Position Honda BF250DK1LRA on a high-performance bay boat, bass boat, or aluminum sport hull when 250 HP and mechanical remote controls are preferred with a 20-inch shaft. Its 3.6-liter V6 engine uses a 60-degree layout, 24 valves, SOHC operation, and VTEC technology, producing 250 HP at 5,800 RPM. Honda BF250DK1LRA is a Signature Silver 4-stroke outboard with Programmed Fuel Injection, electric starting, remote mechanical control, and Power Trim & Tilt. The long shaft suits compatible standard transoms.

At 600 lbs dry, this engine should be included in transom, trailer, repower, and total boat-balance calculations. Its 5,300–6,300 RPM full-throttle range helps guide propeller setup, while the 2.00:1 gear ratio supports forward, neutral, and reverse operation. A 90-amp alternator provides 60 charging amps for supported navigation equipment, pumps, lighting, batteries, and accessories. The listed oil capacity is 7.8 L with filter, while gearcase service should follow the applicable Honda manual.
