Mercury - Vented Splash Cover | 8M0228514

Everyday protection for your 225 HP inline-six cowling—built for running and trailering.

Keep your Mercury 225 HP L6 looking sharp with a vented splash cover that is made to fit the inline-six cowling profile. The tailored shape hugs the curves for a clean, secure fit that helps reduce flapping at speed. A Polysoft II marine-grade outer shell helps shed spray while still allowing airflow, which helps reduce trapped moisture. Inside, a soft, non-abrasive liner helps protect your finish, and UV-stable pigments plus official Mercury graphics maintain a factory look season after season.

Made for use while running your outboard—ideal for day-to-day boating, dockside protection, and road trips between ramps.
