel economy at cruising speeds by enabling combustion at the ideal air-fuel mixture. The Maximum Acceleration System enhances acceleration and performance at low speeds, ensuring the engine provides both efficient long-distance cruising capability and explosive hole shot performance when maximum acceleration is demanded.

The BFT250 integrates TOCS (Tohatsu Onboard Communication System), offering seamless communication between standard onboard electronic devices and the outboard through simple plug-and-play connections. This advanced system provides comprehensive engine monitoring and diagnostic capabilities while enabling full integration with sophisticated marine electronics for complete performance management and real-time engine data analysis.

With its innovated exterior design, the BFT250 incorporates significant improvements in corrosion resistance and water intrusion protection, making it the ultimate choice for both saltwater and freshwater applications. These enhanced durability features ensure long-term reliability even under the most demanding marine conditions, while the sleek, modern profile complements the most sophisticated boat designs.

The engine’s robust electrical system delivers an impressive 90-amp alternator with 60 charging amps (12V, 720W, 60A output), providing more than adequate power for all onboard electrical systems. This substantial charging capability easily supports multiple fish finders, navigation equipment, lighting systems, communication devices, and other essential electronics without concern for battery depletion during extended offshore operations.

Available in both standard rotation and counter-rotation configurations, the BFT250 offers exceptional versatility for twin-engine installations and specialized high-performance applications. With transom height options of 20-inch and 25-inch, the engine accommodates premium boat configurations and mounting requirements. The precisely calibrated 2.00:1 gear ratio optimizes both massive low-end torque delivery and exceptional high-speed performance, while compatibility with propellers ranging from 15 to 27 inches allows for exact performance tuning based on your specific vessel and operational demands.

At 619 pounds, the BFT250 provides an outstanding power-to-weight ratio while maintaining the structural integrity essential for reliable operation under the most demanding conditions. The engine’s advanced design embodies Tohatsu’s Simpliq™ Technology philosophy, ensuring that the most sophisticated engineering innovations translate into intuitive operation and dependable performance that professionals can trust.

The BFT250 delivers broader torque characteristics and smoother power delivery throughout its operating range than any competitive engine, making it the ideal choice for high-performance center consoles, offshore fishing vessels, luxury yachts, and commercial applications where maximum power and precision control are essential. Whether you’re running to distant fishing grounds, entertaining clients, or operating in demanding commercial environments, this motor provides the ultimate combination of power, efficiency, and control.

The exclusive Drive By Wire system ensures the most precise throttle and shift control available, while the engine’s advanced electronic management systems guarantee optimal performance across all operating conditions. The sophisticated fuel injection system automatically compensates for varying loads, environmental conditions, and operational requirements to maintain peak efficiency and performance.

Backed by Tohatsu’s industry-leading 5-year limited warranty and supported by Northeast Marine’s comprehensive service network, the BFT250 represents the ultimate expression of outboard technology and performance. This motor demonstrates that innovation and reliability can coexist at the highest levels, establishing new benchmarks for what’s achievable in premium marine propulsion while maintaining the legendary durability that has made Tohatsu the choice of the world’s most discerning boaters and marine professionals.
