Mercury Extreme Reliability Boating is not often thought of as a harsh environment. Just stop and think about it. Marine engines can and are often used for extended periods at wide-open throttle in harsh saltwater and full UV sunlight. Then sit in storage over the off season, in some cases without any use. At Mercury, we test our engines mercilessly and use those results to make them even more reliable. The tougher the test, the tougher the engine. We put our engines through tests such as vicious log strikes, saltwater spray booths, high humidity chambers and hot and cold water temperatures. That’s just phase one of our brutal testing process. Then we run each engine rigorously for thousands of hours to prove it can stand the test of time. So whatever you put the engine through we have already done it. We not only test our engines meticulously, we support them with an industry leading warranty too.

3-year Corrosion Warranty A lot of manufacturers talk about their corrosion resistant outboards but Mercury Marine is the only manufacturer who backs it up with an exclusive 3-year limited corrosion warranty. And that’s only the beginning.

Corrosion Resistance There is a big difference in metals and how they react in saltwater. That difference can be the choice between years of boating fun or costly corrosion failures and high labour bills. Mercury’s proprietary formula is melted at our foundry in Fond Du Lac, WI, USA. We call it XK360. It is an extremely low copper content aluminium alloy, which leads the industry in corrosion resistance. Mercury Marine’s XK360 alloy is not just the industry leader, it is the industry standard.

Unbeatable Warranty All recreational models from the 300hp Verado to a 2.5hp TwoStroke Mercury Outboard, receive a fully transferable, non declining warranty that goes deeper than the rest. A comprehensive warranty that’s supported by the strength and service expertise of one of the biggest dealer networks in the country. Simply have your engine serviced at an Authorised Service Centre at the recommended routine servicing/maintenance requirements set by Mercury Marine, and you’re covered by an additional 2-year factory backed warranty on top of the first 3 years. That’s a full 5 years of warranty coverage. 33

When Mercury set out to engineer the perfect outboard, we questioned everything: every number, every scenario, every detail. The result? Verado®, the world’s most reliable and advanced propulsion system. Boating choices were once black and white: 4-stroke engines boasted advanced technology and reliability, but couldn’t equal the acceleration of traditional 2-strokes. Mercury, driven by a history of innovation, set out to manufacture a FourStroke engine that would deliver performance and reliability with an automotive-like driving experience. And we came up with Verado, the world’s first supercharged production outboard engine. In 4 or 6 cylinder, Verado delivers an amazing driving experience, pleasantly quiet, virtually vibration free, they provide unequalled out of the hole performance, mid range acceleration and top speed - with style, comfort and reliability.

With superior acceleration and higher top speeds these, FourStroke powerplants will get you to your fishing spot before everyone else.

Digital Throttle & Shift. Agility comes standard.

NEW Mercury Joystick Piloting for Outboards

Every Verado engine has Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS) as standard. DTS sends electronic signals from the controls to the engine and back, to give you smooth, precise gear shifts and lightning quick throttle response, just like you’d expect from a car. More reliable than standard throttle cables, which can be prone to stretching, kinking or fraying, DTS provides a dependable link between your helm controls and engine, meaning no throttle cable adjustments.

Take the stress out of docking your outboard boat with Mercury’s new Joystick pilot system. Offering an incredible level of precise control, this system not only allows you to pivot the boat on its own axis, you can also make precise sideways movements without costly bow or stern thrusters. While Mercury’s Joystick pilot makes docking easy and enjoyable, you will find it handy at sea too. Equipped with Skyhook GPS anchoring, it will keep where you need to be regardless of the conditions.

Advanced Midsection cradle

Now available on twin, triple or quad 250hp and 300hp Verado powered vessels.

Verado 6-cylinder models feature AMS – an Advanced MidSection cradle mount that surrounds the powerhead to virtually eliminate vibration while in motion. The mounting system also stiffens as thrust load increases to improve handling. This unique system has also been shown to generate more lift and better top speed performance.

FourStroke The most compact, lowest weight, most durable 150hp FourStroke outboard the world has ever seen. The innovation behind this 150hp FourStroke has come directly from you, our customer, after extensive feedback on our products and global surveys. We’ve delivered: FourStroke Technology for maximum fuel economy and smoothness Large Displacement for “out of the hole” performance Compact and lowest weight design for better hull manoeuvrability Fewer moving parts for less friction and greater reliability Quiet operation making it easy to converse More stainless steel for longevity Best in class Battery “On-demand” charging system to ensure optimum power to all your electronic accessories

Highest displacement in its class Higher displacement means less work from the engine to produce torque and horsepower. More traditional 4-Strokes take twice as long to perform the same cylinder operations (intake, compression, ignition, and exhaust) as 2-Strokes do. The Mercury 150hp FourStroke is built to develop loads of torque at a stress level that will ensure higher durability than any other 150 horsepower outboard. Higher displacement simply means more torque and horsepower. The Mercury 150hp FourStroke is the only 150hp FourStroke to have a torque curve rivalling the strongest 2-Strokes.

Compact design The 150hp FourStroke weighs just 206kgs and has almost 20% fewer parts than the competition. A smaller compact design and a lighter weight reduces the overall package weight of the boat, which, depending on the hull, will improve performance and efficiency.

Maintenance-free valve train Unlike many competitors’ 4-Strokes, Mercury’s durable valve train stays maintenance-free for life, lowering cost of ownership and giving you more time in the water. It features the race proven “Roller Finger Followers” and oversized valves, offering a more reliable, more efficient, power design.

150hp EFI 12

FourStroke Mid Range Every 115-75hp is built to run quiet and smooth, delivering long term, reliable performance you can depend on. Our fully filtered air intakes protect internal engine components from potentially damaging dust and sand, while our advanced anti-drain-back oil system assures instant lubrication on start-up. More stainless steel, hard anodizing, and our exclusive multi-step paint process add up to superior corrosion resistance. All together, these elements combine to provide the engine security you not only crave, but deserve. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because every component on our FourStrokes are designed to deliver ultimate durability.

Maintenance-free Valve Train The 115-75hp FourStroke models feature the same valve train architecture as Verado â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a robust design that is incredibly durable and maintenance-free for life.

BigFoot

Superior corrosion protection

Houseboats, pontoons or heavy vessels are unique; they sit high above the water and are hydro-dynamically different from other boats. In response to those and other challenges, Mercury developed BigFoot, the industry’s first outboard engine made specifically for houseboats, pontoons or heavy vessels.

Mercury FourStrokes deliver powerful saltwater protection by using more stainless steel components, hard anodizing, engineered polymers and exclusive multi-step painting and coating processes. Saltwater maintenance is made easy in the 150-40hp models with the innovative Freshwater Flushing System and... only Mercury Marine offers a 3-year limited corrosion failure warranty.

BigFoot engines are built with a taller, heavy-duty gear case, larger gears and shafts (up to 33% larger than standard outboards) and that places the propeller deeper in the water dramatically improving performance by being able to run a larger propeller. The BigFoot’s propeller has up to 20 percent more surface area than the standard propeller, providing more working surface for greater overall thrust, acceleration and manoeuvrability.

This ergonomically-friendly big tiller is a joy to use, with integrated shift, trim and throttle controls. User-friendly adjustment knobs allow for easy modification of the tiller handle angle, throttle handle and valve tension – and operating it is a breeze thanks to the proximity of the shift arm to the throttle end of the tiller. Created specifically for high horsepower Mercury outboard engines, the handle adapts to: > 150hp to 40hp EFI FourStroke > 250hp to 75hp OptiMax engines > 200hp to 135hp four-cylinder Verado engines with SmartCraft Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS) Available options include external trim switches, such as foot trims; and push-button RPM adjuster which means better control and manoeuvrability; and power steering on some models.

Mercury Oils and Lubricants As perfect as the engine they go into. Mercury Oils and Lubricants are specifically engineered for the unique needs of marine engines and rigorously tested to meet our high standards. So you can get the most out of your engine while having total peace of mind that your engine is being protected. Exactly what you should expect from the only marine engine manufacturer 100% focused on the marine industry for over 70 years.
