Evinrude E30DGTL E-TEC Outboard Motor

This used Evinrude E30DGTL is a 30 HP, two-cylinder E-TEC with power trim and tilt rather than a manual lever, and both electric and rope starting built in as standard. Hand steering at the motor is the default here, with a kit for remote control offered separately. What power trim and tilt add Instead of lifting the motor by hand to change running angle, a powered trim and tilt system adjusts it at the push of a switch, which matters more as the boat's load and speed increase. Having rope starting alongside the electric key is a backup if the battery ever runs low, and a tiller conversion stays on the table if you decide you prefer hand steering instead of a console. Weight for planning This unit comes to 187 lbs (85 kg) on a 20 in (508 mm) shaft; plan your bracket and transom around that figure. A used motor's cowling latches should close snugly; a loose fit can let water in and is worth checking before you buy. Ask about the most recent fuel used in this motor; two-stroke oil mix ratios matter, and an incorrect mix over time can affect how an engine runs over its life. Is tilt manual or powered? Powered; this unit has power trim and tilt. Does it start electrically? Yes, electric and rope starting are both fitted as standard.
