Description

Used 2005 Honda 20HP Four Stroke Outboard Motor – 312 Hours | 20″ Long Shaft | Tiller | Freshly Serviced

Looking for a reliable, economical, and freshly serviced Honda outboard motor for your boat? This 2005 Honda 20HP Four Stroke Long Shaft Outboard Motor offers dependable Honda performance, excellent fuel economy, and a practical tiller-steer configuration for fishing and recreational boating.

With 312 operating hours, this Honda 20HP was previously used as a kicker/auxiliary motor on freshwater lakes, meaning it was used in a supporting role rather than as the primary propulsion engine. The motor has been exceptionally well cared for and has recently undergone a comprehensive service using genuine Honda OEM parts.

The recent service includes a new water pump, new engine oil and filter, new gear oil, and professional carburettor cleaning. A new 4-blade propeller has also been fitted to provide strong low-speed thrust and controlled handling.

The engine features a 20-inch long shaft, tiller-handle steering, manual pull start, and a built-in battery charging circuit, making it a versatile choice for compatible fishing boats, aluminium boats, dinghies, tenders, inflatables, and other small recreational vessels.

Why This Honda 20HP Is a Great Choice

312 Operating Hours

This Honda 20HP has 312 recorded operating hours. The engine’s hours provide buyers with useful information about its usage history and allow for a more transparent assessment of a used outboard.

Previously Used as a Kicker Motor

One of the key advantages of this engine is its previous application. It was used as a kicker/auxiliary motor on freshwater lakes.

As an auxiliary engine, it was used to provide additional or backup propulsion rather than serving as the boat’s primary motor.

Freshwater Use

The engine was previously used on freshwater lakes. Freshwater operation can be an attractive feature for buyers concerned about marine corrosion, although normal inspection and ongoing maintenance are still recommended.

Freshly Serviced

The motor has recently undergone a comprehensive service using genuine Honda OEM parts, helping ensure the engine is properly prepared for continued use.

Recent work includes:

  • New water pump
  • New engine oil
  • New oil filter
  • New gear oil
  • Professionally cleaned carburettor

This recent maintenance gives buyers greater confidence when purchasing a used outboard.

New 4-Blade Propeller

A new 4-blade propeller has been fitted to the engine.

A four-blade propeller can provide useful low-speed thrust, grip, and handling characteristics, making it particularly practical for applications where controlled low-speed operation is important.

Built-In Battery Charging Circuit

The integrated battery charging circuit allows the engine to help maintain the boat’s battery while operating, which can be useful for boaters running onboard electrical equipment and electronics.

Tiller Handle Steering

The tiller-handle configuration provides direct steering and throttle control from the engine, making this setup particularly convenient for smaller boats, tenders, dinghies, and fishing vessels.

Recent Service & Maintenance

The recent maintenance work is one of the major advantages of this Honda 20HP.

Suitable Applications

This Honda 20HP Four Stroke can be suitable for compatible:

  • Fishing boats
  • Aluminium boats
  • Dinghies
  • Tenders
  • Inflatable boats
  • Small recreational boats
  • Utility boats
  • Boats requiring a reliable auxiliary/kicker motor
  • Other vessels designed for a 20HP, 20-inch long-shaft outboard

Ideal as a Kicker or Auxiliary Motor

Given its previous use, this engine could be particularly attractive to boat owners looking for a 20HP auxiliary or kicker outboard.

It can provide additional propulsion capability while keeping the boat’s primary engine separate from low-speed manoeuvring or auxiliary duties.
