Since boat engines are designed to run at constant RPMs and are put under intense loads, it is very important to properly run-in your motor for reliability and to ensure full life cycle is achieved. although It is a simple process not everyone has the time in there busy week/weekend to complete it for their outboard. We recommend that everyone with a new motor follow the run-in procedure that their manufacturer recommends.

our run-in consists of;

- 10 hours in a tank as per the mercury manual 
- Petrol and oil included
- Basic service after 10 hours included.

*any special requests from user will be considered
