Evinrude E25DGTE E-TEC Outboard Motor

This used Evinrude E25DGTE is a 25 HP, two-cylinder E-TEC in tiller trim, rope-started, with a remote-steering conversion listed as available rather than fitted standard. It suits a boat where hand steering at the motor works just as well as a console setup. Tiller now, remote later Because the conversion to remote steering is listed as available rather than built in, you can start with the simpler tiller setup and change the rigging down the line if your boating changes; just budget for the parts and labor that takes. An electric-start accessory is listed over the standard rope pull in the same way, letting you add a battery-dependent start method only if you want it. Weight and fit This motor weighs 154 lbs (70 kg) on a 20 in (508 mm) shaft; manual tilt and mechanical controls round out a rigging meant to be simple to maintain over its working life. Steering cable play is easy to check at the helm before buying; excess slack usually means a cable or helm unit nearing the end of its life. Keep the original mounting hardware if it comes with this motor; matched bolts and spacers save a trip to the hardware store when you remount it. Can I add electric start to this rope-start unit? Yes, it is listed as an accessory. Is this a new motor? No, the E25DGTE is sold used.
