Description
Support Honda BF250DUCRA in a port-side twin-engine installation when a 30-inch U-long shaft and mechanical counter-rotation are required. 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 BF250DUCRA is a mechanical-control 4-stroke outboard with Programmed Fuel Injection, electric starting, remote mechanical controls, and Power Trim & Tilt. The configuration is listed for dual-engine offshore cruisers using traditional rigging.
At 622 lbs dry, the engine must be included in the complete twin-engine load, along with batteries, fuel, rigging, passengers, and onboard equipment. Its 30-inch U-long shaft addresses extended transom requirements, while the 5,300–6,300 RPM full-throttle range provides a reference for propeller setup. The 90-amp alternator supplies 60 charging amps for supported marine electronics. The listed oil capacity is 7.8 L with filter, with gearcase and counter-rotation service governed by the Honda manual.
