Overview Mercury 80hp Jet Outboard 80ELPT
The Mercury 80hp Jet Outboard 80ELPT is a high-output four-stroke jet outboard engineered to operate confidently in shallow, debris-filled waters. By replacing the traditional gearcase with a jet pump, this engine allows boats to access rivers, flats, and rescue zones that are inaccessible to propeller-driven outboards.
Features and Performance
- Jet Drive Propulsion System – Enables safe operation in very shallow water without exposed propellers
- Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) – Smooth throttle response, reliable starts, and optimized fuel efficiency
- Stainless Steel Jet Impeller – Designed to handle sand, shells, and abrasive debris
- High-Displacement 2.1L Engine – Delivers strong, consistent power for demanding conditions
- High-Output Alternator (35 Amp) – Supports electronics with a water-cooled voltage regulator
- Power Trim & Tilt – Improves handling, docking, and variable-depth control
These features combine to deliver strong thrust, improved safety, and long-term reliability in harsh operating environments.
