Suzuki 25 HP DF25ATL Outboard Motor

Suzuki's 25 HP DF25ATL moves steering and throttle off the motor entirely, wiring in remote controls at the helm, paired with a 20-inch long shaft and power trim and tilt.

Remote control setup

A side-mount control box and harness ship standard with this motor so throttle and gear shift sit at a console rather than on the engine itself, which suits small sailboats, skiffs and jon boats steered from a fixed helm position rather than from the transom. The long shaft matches a deeper transom than the short-shaft, tiller-steered motors in this lineup.

Power and propeller

Electric start is standard, and the trim and tilt angle is set from the console rather than by hand at the back of the boat. The propeller for this configuration is a 9.25 by 10 inch three-blade unit, sized specifically for this rigging.

In the box

Suzuki packs in a 6-gallon external fuel tank and line, a tool kit, the owner's manual, and the 3 year factory warranty with this motor. A fresh water flush after running in salt water is worth adding to your routine, and the control box harness simplifies wiring the throttle into most console layouts.

Does this version use a tiller? No, steering and throttle run through remote controls with a side-mount box and harness. What propeller size does it use? A three-blade unit, 9.25 by 10 inches.
