3 Mercury MerCruiser: Highest in Customer Satisfaction with Sterndrive Engines, Two Years in a Row For the second year in a row, J.D. Power and Associates named MerCruiser Highest in Customer Satisfaction with Sterndrive Engines. So, if you are looking for the ultimate in reliability and performance, you ve come to the right place. MERCURY INSTALLATION QUALITY SYSTEM We extend our commitment to quality even further through the Installation Quality Certification System. Look for the Installation Quality emblem, which means your boat s manufacturer has met world-class quality standards and that your boat carries an additional year of MerCruiser warranty.

4 Single or twin applications up to 65 mph for gas engines up to 300 hp THE MOST POPULAR STERNDRIVE IN THE WORLD. The Alpha sterndrive earned the title of world s most popular sterndrive because it delivers reliable performance in a value package. Reliable performance means more family fun year after year without missing a beat. Alpha drives slice through the water with an efficient hydrodynamic profile producing very little drag. And because of the Alpha drive s many maintenance-free features you ll enjoy a worry-free ownership experience. 4.3L With 190 hp and featuring the MerCruiserpatented Turn-Key Starting (TKS) System, the 4.3L is the perfect workhorse to power the Alpha drive in your runabout or pontoon boat. RELIABILITY Spiral-cut steel bevel gears for quiet operation and extended durability Proprietary XK-360 low-copper aluminum alloy for corrosion resistance PERFORMANCE Through-prop exhaust maximizes power and reduces noise Three-, four- and five-blade propellers available for pulling power or top-speed applications EASY OWNERSHIP Drive Lube Monitor alerts you with an alarm when lube is low Permalube U-joints eliminate the need for periodic lubrication FLO-TORQ II PROPELLER HUB More than just safeguarding the lower unit, the Flo-Torq II protects the entire drive from damage. If the propeller strikes an object, the Flo-Torq II hub will take the force of the blow without passing it on to the drive unit. The hub can be replaced and save your weekend, rather than putting you out of action. LOW-DRAG HYDRODYNAMIC TORPEDO Less resistance translates into better performance, fuel economy and handling.
