2024 Mercury Racing 250R Base

2024 Mercury Racing 250R

The Mercury Racing 250R delivers unrivaled performance for lightweight, single-engine sport, bass and bay boats. The 250R outboard has the muscle to lift a heavy tournament boat out of the hole plus the deep-breathing power and high-performance components required to reach outrageous speeds, with confidence. Run with the Mercury Racing 250R on the transom and run out front.

Strong and rock-steady, the Mercury Racing tri-ram midsection features solid lower engine mounts and a high-durometer upper mount for enhanced stability and handling at high speeds, critical for confident control in the fastest, single-engine applications.

Mercury Racing has tuned the 250R outboard model to produce the perfect combination of low-end grunt and high-winding horsepower. A performance-tuned intake runner helps pack more air through the deep-breathing 32-valve dual overhead cam valve train to squeeze more power from the V8 4.6-liter engine. Mercury Transient Spark Technology optimizes torque output for stronger hole-shot performance.

Features may include:

• The Mercury Racing 250R delivers a reliable, powerful performance punch on readily available 87-octane fuel.

• Exclusive Idle Charge battery management helps prevent battery drain on boats loaded with power-hungry fishing electronics and audio systems. When Idle Charge detects low battery voltage it automatically increases idle rpm to boost alternator output until batteries are recharged. An 85 amp belt-driven alternator is designed to run cooler and maintain peak charging performance in the most-demanding conditions.

• SmartCraft® Integrated Marine Technology with Engine Guardian® monitors vital engine sensors for early indications of problems and takes corrective action to reduce the risk of engine damage. Critical engine data can also be displayed on a SmartCraft System instrument or a compatible display screen.
