Mercury 15E FourStroke Outboard Motor

Remote steering sets this used Mercury 15E FourStroke apart from most of its siblings in the same 15 HP, two-cylinder family, which lean toward tiller control instead. Finished in Phantom Black at a dry 99 lb, it suits a boat already wired with a console-mounted throttle and shift box rather than a tiller handle. Fuel and trim Fuel comes from a 3.2-gallon remote tank rather than an internal reservoir, trim is adjusted by hand, and a shallow water setting opens the lower unit up to 16 degrees for running in thin water without dragging bottom. Mercury rates the fuel induction with a CARB star rating of 3. Coverage and buying notes Buyers get five years of coverage in total: Mercury's standard three-year term plus a two-year Product Protection Gold plan stacked on afterward. Since this is a used engine, confirm recorded hours and recent service with the seller before buying, and check that your boat's control box suits remote steering rather than a tiller. Is this tiller or remote steering? Remote, built for boats with existing throttle and shift controls instead of a tiller handle. What's the dry weight? 99 lb, which Mercury lists as the lightest model in its category. Is the trim power-operated? No, trim is adjusted by hand on this particular model, and tilt works the same manual way too.
