Evinrude E25DPGL E-TEC Outboard Motor

This used Evinrude E25DPGL trims by hand rather than a powered switch: manual tilt, on a 25 HP, two-cylinder E-TEC. Steering is tiller with a remote conversion listed as available, and starting is by rope with electric listed as an accessory.

What manual tilt asks of you

Without a powered trim motor, adjusting running angle means lifting and setting the engine by hand at the transom, manageable at this weight but worth considering if you tilt the motor often, such as beaching or trailering regularly. Mechanical controls keep the rest of the rigging simple too, with nothing electronic to diagnose if something stops working on a boat ramp far from a shop.

Numbers to check

Recorded weight is 154 lbs, and the shaft is 20 in; compare both against your boat's transom before ordering this particular unit.

A used motor's trim or tilt seals are worth a look for weeping fluid, which is a simple, inexpensive fix if caught early.

Ask us whether this motor's cowling and decals match its model code, since parts occasionally get swapped between motors that have changed hands more than once over the years on their way here.

Can I upgrade to power tilt? Power tilt is not part of this rigging, so plan on trimming by hand.

Is it new? No, this E25DPGL is used; confirm hours and service history with us.
