Honda BF5 5hp standard shaft outboard engine and tank
Having just sold my Cape Cutter 19 to an Australian buyer I’m left with the Honda BF5 5hp standard shaft outboard that I used on it. It’s too big for my replacement boat which came with a suitable engine anyway. I bought the Honda new in May from Viking Marine, Goole, and since then it’s only use (fresh water) has been to manoeuvre the boat on and off the jetties and moorings on Kielder Water reservoir. In I sailed only four times due to bad weather and other commitments. As a result the engine hours are minimal. I couldn’t begin to estimate what they are but the engine had only just started sipping from its second 12 litre tank of fuel at the start of and most of the first tank went into the lawnmower after the end of the season. The engine is in virtually new condition. it’s never been run above half throttle and comes with original documents/manual/receipt for £ and tool kit. The prop is unmarked, as in the type of boat it was used in it was in no danger of ever touching the ground being protected by the rudder and skeg. Naturally it comes with its fueal tank and line and If I get the asking price, or very close to it, I’ll include a top quality stainless steel outboard lock by OML Ltd fitted with IFAM lock, with it.
