Honda Marine- Booth #1342
Honda Marine, an American Honda Motor Co., Inc. division, markets a complete range of outboard marine engines. Its comprehensive product line is powered exclusively by four-stroke engines. Honda pioneered four-stroke engine technology and has been designing and building four-stroke outboard engines for over 50 years, setting the benchmark for fuel efficiency, quiet operation, and low emissions. With 2.3 to 350 horsepower models, the Honda Marine full line of current production models meets the rigorous CARB standards.
It’s a landmark achievement because, while Honda has engineered and built high-performance racing engines for decades, the BF350 is the first commercially available Honda V8 engine, whether on land or water. The Honda BF350 offers extraordinary power and enhanced performance for exceptional boating experiences. It also delivers impressive fuel economy, outstanding and quiet performance, and features and functions found only on Honda outboards. The Honda BF350 does it all in a sleek, striking new design that’s as practical and functional as elegant and eye-catching.
