Mercury 50HP ELPT Four-stroke Outboard | Scratch & Dent Level 1 | 6039

Unit 6039 carries a Scratch & Dent Level 1 cosmetic grade on an otherwise new Mercury 50HP ELPT four-stroke, weighing 247 lbs on the 20-inch long shaft.

Checklist before you order

Measure your transom against that 20-inch shaft figure, and plan for a remote, console-style steering setup since this motor is not tiller-steered. No propeller is part of the package with this listing, so factor that into your budget. An onboard starter handles ignition electrically, and tilt and trim move under power rather than by hand, so budget for the matching console switch at the helm. None of this changes because of the cosmetic grade; it affects only the exterior finish, not the mechanical layout.

Performance

EFI fuel delivery and a 60.8 displacement figure put this motor's full-throttle ceiling at 5000-6000 RPM, matching the rest of Mercury's 50HP ELPT line regardless of cosmetic grade. The Level 1 tag affects appearance only, not the drivetrain underneath it, so expect the same running characteristics as an unblemished unit of the same model.

Common questions

Does the Scratch & Dent tag mean it's used? No, the listing describes it as new with a Level 1 cosmetic grade, not a used or refurbished condition.

What ships with it? An owner's manual, mounting hardware, a tool kit, and a quick-connect fuel line.

Is there a warranty? Mercury Marine lists 3 years of coverage for this unit.
