Whether you are looking for an alternate motor to control trolling speed, give your main engine a break, or just for backup and peace of mind, the Mercury ProKicker series is designed and built to improve every aspect of your time on the water. The 9.9 ProKicker comes complete with Mercury's command thrust, a heavy-duty gearcase with gear shafts larger than those in standard outboards to give you the control you need to get your heavier boat on plane and keep it there at low speeds without impacting top speed. The Mercury 9.9hp features the fastest power tilt in the industry: drops Mercury 9.9 ProKicker outboards into the water in just five seconds. This outboards deeper gearcase and high-thrust four-blade propeller deliver greater trolling speed authority, making it an excellent choice for aluminum tiller, inflatable soft hull, utility, and sailboats.
