Suzuki 300 HP DF300APLW2

The white-finished DF300APLW2 carries that same 245.6 cubic inch V6 tune, tipping the scale at 578 lb on a 20-inch shaft.

Same engine, different finish

Cowling color does not change the mechanical specification here: block, shaft length and electrical output are shared across both finishes offered on this model. Pick based on how it looks against your boat's hull and hardware rather than expecting any difference in performance.

Rotation choice

Standard and counter rotation are both offered, making it suitable either on its own or alongside a counter-rotation unit in a twin rig where propellers turn opposite directions, which keeps a twin-engine boat tracking straight at speed rather than pulling to one side.

Controls, charging and care

Shift and throttle are handled electronically by Suzuki Precision Control rather than by cable, and trim and tilt move electrically, set from the helm rather than by hand. A 54 amp alternator keeps electronics and trim systems powered together, electric start is standard, and a flushing port is built in for rinsing the block with fresh water after salt water use, a habit worth keeping up every season.

Does the white finish affect performance? No, it shares its block, weight and shaft length with the black-finished DF300APL2. Is counter rotation available? Yes, for a matched twin rig running opposite propellers on either side of the transom at the stern.
