Honda Marine Outboard | 15HP | Short Shaft | Tiller | Electric Start

With a compact size just slightly larger than the BF9.9–but with more power–the Honda Marine Outboard 15HP Motor is perfect for aluminium fishing boats, inflatables, sailboats or as a kicker for a larger fishing boat. It has one of the largest displacements in its class, giving you big performance, and the added reliability of 4-Front Corrosion Protection and Engine Alert System.

If you’ve got an inflatable boat, a RIB or a tender, these engines are not only easy to transport, they’re easy to operate too.

Both engines (BF15 & BF20) have an automatic decompression system for easy starting. This makes the engine much easier to turn over for that initial pull if you have a manual recoil-type, and it’s less of a drain on your battery if you have the electric start.

In forward motion (A) the propeller will drive normally through water, but in reverse it's a different story – unless you have a Honda. On other outboards, the propeller will turn in exhaust bubbles and wont ‘hook up’ with the water. Our unique reverse exhaust relief system directs the exhaust bubbles away from the propeller (B), so that it can 'grip' the water – instead of air. The result is instant reverse response with much finer control.

The Honda Marine Outboard 15HP light engine is easy to tilt up in five stages. Both the manual (A) and power versions (B) will lift up or down, enabling you to trim the boat to give you maximum performance and fuel efficiency. It also stops you from damaging the propeller blades when you find yourself near rocks or the water’s edge. 

They’re so quiet you can raise the power, without having to raise your voice.

Whether it’s for commercial or leisure use, when the 4-stroke spins into life you’ll notice how quiet it is as you roll on the power. And with the exclusive Honda rubber mount device that soaks up the vibrations, it feels smooth too. These high-output outboards will push you and your passengers nicely through the water when you're out for a day’s work, or cruising and fishing.

You’ll be glad to know these light 4-stroke 350cc engines are easy to start, that's because they have a decompression system and a Programmed ignition (PGM IG). This ignition system accurately delivers the right amount of fuel/air mixture to the twin cylinders, so when you fire up these Hondas – even from cold – they're ready for fun, right from the word go.

The finish is stunning in Honda aqua marine silver. And with a folding handle on the exact point of balance, even carrying it around the outboard looks fantastic.
