We understand how important it is that your outboard starts with the first turn of the key. To be able to focus on reading the water for signs of fish or finding that perfect cove, rather than being preoccupied with your equipment. This is what drives us to engineer our four-stroke outboards in the meticulous way we do. We suppose we could have engineered our 4.2-liter V6 outboards without incorporating advanced technologies such as plasma-fused sleeveless...

are simply unwilling to make, because we want our products to provide the boating experiences and memories you deserve. Our spirit of innovation continues in 2015.
