Honda BF 2.3

One of the world's lightest four-stroke outboards – at just 13.5 kg it rivals many two-stroke engines and electric motors. An updated carburetor delivers 15% more power than its predecessor without adding weight. The built-in 1.1-litre fuel tank provides close to one hour of operation at wide-open throttle, so the entire motor can be carried as a single unit. A centrifugal clutch keeps the idle smooth and automatically engages the propeller above idle speed – just like having a neutral gear. The 360° swivel steering offers excellent manoeuvrability and full thrust in reverse. Its fold-down tiller stores compactly, while dual lockable transom clamps provide secure mounting. The air-cooled block eliminates water-pump clogging concerns. A perfect companion for dinghies, kayaks and as an auxiliary motor.
