Mercury 15EXLHPT ProKicker FourStroke

This used Mercury 15EXLHPT ProKicker FourStroke runs a 25-inch shaft and tiller steering, pairing power tilt with a 15 HP, two-cylinder engine at a dry weight of 99 lb. A longer shaft like this suits sailboats and larger hulls where the kicker motor's propeller needs to reach deeper, less turbulent water than a shorter shaft would reach.

Fuel options for kicker duty

Because ProKicker models are meant to run for long stretches as a secondary motor, Mercury offers a choice here between a 3.2-gallon tank and a larger 6.6-gallon one. CARB rates the fuel system at 3 stars, and electric start handles everyday starting rather than a pull cord.

Coverage and buying notes

Five years of total coverage back this engine, the standard three-year Mercury term plus a two-year Product Protection Gold plan on top. Since this is a used motor, confirm hours and recent service with the seller, and double check the 25-inch shaft fits your transom before ordering.
