Position Honda BF250DK1XCDA on the port side of a twin-engine offshore boat when counter-rotation, iST digital control, and a 25-inch shaft are required. Its 3.6-liter V6 engine uses a 60-degree layout, 24 valves, and SOHC operation, producing 250 HP at 5,800 RPM. Honda BF250DK1XCDA is a VTEC 4-stroke outboard with Programmed Fuel Injection, electric starting, Intelligent Shift and Throttle, and Power Trim & Tilt. The listed configuration is intended for compatible twin digital systems.

The 613-lb dry weight should be included in combined engine, battery, fuel, rigging, passenger, and transom calculations. Its 25-inch X-long shaft suits compatible tall transoms, while the 5,300–6,300 RPM full-throttle range helps guide propeller selection. A 90-amp alternator provides 60 charging amps for supported offshore electronics and accessories. The listed oil capacity is 7.8 L with filter, while gearcase and iST maintenance should follow the correct Honda manual.
