Mercury 100-200HP Complete Outboard Engines

How to Find the Right Mercury 100-to-200 Horsepower Complete Outboard

Having the right engine for your boat can help you enjoy a day of fishing or cruising on the water. When it comes to replacing your engine with a new 100-to-200 horsepower Mercury outboard for sale, purchasing a complete engine can be a cheaper option than repairing the existing one. Here are some tips and tricks that can help you narrow your options during your eBay search and find the right engine for your boat.

Here are some steps you can take to find a compatible engine for your boat:

• Engine size: For the 100-200 horsepower range, you can find options such as a 100-horsepower outboard and a used 150-horsepower mercury outboard for sale. You can filter the options to find a specific amount of horsepower for your boat's specifications.
• Features: Some Mercury motors will be compatible with joystick piloting and also have features like anti-corrosion protection.
• Condition: In addition to finding used 200-horsepower Mercury outboard motors for sale, you can find new and refurbished motors.
• Location: You can specify the location of the motor to help determine shipping costs and how long it will be until you have the motor in hand.

Some of the Mercury outboard engines you'll come across on eBay will be used, which is a completely viable option, especially when searching for inexpensive engines. When buying a used engine, you should look at the description to check on the condition of the motor. You should check for wires and components that show more than typical wear. One advantage of purchasing a used option is that it can come with extra components needed to install the motor, whereas a new one may offer them separately. When buying a used engine, you have the option of choosing a refurbished unit that was rebuilt with the worn-out and broken parts removed from the system and replaced. The people who refurbished the engine will have also tested it out to make sure it's been restored to factory specifications.

The pricing of a Mercury engine will vary depending on its power. A used Mercury 100-horsepower outboard engine will typically be cheaper than a used 200-horsepower Mercury outboard listed for sale. The number of hours run on a used engine can play a part in the pricing as well.
