2025 Honda Marine BF2.3 L-Type

And that’s especially true with Honda’s BF2.3, one of the world’s lightest four-stroke outboards. The BF2.3 is so light, it rivals many two-stroke 2HP engines and electric motors, without the battery!

But just because it’s lightweight doesn’t mean we cut back on the power. The BF2.3 features 15% more power over its predecessor. Plus we added a 12% larger internal gas tank, which provides for about one hour of operation at wide open throttle. It’s a technologically advanced design that gives you power and performance – without sacrificing portability.

Features may include:

Lightweight and compact

The BF2.3 is incredibly light and easy to transport. Weighing less than 30 pounds, it's the ideal engine for dinghys, car-toppers and other types of small boats.

A front mounted carrying handle provides superior portability and ease of installation.

More power - without sacrificing portability

With 15% more horsepower over its predecessor, this ultra light weight powerhouse produces surprising speed and maneuverability.

The centrifugal clutch maintains a smooth idle and when advanced, automatically engages the prop above idle speed. It's like having a neutral position.

Precise Throttle Control

A twist grip throttle allows for precise throttle control. The throttle tensioner minimizes driver fatigue.

Provides excellent maneuverability in tight areas as well as full thrust in reverse (at 180°).

Easy Starting

The maintenance free transistor ignition offers high-energy output for quick and easy starts.

With 12% more capacity over its predecessor, the BF2.3 now runs up to 60 minutes at full throttle on a tank of fuel. The internal tank facilitates easy removal and portability as a single unit.
