Mercury portables

Mercury says its four-stroke portable outboards – starting at just 2.5 hp and 19 kilograms – offer clean, quiet, fuel-efficient power and ease of use.

An exclusive all-in-one multifunctional tiller handle gives drivers total control with easy, one-handed shifting, stopping, steering, throttle, tilt and start on all Mercury four-strokes from 8hp and up.

There’s also an easy to use steering co-pilot and the tiller arm can fold up or down for added convenience. These little engines also feature noise-reducing cowls, air intake silencers and through-prop exhausts which make them unbelievably quiet. An ignition system featuring CDI (with electric spark advance) means getting underway is a certainty.

These portables are excellent for trolling at low speeds, and dual water intakes mean you don’t have to worry about overheating problems.

Mercury's portables are covered by an unmatched 3-year corrosion warranty and its 3+2=5 Year factory backed engine warranty.
