Verado 350 hp4.6L V8 and 2.6L Supercharged L6Mercury V10 350-425hp Verado outboards prove you can have it all – speed, comfort, efficiency and reliability. Built for extreme endurance and engineered to dominate, V10 Verado redefines high-horsepower outboard performance, delivering an exceptional experience without compromise. |
Effortless OperationDigital Throttle & Shift (DTS) controls deliver smooth, quiet shifting and instant throttle response, with zero hesitation. You can further enhance handling and performance with available Electric Steering for multi-engine boats. Whisper-quiet and ultra-responsive, the system consumes less than half the electrical power as electro-hydraulic steering. (Single-engine Electric Steering coming later this year.) |
Adaptive Speed ControlThe Adaptive Speed Control feature lets you maintain engine rpm despite changes in load or conditions. Climbing large swells is easier. Cruising at low speeds is smoother. Carving out tight turns is effortless. You just point the bow toward your destination, and Verado takes it from there. |
Precision GearcaseAt high speeds, the hydrodynamic gearcase slips effortless through the water, maximizing efficiency and enhancing stability. At low speeds, its large-diameter Revolution X™ prop powerfully grips the water, giving you confident, authoritative handling around the docks, while providing instant hole shots when it’s time to move. |
Exceptionally Smooth & QuietThe rugged, refined Advanced MidSection (AMS) mounting system cradles the powerhead to isolate vibration, while careful tuning dampens induction sounds and nearly eliminates injection noise. So you can enjoy your conversations and cruise with comfort. |
Advanced Sound ControlChoose the sound that moves you with the industry-exclusive Advanced Sound Control feature. It lets you toggle between a whisper-quiet exhaust tone or a throatier growl at startup and idle, for those times you truly want to hear the horsepower. |
Enhanced AccelerationThe latest 350hp Verado outboard has been performance tuned to deliver an even greater mid-range punch, resulting in 15% faster 0-50 mph acceleration compared to the original V10 350hp outboard. It’s also 17.8 seconds faster from 0 to top speed than a 350hp competitior. |
SmartCraft. The Power To Do More.Mercury SmartCraft® digital technologies refine the entire boating experience to ensure every day on the water reaches its full potential. From intelligent gauges and displays to advanced systems that make boat control easy, SmartCraft gives you the power to do more with your time on the water.

Lightweight & EfficientOn the water, there are perceptions and there's performance. V10 Verado outboards are calibrated to deliver raw performance on 87-octane fuel. A closed-loop fuel system and Advanced Range Optimization (ARO) maximize range and efficiency, while an aluminum engine block and lightweight cowl reduce transom load to further enhance performance. |
Quiet & SmoothIndustry-leading technology works to minimize noise, vibration and harshness to ensure that V10 Verado outboards deliver an uncompromising boating experience that delights the senses without overpowering them. At idle, cruise and wide-open throttle, V10 Verado outboards are significantly quieter than every other outboard in their class. |
Thrilling Speed & AccelerationV10 Verado redefines high-horsepower performance. The 350hp model is 17.8 seconds faster from 0 to top speed than a 350hp competitor, while the 425hp Verado can beat a 450hp competitor out of the hole on a heavily-loaded boat. |
ComfortThe Mercury-exclusive Advanced MidSection (AMS) isolates the powerhead to deliver a smoother, quieter ride than ever before. It’s comfort in a class of its own. |
Easy MaintenanceAn easy-access door on the top cowl takes the hassle out of routine engine oil checks and fills. On the V12 Verado outboard, all 200-hour service procedures can be done while the boat is in the water. |
DurabilityPremium corrosion-preventive technologies and heavy-duty components ensure Verado outboards can stand up to the most demanding marine environments. |
EfficiencyVerado outboards deliver superior mpg across every rpm thanks to a host of efficiency-enhancing features that optimize fuel economy. |

When you think about it, buying a boat is a little bit like getting married. After all, this is the commitment of a lifetime, and you want to feel confident you’re making the right decision! Fortunately, there are plenty of fish in the sea, and plenty of boats and pontoons to choose from here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service. The following tips can help you narrow down the options and find your perfect match!
What kinds of activities are you interested in? This should be your guiding question when choosing a boat. If catching fish is on the agenda, you should seek out a fishing boat, with features such as rod holders and livewells. If you want to pursue the excitement of watersports, you should look for a boat with a powerful engine that can reach high speeds. Meanwhile, if you are looking to host parties on the water, a spacious luxury boat will serve you best.
That being said, there’s no need to limit yourself. There are some boats that can cover all your bases! Pontoon boats, for example, are incredibly versatile. We are passionate about pontoon boats here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service, and we recommend them to our customers who want to get a little bit of everything out of their boating experience.
Of course, you can’t talk about buying a boat without discussing all the costs involved! The upfront cost of purchasing a boat can be pretty steep, but the long-term costs are even more important to consider. When budgeting for a boat, remember to account for all the expenses that are going to add up over time – such as fuel, maintenance, and insurance.
Generally speaking, it’s a good idea to set aside at least 10% of your boat’s total value each year for routine maintenance, and another 5% for any unexpected repairs. Meanwhile, you can expect to pay about 1.5% of the total value of your boat annually for insurance coverage.
If you have any questions about the boat buying process, you are always welcome to consult the sales team here at Howell’s Marine Sales & Service! We are always happy to assist. You can find us in Chatham, ON, near London.
