Honda BF50D4XRTA Outboard - 25" Shaft | Remote Control | Electric Start | Power Tilt | Silver

Overview

The BF50D4XRTA is built for boats that require extra shaft length while still wanting the full convenience package of Honda’s mid-range lineup. With a 25" shaft, this model is designed for taller transoms and applications where standard long-shaft engines may struggle to keep the prop properly submerged.

This configuration includes remote control steering, electric start, and power tilt, making it a natural fit for console-rigged boats. From the helm, operation feels smooth and controlled, whether you’re easing into a dock or cruising across open water. Power tilt allows quick trim adjustments for shallow areas, trailering, and dialing in ride attitude under changing loads.

At 50 HP, this engine provides confident acceleration and strong load-carrying ability without the bulk of larger high-horsepower platforms. Honda’s four-stroke design keeps noise and vibration in check, resulting in a refined on-water experience that’s comfortable for long runs.
