The Mercury FourStroke 80hp Jet outboard motor delivers dependable performance and go-anywhere versatility for boaters navigating shallow rivers, sandbars, and debris-filled waters. Built around a 2.1L inline-4 engine producing 80 horsepower, this jet-drive model swaps a traditional gearcase and propeller for a jet pump, allowing confident operation in skinny water where a standard lower unit simply can't go. At just 378 lbs, it's the lightest model available in its class, giving boaters strong power-to-weight performance without sacrificing durability or control.
Built with proven Mercury Marine engineering, the FourStroke 80hp Jet features a 35 amp/441 watt alternator with a water-cooled voltage regulator for reliable electrical output even during demanding use, plus full SmartCraft compatibility for seamless monitoring and diagnostics. Its rugged inline-4 design provides smooth, efficient operation while standing up to the rigors of shallow-water conditions. The Mercury FourStroke 80hp Jet stands out as the ideal choice for boaters who need reliable power, lightweight handling, and the freedom to run where conventional outboards can't follow.
