Mercury 2006 Mercury 50 HP 2-Stroke 20″ (L)

Serial number 1B415401 identifies this 2006 Mercury 50 HP ELPTO, a two-stroke on a 20-inch shaft with 194 hours behind it, described by the seller as used and like new. What a two-stroke of this age asks of a buyer A two-stroke runs on fuel mixed with oil rather than drawing from a separate sump the way a four-stroke does, so the mix ratio this motor was tuned for is worth confirming with us before the first tank goes through it. At 194 hours, it has done real work rather than sitting unused, and the black finish is described as never having been repainted. It has been fully serviced and made ready to mount and run, though with a two-stroke this age a buyer should still plan on checking the water pump impeller and fuel lines early on, since age affects rubber parts even when the service record looks clean. What is included Controls ship with the motor, along with electric start, power trim, and a remote setup for steering and shift rather than a tiller at the motor itself. Fit the 20-inch shaft to a standard-height transom; confirm that measurement with us before ordering, since the wrong shaft length changes how deep the propeller sits once the boat is loaded and moving. A motor from this era with a documented hour count and a straightforward service history is often a more predictable buy than a newer unit with no record at all, provided the basics get checked once it is in your hands.
