The Best Things Come in Small Packages.<\/b>\u00a0<\/p>\n

That\u2019s especially true with the Honda BF2.3, one of the world\u2019s lightest four-stroke outboards. The BF2.3 is so light, it rivals many electric motors, without the battery. But just because it\u2019s lightweight (29.5 lbs.) doesn\u2019t mean it cuts back on power. The BF2.3 features 15% more power over its predecessor. It also provides excellent maneuverability in tight areas. With full 360\u00b0 steering and pivoting tiller handle, you get full thrust in any direction and enjoy quick, easy maneuvering. Plus the 12% larger internal gas tank provides for about one hour of operation at wide open throttle. It\u2019s technologically advanced design gives you power and performance \u2013 without sacrificing portability.<\/p>\n

TOP FEATURES<\/b><\/p>\n

Reliable, Efficient 4-Stroke Design<\/b>
World-renowned Honda quality combines proven reliability and superior fuel efficiency, with no oil mixing.<\/p>\n

More Power Without Sacrificing Portability<\/b>
With 15% more horsepower over its predecessor, this ultra lightweight powerhouse produces surprising speed and maneuverability.<\/p>\n

Lightweight And Compact<\/b>
The BF2.3 is incredibly light and easy to transport. Weighing less than 30 pounds, it\u2019s the ideal engine for dinghies, car-toppers, and other types of small boats.<\/p>\n

Centrifugal Clutch For Better Performance<\/b>
The centrifugal clutch maintains a smooth idle and, when advanced, automatically engages the prop above idle speed. It\u2019s like having a neutral position.<\/p>\n

Convenient Fold-Down Tiller<\/b>
The BF2.3 tiller folds up or down for easy stowing.<\/p>\n

4-Front Corrosion Protection System Fights The Elements<\/b>
A patented, \u201cDouble-Sealed\u201d multi-layered paint process, sacrificial anodes, stainless steel technology, and waterproof connectors enhance corrosion protection.<\/p>\n
