Do not overpower or overload your boat. Most boats will carry a required

determined by the manufacturer following certain federal guidelines. If in doubt,
contact your dealer or the boat manufacturer.

High‑Speed and High‑Performance Boat Operation
If your outboard is to be used on a high‑speed or high‑performance boat with
which you are unfamiliar, we recommend that you do not operate it at its high
speed capability without first requesting an initial orientation and familiarization
demonstration ride with your dealer or an operator experienced with your boat/
outboard combination. For additional information, obtain a copy of our
HiPerformance Boat Operation booklet from your dealer, distributor, or
Mercury Marine.
Outboard Remote Control Models
The remote control connected to your outboard must be equipped with a start
in neutral only protection device. This prevents the engine from starting when
the shift is actuated in any position other than neutral.
!
WARNING
Starting the engine with the drive in gear can cause serious injury or death.
Never operate a boat that does not have a neutral‑safety‑protection device.
