2018 Evinrude E-TEC 30 HP E30GTEL Outboard Motor

The 2018 Evinrude E30GTEL keeps trim and tilt manual on this 30 HP engine while still offering an electric starter with a rope-pull backup, on the longer 20-inch shaft, at 165.35 pounds dry. Where this build lands in the range Keeping the trim lever manual while fitting an electric starter puts the weight between the fully manual builds and the power-trim version at this same shaft length, a middle ground some buyers specifically look for. Bore and stroke are 76 by 64 millimeters for 577 cc, with 2.15:1 gearing and an RPM band running 5,500 to 6,000 at full throttle. Setting trim by hand Because trim is manual, plan to set running angle before leaving the dock rather than adjusting mid-run from a switch. Fuel runs 87-octane unleaded gas, and the engine is lubricated on Evinrude/Johnson XD-100 oil, with 15 of the alternator's 56 amps net dedicated, plus a saltwater rating that holds up on coastal trips as well as inland lakes. Condition This E30GTEL is new, occupying a middle spot in this lineup between the lightest rope-start builds and the heaviest power-trim one, and it is water cooled throughout. Is trim power-adjusted? No, it's set manually. Does it start electrically? Yes, with a rope-pull backup option. What's the dry weight? 165.35 pounds.
