Hidea 20 hp outboard motor
The perfect balance between modern technology, high power, and a fair price.
The Hidea HDBF20 and HDF20 are advanced 20 hp 4-stroke outboard motors designed for the demanding water sports enthusiast. Whether you have a fishing boat, an inflatable boat, or a console boat, this motor offers the reliability and comfort of full remote control. With the 'FEL' version (Long shaft, Electric start, Remote control), you choose maximum ease of use.
Key advantages of the HDBF20
- Electric Start & Remote Control: Forget manual pull-starting. With the electric start and included remote control box, you can operate the motor comfortably from your steering console.
-
Quiet and Low-Vibration: The modern 2-cylinder construction ensures smooth operation, allowing you to optimally enjoy your surroundings without disturbing engine noise.
-
Built for Durability: Equipped with a high-quality cooling system and stainless steel parts. The Hidea F20 outboard motor is optimally protected against the elements, whether you are sailing on fresh or salt water.
-
Additional Technical Features & Benefits
Performance and Operation:
-
Advanced cross-flow induction: Ensures very smooth operation and a stable idle speed.
-
Tuned intake system: Specially designed for quick and powerful acceleration ('crisp takeoffs').
-
Digital CD ignition: Provides faster throttle response, easier starting, and extremely stable trolling (slow sailing), which is ideal for anglers.
-
Shallow water drive: The motor is equipped with a special setting for sailing in shallow water, so you can approach the coast safely.
-
Adjustable steering friction: Allows you to adjust the steering stiffness to your liking, which reduces fatigue during long trips.
Durability and Reliability:
-
Stainless steel water pump housing: The liner of the water pump housing is made of high-grade stainless steel for an extremely long lifespan, even under harsh conditions.
-
Thermostatically controlled cooling system: This system keeps the engine at a constant, optimal temperature, regardless of water temperature.
-
Zinc coating on internal water channels: The internal cooling channels are provided with an extra zinc layer for superior protection against internal corrosion.
-
High-grade marine aluminum alloy: The entire motor is manufactured from a special alloy that offers the ultimate protection against salt water and corrosion.
-
Large oil reservoir: A larger motor oil capacity guarantees optimal lubrication of all moving parts.
Ease of Use:
-
Through-the-prop exhaust: For a significantly quieter sailing experience, the exhaust is discharged directly into the water through the propeller hub.
-
Built-in hour meter: (If applicable to this specific model) Makes tracking maintenance intervals much easier.
-
Large alternator and rectifier: Ensures superior battery charging capacity, so onboard electronics are always powered.
