2.3 HP Portable Outboard Motor
The best things come in small packages. And thatÂ’s especially true with Honda’s BF2.3, one of the worldÂ’s lightest four-stroke outboards. The BF2.3 is so light, it rivals many two-stroke 2 HP engines and electric motors, without the battery! But just because itÂ’s lightweight doesnÂ’t mean we cut back on the power. The BF2.3 features 15% more power over its predecessor. Plus we added a 12% larger internal gas tank, which provides for about one hour of operation at wide open throttle. ItÂ’s a technologically advanced design that gives you power and performance – without sacrificing portability.
