FourStroke Advantage

• COMFORT: With a balanced powerhead and sophisticated, vibration-dampening cowl design, Mercury FourStroke outboards deliver an exceptionally smooth and quiet ride at any speed.
• DURABILITY: Premium corrosion-preventive technologies and durable components ensure FourStroke outboards can stand up to the most demanding marine environments.
• COMPACT DESIGN: Ideal for new engine setups or repowers, the slender width of a Mercury FourStroke outboard fits most transoms, including those with narrow engine wells and tight motor spacing.
• EFFICIENCY: Explore farther and stay out longer thanks to impressive power-to-weight ratios, intelligent fuel systems and optimized fuel injection (on most models) that maximize performance from every drop of fuel.

FourStroke Performance Data

• EXCEPTIONALLY SMOOTH & QUIET: The V8 300hp FourStroke outboard is 33% quieter at cruise with 30% less transmitted vibration at idle than the leading four-stroke competitor.
• HIGH DISPLACEMENT: The high-displacement, quad-cam design of the V8 FourStroke powerhead generates serious torque, especially at mid-range, for quick acceleration and exciting speeds.
• LIGHT & COMPACT: The V8 300hp FourStroke outboard is the lightest in the 300hp class by more than 20 pounds. Both V8 models mount on 26-inch centers for easy repowers or new installation on a wide range of boats.
