Smith's RV Centre

Clean, Quiet and Fuel Efficient

The 40-60hp are available in both Standard and BigFoot gearcase models.  BigFoot models are perfect for pontoons and large boats, while the Standard models are ideal for aluminum fishing boats, bay boats and inflatables.  The Mercury 40-60hp Four-Strokes models distinguish themselves with many features you just won’t find on other engines.  Features that make your boating experience a pure pleasure.

 Features

• EASY STARTS. SMOOTH RUNNING.
  The 40 - 60 hp Mercury engines are Electronically Fuel-Injected, which provides turn-key starting, increased power, improved fuel economy and spectacular reliability.
• TAKE IT SLOW
  On 40-60 hp equipped with SmartCraft, the Troll Control feature allows you to set your rpm as low as 700 for trolling or running through extended no-wake zones.
• LESS FUEL, MEANS MORE FUN
  The 40-60hp models deliver up to 40% better fuel economy than carbureted 2- stroke models and up to 20% better than directed injected 2-strokes.

• PEACE OF MIND
  Engine Guardian uses more than 40 sensors to monitor functions of your engine. If the proactive operator-warning system detects a potential problem - such as overreving, overheating or low oil pressure - Engine Guardian sends out an alert and automatically reduces engine power to prevent damage.
• EASY SHIFTING
  A New Precision Engineered Shift system delivers smooth, positive shifting for an improved driving experience.
