Mercury 50hp Command Thrust Outboard | 50ELPT

Experience the power, precision, and reliability of the Mercury 50HP Command Thrust Outboard (50ELPT), designed specifically to deliver unmatched performance in Australian and New Zealand waters. Whether you’re fishing the pristine waters of the Great Barrier Reef or cruising through Auckland Harbour, this outboard motor offers the ideal balance of power and control for larger boats, pontoons, and work vessels.

Powered by Mercury’s advanced Command Thrust technology, this 50hp outboard features a larger gearcase and propeller that provide superior thrust and enhanced manoeuvrability at low speeds. This means you get exceptional grip and acceleration, ensuring smooth handling even when carrying heavy loads or navigating challenging conditions commonly experienced in our region’s diverse waterways.

Equipped with efficient 4-stroke EFI (Electronic Fuel Injection) technology, the 50ELPT guarantees smooth starts without the hassle of a choke, instant throttle response, and improved fuel economy — making your trips longer and less costly. Its cold start capabilities are especially beneficial during early morning fishing trips in cooler climates found along the southern coasts of Australia and New Zealand.

The outboard’s electric start system combined with power trim & tilt controls allow for effortless ignition and fine-tuned adjustment of the motor’s angle, facilitating easier docking, shallow water navigation, and better fuel efficiency. This design is perfect for navigating the varied and sometimes tight marinas and harbours of the AU/NZ coastline.

Durability is paramount for any marine engine, and the Mercury 50HP Command Thrust Outboard is built to withstand harsh saltwater and freshwater environments alike. Its anti-corrosion coating and rugged components ensure longevity and reduce maintenance frequency—ideal for those frequently boating in the exposed saltwater conditions of places like Moreton Bay or the Marlborough Sounds.

Beyond performance, this model is designed for smooth and quiet operation. Its 4-stroke engine significantly reduces noise and vibration, providing a comfortable ride whether you’re on a long fishing expedition or family outing. Additionally, lower emissions demonstrate Mercury’s commitment to environmental stewardship, helping preserve Australia’s and New Zealand’s beautiful waterways for future generations.
