Yamaha F30LA 30HP Outboard Motor - 20" Shaft

The Yamaha F30LA is a lightweight, easy-running 30-horsepower four-stroke designed for boaters who want the convenience of remote control steering and the added benefit of power trim & tilt. It's a great match for skiffs, bay boats, small center consoles, and aluminum fishing boats that need reliable power without going too big. With a 20-inch shaft, it fits most standard transoms and delivers smooth, efficient performance.

The three-cylinder engine is quiet, responsive, and fuel-efficient, and the EFI system helps with consistent starting and clean throttle transitions. Power trim & tilt makes dialing in the motor angle simple—whether you're trying to get on plane quicker, easing into shallow water, or loading the boat back on the trailer.
