Honda BF90D5JRTA Outboard Motor
20" Shaft | Remote Control | Electric Start | Power Tilt | 65 Jet HP | Silver
Overview
The BF90D5JRTA is a jet-drive outboard engineered for shallow-water environments where propeller-driven engines can’t operate safely. Based on Honda’s 90 HP platform, this jet configuration delivers 65 jet horsepower through a water jet pump instead of a propeller.
This model is ideal for rivers, shallow lakes, rocky channels, and debris-filled waterways. Remote steering, electric start, and power tilt allow easy operation from the helm, while the jet drive minimizes the risk of prop damage in shallow or obstacle-prone water.
Jet drives trade top-end speed for access and control. The BF90D5JRTA excels in conditions where water depth is limited and reliability matters more than outright speed.

FAQs
Q: Why does this engine produce less horsepower than a prop model?
A: Jet drives lose power through the pump system; this is normal for jet-drive outboards.
Q: How shallow can a jet drive operate?
A: Jet drives can run in much shallower water than prop-driven engines.
Q: Does this engine use a propeller?
A: No. This model uses a jet pump instead of a propeller.
Q: Is this engine good for open water?
A: It can be used, but jet drives are best suited for shallow or restricted waterways.
