Mercury 300L FourStroke DTS Outboard Motor

The Mercury 300L FourStroke DTS Outboard Motor sets a new standard for high-performance boating in Australia and New Zealand. Designed to meet the demanding needs of anglers fishing the pristine waters of the Great Barrier Reef or cruisers navigating Auckland Harbour, this V8 powerhouse combines cutting-edge technology with robust engineering to deliver unmatched power, efficiency, and reliability.

At its heart, the Mercury 300L features a 4.6-litre, 279 CID V8 engine with a 64-degree cylinder configuration, equipped with Dual Overhead Cams (DOHC) and 32 valves for optimum airflow and combustion efficiency. This sophisticated setup produces a commanding 300 horsepower, ensuring fast, smooth acceleration and sustained cruising speeds across diverse marine environments.

Fuel efficiency and environmental responsibility are priorities with the 300L. The electronically fuel-injected (EFI) system uses advanced range optimization for precise fuel delivery, adhering to tough CARB 3-star emissions standards—a crucial feature for eco-conscious boaters throughout Australasia.

Built for versatility, the 20-inch shaft length and a lightweight dry weight of just 527 lbs make this outboard motor suitable for various vessel types, from mid-sized fishing boats to spacious recreational cruisers. The inclusion of power trim and tilt allows for accurate boat trim adjustment, improving fuel economy and ride comfort even in choppy coastal conditions.

The Mercury 300L doesn’t just deliver power—it offers peace of mind. Buyers benefit from a comprehensive 5-year factory-backed limited coverage package, which includes the standard 3-year warranty and an additional 2-year Mercury Product Protection Gold plan. This unmatched warranty underscores Mercury’s confidence in their product quality and durability for the rugged marine conditions experienced in the AU/NZ waters.

SmartCraft digital technology integration, featuring Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS), further enhances control and precision, making it easier to manoeuvre in tight harbours, rivers, or offshore fishing spots. The SmartCraft Engine Guardian system actively monitors engine parameters to prevent potential damage and ensure safe operation.
