The 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.

The exclusive top cowl service door simplifies routine maintenance, letting you check or add engine oil without removing the top cowl. An hour-based maintenance schedule decal is located under the cowl, providing a quick overview of routine maintenance.

When needed, the idle charge battery management system works for you by monitoring battery voltage and adjusting engine rpm at idle to boost alternator output.

Featuring a large muffler and a vibration-dampening cowl design, Mercury V8 fourstroke outboards deliver an exceptionally smooth, quiet ride at any speed.

A powerful alternator delivers 85 amps of charging power at wide-open throttle – perfect for keeping onboard electronics running long into the fun.

The rugged Advanced MidSection (AMS) mounting system cradles the powerhead to isolate vibration, while expert tuning minimises engine noise and optimises the sound quality for a more enjoyable boating experience.

The industry’s most advanced joystick piloting system makes manoeuvring in tight spaces as simple as nudging the joystick in whichever direction you want the boat to go. The SmartCraft system takes it from there, providing unparalleled low-speed control for easy, confident docking.

Digital 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.)

The Adaptive Speed Control (ASC) 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.
