Marine Boats Industry to reduce Petroleum-Based Plastics in Outboard Motor Packaging

By Combining Biodegradable Green Planet™ Shipping Material With Specially Shaped Corrugated Cardboard, Evinrude, Honda, Mercury, Suzuki Tohatsu, Torqeedo, Yamaha Outboards Will Be Protected While Protecting The Environment.
Marine Outboard Motor SG announced today that outboard motors will soon arrive from Evinrude, Honda, Mercury, Suzuki Tohatsu, Torqeedo, Yamaha Motor Company in specialized packaging developed to significantly reduce overall waste and the use of petroleum-based plastics.

Season after season, year after year, generations of boaters have confidently relied on Mercury 30hp FourStroke outboards. With easy installation, reliable, battery-free starts, and impressive performance, this FourStroke family makes the fun feel closer than ever. Mercury balanced the powerhead to make it smoother and crafted soft-rubber mounts that isolate vibration and direct it away. They’re among the lightest 3-cylinder outboards in their class. Whether you’re fishing in a quiet cove or having a conversation, you’ll enjoy every minute on the water.
The Mercury tiller adapts to you, not the other way around. You can reverse the grip for left- or right-handed throttling and laterally adjust the tiller angle for better leverage and control.
