I have a Honda 8 I am trying to find the exact year of. Can anyone help?

Model is either BF8D or BFP8D? What is the difference between the two?

Serial number on kicker is BAAJ1004727.

Thanks!

The BFP8D in the Model Number indicates it was equiped with a Power Thrust Prop.
Honda has had some different codes used over the years but I do believe the serial number on yours indicates a manufacture year of 2001. That would be a guess on my part without seeing the actual model style. A call to a Honda Outboard dealer might give you more acccurate info.

If the BFP8D happens to have the number "1" at or near the end that would verify the 2001 DOM.
