Tohatsu BFT150DXRA 150HP – 25″ Shaft Remote Mechanical

Tohatsu BFT150DXRA 150HP FourStroke (Silver)

The Tohatsu BFT150DXRA pairs a 2354cc inline 4-cylinder DOHC engine (Honda-powered) with a 25-inch extra-long shaft, weighing 485 lbs, built for high-transom offshore vessels. This unit gives a strong displacement-to-weight ratio for sustained deep-water transits, matched to offshore walkarounds and deep-V hulls needing aggressive low-end torque across the United States.

Peak output holds between 5000-6000 RPM, translating the 2.4L displacement into a smooth, high-torque curve. The 2.14:1 gear ratio translates power into hole-shot capability and steady hull planing. This engine reflects Japanese engineering standards for offshore saltwater use, with a corrosion-resistant silver finish and long-term vibration dampening.

Technical Specifications of Tohatsu BFT150DXRA

• The 2.4L 16-valve DOHC inline 4-cylinder powerhead provides strong displacement and torque performance for heavy offshore loads.
• Programmed Fuel Injection (PGM-FI) ensures reliable zero-choke starting and strong thermal efficiency.
• The 25-inch extra-long shaft ensures maximum propeller depth to prevent cavitation in rolling offshore conditions.
• A 51A alternator (30A charging) delivers power to high-draw navigation systems and safety electronics.
• NMEA 2000 certification allows digital integration for real-time data on modern displays.
• Remote mechanical controls offer a dependable, tactile connection between captain and propulsion unit.

High-Displacement DOHC Tech

The 2.4L big-block architecture maximizes low-end thrust, providing the vibration dampening and mechanical strength needed to push heavy fiberglass hulls through unpredictable coastal tidal flows, part of Mulmarine’s outboard motor technology lineup.

PGM-FI Induction Logic

PGM-FI monitors atmospheric variables for the right fuel induction ratio, guaranteeing instant starting and eliminating carburetor-related maintenance.

Extra-Long Shaft Reach

The 25-inch hydrodynamic shaft is built for extra-high offshore transoms, keeping propeller grip in deep swells for absolute boat control during complex harbor maneuvers.

Tohatsu 5-Year Warranty

Every Tohatsu BFT150 carries a 5-year limited warranty, with genuine parts and certified technicians through a nationwide dealer network.

High Transom Application

This 150HP unit suits high-transom offshore walkarounds and center consoles needing aggressive power, well matched for coastal tournament fishing.

Maintenance & Longevity

Maintaining clean oil in the 7.1-quart system with a Trochoid pump preserves the engine’s tight mechanical tolerances. Pro Tip from the Shop: periodically grease the steering tube and check the prop shaft seals for fishing line intrusion.
