Honda BF30D3LRT Outboard - 20" Shaft Remote Control Electric Start Power Tilt Silver. Overview. The BF30D3LRT is a feature-complete 30 HP outboard built for boats that want mid-range power with modern convenience. With remote control steering, electric start, and power tilt, this model integrates smoothly into console-rigged boats where ease of operation matters just as much as horsepower.. The 20" shaft ensures proper fit on long-transom boats, helping the prop stay planted when conditions aren't perfect. Power tilt adds real day-to-day value-whether you're trimming for shallow water, trailering, or dialing in ride attitude on the fly. Combined with electric start, it makes the engine feel like a natural extension of the boat rather than a separate piece of equipment.. Performance in the 30 HP class is strong but controlled. The engine accelerates cleanly, holds plane comfortably, and doesn't feel strained when carrying passengers or gear. Honda's four-stroke design keeps things quiet
