Why Choose OEM

There’s a reason seasoned boaters stick with Mercury Marine OEM parts—they’re made to fit right, work right, and last. OEM components are tested under real-world boating conditions, from saltwater corrosion to heavy torque. Aftermarket parts might look similar, but they rarely match the precision or reliability of true factory pieces. With OEM, you know your outboard is getting the quality it was built for.
