Mercury Outboards

Mercury outboards offer a full range of outboard options from 2.5 to 400hp so you will be able to find the best power available. Whether it’s a quiet FourStroke, the lightning fast OptiMax or the supercharged Verado, every Mercury Engine gives you reliability and fuel efficiency.

The Mercury Verado 350hp joins Mercury’s class-leading family of four and six-cylinder supercharged FourStroke outboards. Built on Mercury’s proven supercharged inline, six-cylinder Verado outboard engine, the Verado 350 delivers unsurpassed speed and overall performance without sacrificing durability and cruise fuel economy. True to the Verado brand, the new 350 provides class-leading performance. The engine has superior torque across the operating range, creating rocket like holeshot, faster top-end speed and superb cruising performance.

The Mercury Racing Verado 400R is Mercury’s most powerful consumer outboard ever produced guaranteed to provide a real adrenaline rush. This incredible achievement in power and efficiency was achieved through a number of advancements to the proven 2.6L Verado platform. This powerhouse is designed to complement the latest generation high-performance hulls.

The Mercury MerCruiser 4.5L inboard engine will also be on the stand. This engine sets new standards for acceleration and overall performance and produces an outstanding power-to-weight ratio.

Mercury Marine is leading the industry with boating innovations, and the new VesselView® 903 is the largest and most advanced multifunction display to join their expanding portfolio of systems including joystick piloting for outboards, Active Trim, Skyhook GPS digital anchoring, VesselView® 703 and VesselView® Link.

Mercury Active Trim is an integrated GPS based system that automatically trims outboard and sterndrive engines will be on the stand. The hands-free Active Trim system continually adjusts engine trim based on changes in boat speed to improve performance, fuel economy and ease of operation and delivers a better overall driving experience. No knowledge of trimming an engine is needed to take advantage of Active Trim – it’s equally suited to new boaters and old hands.

Mercury engines will also be fitted to a number of Quicksilver boats on Stand LE170 and inflatable boats on Stand LD166.
