Description
The Honda BFP8DK3XHS is an 8hp Power Thrust four-stroke outboard with tiller steering, electric start with a manual backup, and a 25" extra long shaft, weighing 117 lbs. Built for heavier boats like sailboats, pontoons and workboats, and a great choice as a kicker. As an authorized Honda dealer, Boat Specialists sells it new with the full Honda 5-year factory warranty.
Honda's 8hp and 9.9hp portables are light, quiet and fuel efficient, with a strong charging system, easy starting and Shallow Water Drive. They pack Honda's reliability into a motor that's easy to carry and run. Power Thrust models add a high-thrust gearcase and propeller for about 60 percent more thrust in reverse and 15 percent more forward, for heavier boats and easier docking.
