Tohatsu 200HP BFT200DLRA Outboard Motor

This listing is a used example of the BFT200DLRA, Tohatsu's 200 hp remote-steer four-stroke, originally rated at 584 lbs with a 20-inch shaft and electric start. Buying used at this size means budgeting time to check service history and wear, not just reading the spec sheet. What to check on a used big-block outboard Ask the seller about hours run and whether lower-unit oil and the water pump impeller have stayed on schedule; six cylinders of outboard put real strain on the gearcase and cooling system if maintenance has lapsed. Also confirm your own boat's steering cables and control head actually match this motor's remote mechanical hardware before you buy. Specifications The six-cylinder engine displaces 3471cc under electronic fuel injection, with the top of its rev range near 6,000 rpm and the bottom near 5,000. A 20-inch shaft is what this unit was built with, sized for a standard offshore transom. Q: Does it still carry a warranty since it's used? Confirm current warranty status with us; coverage on a used unit depends on its history. Q: What boats is a 20-inch shaft right for? Standard-height transoms on larger center consoles and offshore boats built around this horsepower class. Before it ships, it's worth having compression and lower-unit seals checked on any used six-cylinder outboard, since those two items are the costliest to find trouble with after delivery rather than before.
