*The estimated top speeds provided for each Honda portable engine are based on tests conducted with the smallest compatible air-deck hull under standard conditions, carrying a single person. Actual speeds may vary depending on factors such as boat size and type, load, water conditions, and engine maintenance. These estimates should serve as a general guide to expected performance rather than exact figures.
