Mercury 15HP 15EH EFI Outboard

The Mercury 15HP 15EH EFI Outboard is a new, tiller-steered 15 HP motor with electric start and a 15-inch short shaft, weighing 111 pounds complete with its tiller handle and control box.

Who a tiller layout like this suits

Tiller steering puts throttle, gear shift, and steering in one handle at the back of the boat, which suits small aluminum boats, jon boats, and similar craft run from the stern instead of a forward console. Electric start means turning a key rather than pulling a cord, which matters most to operators who find a pull-start awkward from a seated position.

Shaft length before you order

This 15-inch short shaft is one of several lengths Mercury offers on the same 15 HP block, and choosing wrong leaves the propeller riding too high or too low in the water, which hurts both thrust and cooling. Measure your transom rather than matching it to a boat you have seen elsewhere.

What it ships with

A three-blade aluminum propeller, a remote fuel tank with a quick-connect line, a safety lanyard stop switch, tool kit, and owner's manual all come with this new, fuel-injected motor.
