Mercury 250XL SeaPro Commercial

Rated for commercial applications only, this used Mercury 250XL SeaPro shares the 279 CID, 4.6-liter V-8 architecture found in Mercury's recreational 250s but runs a lower full-throttle band of 4800-5600 RPM on its own 25-inch shaft. Commercial-only designation Mercury markets the SeaPro line for commercial fishing, workboat, and law-enforcement use, and this listing is designated for commercial applications only; confirm your intended use fits before ordering. Specification Mercury also notes that a 1.75:1 gearcase ratio applies; the alternator is rated 85-amp, 1071 watt, with idle charge. The powerhead weighs 527 lbs dry. Max trim is 20 degrees and max tilt is 73 degrees. Steering can be hydraulic, power, or Mercury's Big Tiller, all optional rather than standard. Common questions Q: Is this suitable for recreational boating? The listing designates it for commercial applications only, so confirm fit for your use first. Q: Is this new or used? Used; inspect condition directly rather than assuming recreational-grade cosmetics. Controls are remote mechanical and sold separately, with EFI and power trim and tilt fitted, and SmartCraft Engine Guardian for engine protection. Gearcase measures 5.44 inches. Buyers moving a SeaPro from commercial to private use, or the reverse, should confirm with us that the intended use still fits this listing's commercial-only designation before ordering. This is a used motor, so inspect it directly rather than relying on the specification sheet alone.
