Mercury Marine is introducing a newly designed top cowl for its 8hp and 9.9hp FourStroke outboards, along with new graphics for its powerful and precise 9.9 Pro Kicker outboard.

The new top cowl, with a contemporary and forward-looking design, aligns the 8hp and 9.9hp engines with the rest of Mercury’s FourStroke outboard lineup.

Likewise, the new graphics on the 9.9 Pro Kicker align with the new “Pro” series of Mercury outboards and harmonises with the larger FourStrokes models.

Mercury outboards, including the 8 and 9.9hp models, are recognised around the world for their lightweight, compact design as well as their exceptional durability, reliability and performance. A refined fuel system delivers consistent, easy and reliable starting and smooth operation.

For the 8 and 9.9hp engines a large carrying handle provides easy portability.

Mercury’s ProKicker outboards feature a deeper gearcase and a four-blade, high-thrust propeller with matching gear ratio. The ProKicker gearcase is engineered to be rugged and durable, with robust gears and bearings and a heavy-duty skeg that’s 55% thicker and twice as strong side-to-side as the previous gearcase.

As with all Mercury outboards – from 2.5 to 400hp – the 8 and 9.9hp engines deliver ease of mind with the industry’s leading anti-corrosion protection.
