I am sure the Honda outboards are great motors. I know their cars are awesome (on my 2nd Honda and LOVE it)

But "High Performance" is not what I think of when I see a Honda Outboard. They have an optional "Sabre" gearcase that looks ver similar to a Sportmaster. Very elongated and pointy (much more than the BRP and Yamaha case). The water intakes look to be in standard location though???


BF200-BF225 Lower Unit——Sabre™
The new Sabre™ hi-performance lower unit assembly is available for the Honda BF200/BF225 models. The Sabre gearcase
has been enhanced to allow for higher engine mounting heights resulting in improved overall performance. The Sabre features
a new integrated nose cone that is hydro-dynamically designed to maximize top-end speed, improve acceleration, and eliminate
blowout at speeds above 65 mph.To ensure proper cooling to the powerhead, new lower water inlets are incorporated into the
design. The Sabre gearcase is available through an exchange program.

Contact the Sabre gearcase administrator at
Custom Marine and Welding for ordering information.
