Boaters who want to explore the shallows now have three new engine choices from which to choose with the launch of the jet-driven Honda 40 Jet, 65 Jet and 105 Jet Honda Marine outboard motors. The new lineup of jet-propelled marine motors pairs renowned Honda powerheads with jet drives designed to provide an exceptional boating experience in ultra-shallow waters. All three new models offer the same dependable, quiet and fuel efficient operation as the Honda BF Series of propeller-driven models, with the super maneuverability and added benefits of a jet-propulsion system.
“The launch of the new Honda 40 Jet, 65 Jet and 105 Jet will power boaters to shallows where prop engines can’t go,” said Will Walton, Assistant Vice President, Honda Marine. “These engines mark Honda’s entry into a new segment of the market. The combination of powerful jet pump technology with Honda’s legendary marine powerheads gives our customers a wider choice of Honda marine outboard motors to meet all their boating needs.”
Honda Marine outboard jet models have no gearcase or propeller extending below the hull. The low-profile foot design allows a boater to maneuver in minimal depths without the fear of getting a propeller caught or damaged on rocky, rough bottoms, shallows, underwater obstacles or other low-water conditions that would challenge a prop-driven outboard. Jet-propelled motors are well suited for recreational and commercial boaters. Anglers who want to fish the shallows and edges; recreational boaters who want to explore streams, islands and riverbanks; and crabbers and shell fishermen who work in marshes and small creeks with fluctuating tides all appreciate the attributes of jet-propelled outboard motors.
All three new Honda Marine models, the 40 Jet, 65 Jet and 105 Jet, are designed for dependability, fuel efficiency and easy operation. These jet-driven motors incorporate many of the exclusive and performance-enhancing features found on the full line of Honda BF outboards. In addition, all of the Honda jet models include overhead camshaft design; electric starting; Multi-Port Programmed Fuel Injection for quick starts; water cooled systems; and a Freshwater Flush Port. The jet models are covered by the best-in-class Honda True 5 year non-declining warranty for both powerheads and jet pumps. The transferrable warranty is the same on the last day as the first.
