Mercury 90HP ELPT FourStroke Outboard w/ Command Thrust

This new 90HP ELPT FourStroke Outboard adds Mercury's Command Thrust gearcase onto the familiar 90 hp platform, still riding a 20 inch long shaft with electric start.

Why Command Thrust

This gearcase suits owners running a loaded or heavier boat who want more push at low speed, without changing the top-end numbers much; remote mechanical steering and the 20 inch shaft carry over unchanged from the standard ELPT.

Specs

At 363 lbs dry, it runs 2.1 liters of EFI-fed displacement, spins to a full throttle window of 5000 to 6000 rpm, and carries power trim and tilt. A propeller is not included.

Who it suits

Boats that regularly carry heavier loads, tow, or sit low at idle are where this upgrade earns its keep, since the Command Thrust gearcase is built around pushing extra weight at low speed rather than chasing top-end numbers.

What's in the box

Mounting hardware, a tool kit, and the owner's manual ship with it, under Mercury Marine's 3-year warranty.
