Mercury 300HP CXL FourStroke Outboard White

The Mercury 300HP CXL FourStroke Outboard White is a new V8 with remote mechanical steering, offered in three white finishes, with counter rotation available for twin-engine installs.

Rigging

Remote mechanical steering pairs this engine with a console, cables, and a control box rather than a tiller handle; check your existing rigging, or budget for new cables and a box, before ordering. Shaft length here is Mercury's X-long option in this range; before ordering, check the precise figure with us, since that detail did not print cleanly on this particular unit.

Specifications

At 527 lbs dry, this V8 starts on a key and draws fuel through electronic injection. Running angle is set from a switch, not a lever, since power trim and tilt comes standard, a real help when positioning an engine this heavy for shallow water. Counter rotation suits the second engine in a paired setup, letting propellers on each side spin opposite ways.

Color, inclusions, and warranty

Mercury offers this finish as three distinct whites, named warm fusion, cold fusion, or pearl fusion, so you can match an existing hull color rather than settle for one plain shade. Alongside the owner's manual and mounting bolts, Mercury throws in a basic tool kit, with 3 years of factory warranty behind the engine. This engine ships without a propeller, so choose one to suit your boat before heading out.
