MFS30DL
Marine Engineer Insight: The Tohatsu MFS30DL (MPN MFS30DL) is the benchmark for mid-size portable power, engineered as the lightest 3-cylinder 30hp in its class. This 20" long shaft model features Tohatsu's revolutionary Battery-Less Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI), providing the reliability and efficiency of fuel injection with the simplicity of manual starting. Perfectly suited for sailboats, pontoon boats, and aluminum fishing vessels with higher transoms, the MFS30DL offers refined torque and smooth operation through its advanced multi-function tiller.
Superior Versatility & Lightweight Efficiency
The Tohatsu MFS30DL (MPN: MFS30DL) has been redesigned from the propeller up to prioritize a high power-to-weight ratio. By stripping away excess bulk without compromising internal durability, Tohatsu has created a 4-stroke outboard that is easy to handle and exceptionally fuel-efficient. The 3-cylinder SOHC engine architecture ensures a balanced, quiet ride, while the integrated EFI system guarantees turn-key reliability and optimized performance at any altitude or temperature.
This long-shaft model is equipped with a versatile multi-function tiller handle that places all critical controls—shifting, throttle, and stop-switch—at your fingertips. The integrated freshwater flushing system makes maintenance after a day in salt or brackish water simple and effective. For boaters who need a long-shaft 30hp motor that is as smart as it is strong, the MFS30DL represents the cutting edge of modern marine propulsion.
