    Need prop advice

    Good afternoon everyone. I have a 2005 Robalo with a Honda bf225 outboard. I am currently running a 3x15 5/8 x 11 prop. It will come out of the hole pretty decent til it hits 4000 rpm and then struggles to get to 4400-4500 where the vtec kicks in and then it goes great. I have tried several...

    Boat Listing issue

    Have a Robalo R225 boat with a Honda 225 outboard. The issue I am having is that when I run on plain I have to use full trim to keep it from listing to the port side. Not just a little bit but a lot of lean to the port. At full trim, it still wants to lean to the port to the point that if...

    Looking for Tech

    I have a 2005 Honda 225 and need a tech to go thru it for me. I am looking for a great tech in the Northern Utah area that can work on Hondas and knows their stuff! Past experiences with a local dealer has not been good. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    2005 225 not reaching full rpm

    Honda 225 Power Curve question

    Curious if the power curve on my 2005 225 can be adjusted. Instead of kicking in around 4300-4500 rpm can it be made to kick in around 3800-4000 rpm? I have changed props several times and I currently have a 15 5/8 x 11 which does well til it hits about 4000 rpm then takes a few more seconds...

    2005 Honda 226 Buzzer

    As you know from a previous post I have had issues with motor cutting out when I got to about 3500 rpm on start up out of the hole. It was suggested to change all the filters which I did but did not fix the issue. I started at the bulb and replaced it then the low side fuel pump, then the high...

    Good afternoon everyone. Just purchased a Robal walk around with a 2005 Bf225 outboard. Changed the high and low side filters. Drained the VST. When I throttle up, the boat will start to plane and them it acts like it is starved for fuel and sputters and loses RPM so I throttle back for a...
