Do not overpower or overload your boat. Most boats will carry a
required capacity plate indicating the maximum acceptable power
and load as 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 never
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
Hi-Performance 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.
