Why is the Mercury Racing 60R so cool?

The 60R is cool because it is diminutive, it’s a genuine Mercury Racing engine, but it also might represent a new direction for Mercury Racing, specialty engines for all horsepower.

Is the Mercury 60 the new F4 boat?

What is a formula 60 4 cylinder?

The little 4 cyl 60 HP is based on the popular Mercury 60 four stroke, and Mercury Racing has had a competition version called the Formula Race 60 aimed at the F4 tunnel boat race series overseas for a long time.

Will there be a market for the Mercury 60R?

If you use Mercury Racing’s business logic, there is a huge skiff market for the 60R, then you could apply that to other engines as well. There is a huge performance bass, flats and bay boat market that could use true performance 150 HP to 225 HP outboards, where the V8 is too big, a 15” mid 4 cylinder and V6 with optional gear ratios makes sense.
