Yamaha 30HP | F30LEHA

The Yamaha F30LEHA brings a 30 hp, three-cylinder four-stroke to a tiller-steered boat, on a 20-inch shaft, with electric start and Nitro Assist Tilt for easier manual tilting at the motor. At 223 pounds, it suits lightweight aluminum and inflatable boats steered from the stern.

Portability considerations

Even with electric start, a tiller-handled 30 hp outboard like this one stays light enough for smaller trailerable boats, and the tilt-assist system means one person can tip the motor for shallow-water running or loading onto a trailer without straining.

What's included

This unit comes with the fuel line, a safety lanyard, and the owner's manual, plus the Nitro Assist Tilt feature. A propeller is not part of the package.

Fitment

Confirm your boat is set up for tiller control and that a 20-inch shaft matches your transom. A battery is required for the starter.

Break-in routine

Spend the first few hours varying throttle rather than holding one steady rpm, including some time at lower speed and some near the top of the range; that variation helps a new three-cylinder engine like this one seat properly before you lean on it hard.

Engine

747cc across three cylinders, electronic fuel injection, sold new.

Common questions

Does Nitro Assist Tilt replace power tilt? No, it is a manual tilt-assist feature, not a powered trim system.
