Mercury 200 Pro FourStroke – Quimby's Cruising Guide

Mercury 200 Pro FourStroke


Mercury Marine has introduced its new 200 Pro FourStroke outboard. The engine – the third in the Pro FourStroke family – combines the top acceleration and speed of other Mercury Pro series outboards, including the OptiMax Pro XS, with the pleasingly quiet, smooth operation of the Mercury Verado.


The 200 Pro FourStroke is built on the same six-cylinder Verado outboard platform as the 250 and 300 Pro FourStroke models, delivering outstanding hole shot and punchy mid-range acceleration. State-of-the-art Verado supercharged technology allows precise, programmable control over the fueling strategy and air intake. No competing engine can manage intake with this degree of precision because no other engine is supercharged with computer-controlled boost.


The outstanding torque and overall performance of the 200 Pro FourStroke make it ideal for pontoons, saltwater bay and flats boats and freshwater fishing boats. The 200 Pro FourStroke comes standard with the Advanced Mid Section (AMS), Digital Throttle and Shift (DTS) and electro-hydraulic power steering for an unrivaled driving experience.


The 200 Pro FourStroke will be available for purchase in spring 2014.
