Honda BFP60 POWER THRUST (60HP)

INTRODUCING THE BFP60 POWER THRUST (60HP)

POWER THRUST

The Power Thrust gear case is a beast, and its larger diameter propeller results in greater thrust, which is particularly useful in commercial/big boat applications.

This bad boy is available in remote control configuration, meaning you can spend more time at the front of your boat checking out the scenery.

A multi-pole AC generator (ACG) also provides an impressive 22amp of battery charging capacity – that’s ample power for onboard marine electronics, livebait tanks and any other equipment you might take out onto the water with you.

ECOMO

Along with Honda’s Programmed Fuel Injection, the BFP60 incorporates Lean Burn Control technology, which adjusts the air/fuel mix according to speed and load to maximise efficiency.This allows combustion to operate on a leaner air/fuel ratio than stoichiometric air/fuel.

An O2 sensor, together with the ECM, precisely controls the air/fuel mixture for the best fuel economy at cruise setting. The mode in which lean burn control is used during cruising to achieve higher fuel economy is referred to as ECOmo (Economy Controlled Motor).

All this means that the BFP60 runs more efficiently, making it lighter on your wallet and easier on the environment.

CORROSION PROTECTION SYSTEM

A patented ‘double sealed’ multi-layered paint process will help keep your BFP60 from succumbing to the elements.

Sacrificial anodes and stainless steel technology, along with waterproof connectors, all enhance corrosion protection.

Not only this, but the BFP60’s elegant lightweight design is perfect for aluminum boats and inflatables. There’s much more than just classy cosmetic appearance behind Honda’s attention-grabbing aquamarine silver finish!

NMEA2000 COMPATIBLE

The BFP60 can communicate with onboard electronics to deliver a wide-range of information to head-unit displays.

When networked with a NMEA2000 capable marine electronics unit, engine data such as speed, revs, temperature, fuel usage and other data can be displayed on the unit’s screen.

Add to this Honda’s Programmed Electronic Fuel Injection to deliver the precise amount of fuel/air to each cylinder, and the result is an easy start every time.

BLAST

A quick movement of the throttle control activates the BLAST™ system, advancing the ignition curve aggressively. ‘Hole shot’ is vastly improved as more horsepower gets the hull up on plane quicker.

PROGRAMMED ELECTRONIC FUEL INJECTION

Delivers the precise amount of fuel/air to each cylinder. The result is easy starts and instant throttle response with superior fuel efficiency.

HIGH PERFORMANCE GEARCASE

Designed to get you going faster,this all new gearcase reduces drag, reduces hull porpoising and minimises spray, thus increasing acceleration and top speed.

TROLLING CONTROL SWITCH

The tiller handle also comes standard with a trolling control switch, which allows the operator to make fine speed adjustments (per 50rpm between 750rpm and 1000rpm) with a single switch operation.

ENGINE ALERT SYSTEM

Uses visual, audio and rpm reduction circuits to alert the operator of overheating, low oil PSI and over-revving, preventing engine damage.

MIKUNI INTAKE SYSTEM

Honda’s BF60 engine features the lightweight Mikuni long tube intake track system, which helps build low-end torque.
