Honda BF25D3SHG Outboard - 15" Shaft | Electric Start | Tiller | Silver

Overview

The Honda BF25D3SHG is a classic mid-range outboard that brings 25 HP of smooth, reliable performance to boats equipped with a short-shaft transom. Its compact 15" shaft makes it well suited for smaller fishing boats, jon boats, and similar craft where shallow draft and direct control are priorities.

Powered by a 3-cylinder, 3-to-3 induction four-stroke engine, this model delivers responsive acceleration, smooth throttle response, and the quiet, refined operation Honda is known for—so you spend more time on the water and less time thinking about the motor. Electric start makes every departure effortless, and tiller steering gives you hands-on control at the transom. :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}
