New for 1999, the Blue Water EFI Series features brand new custom decals to showcase the Mercury saltwater product line. But these engines offer much more than just a pretty face. They're equipped with high-output alternators for best-in-class charging, and also boast a corrosion protection system that's second to none.

Mercury's industry-leading XK-360 aluminum alloy, combined with an extensive multi-step cleaning and painting process, provides a showroom-like appearance that will last through the years. Sprinkle in a healthy dose of stainless steel componentry, and you have the formula for the industry's only 3-year limited corrosion failure guarantee.

And to top it all off, Mercury Blue Water EFI models offer quick, turnkey starts, smooth idle and superb running quality at any rpm, in any weather conditions, no matter how far offshore you may be.
