Evinrude E25DRS E-TEC Outboard Motor

This used Evinrude E25DRS is a 25 HP, two-cylinder E-TEC built without a camshaft, belt, or set of exhaust valves, a direct-injection, two-stroke design meant to leave fewer parts able to wear out compared with a similarly sized four-stroke. It is tiller-steered, rope-started.

What the two-stroke design changes for upkeep

Fewer moving parts generally means less to service on a regular schedule, and this E-TEC's auto-storage ability can fog the engine for winter lay-up without a shop visit, useful if the boat sits idle part of the year. Converting to remote steering or adding electric start is possible later, since both appear as optional add-ons over this tiller, rope-start base, and trim stays manual throughout regardless of which conversions you add.

Dimensions

Expect 154 lbs on the scale and a shaft of 20 in; measure your transom before placing an order.

Check for play in the swivel and tilt pins, which loosen with age on motors that get tilted and trimmed often.

If your boat previously ran a different brand of outboard, double check that the control box and gauges are compatible before ordering this one.

Do I need a shop visit to winterize it? The auto-storage fogging function is built in to avoid that trip.

Is it a new motor? No, the E25DRS is used.
