SmartCraft® The Power to Do More

SmartCraft® is a full suite of digital technologies, fully integrated and totally coordinated. Gauges, sensors, vessel systems, computer-controlled features – one total package, one high level of control. Make your boating experience easier, safer and a lot more enjoyable.

Digital Throttle & Shift

Available Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS) controls deliver smooth, quiet shifting and instant throttle response, with zero hesitation. With integrated SmartCraft technologies and an intuitive user interface, DTS puts you in complete command of your adventures.

DTS controls are available for Mercury 175-300hp outboards. They’re standard on all Verado® outboards and the 350 and 500hp SeaPro™ outboards.

VesselView Mobile

VesselView Mobile® allows you to use a mobile device to connect wirelessly with your Mercury outboard, providing quick, convenient access to your own custom gauges, maintenance logs and performance data, like engine hours and fuel tracking.

VesselView Mobile is compatible with all current SmartCraft-capable Mercury outboards (2004 and newer, 40hp and above; 2022 and newer, 25hp and above).

Active Trim

Active Trim makes boating easier and more enjoyable by automatically trimming your outboard. It simplifies boat operation while improving engine performance and decreasing fuel costs.

Active Trim is compatible with all current SmartCraft-capable Mercury outboards (2004 and newer, 40hp and above; 2022 and newer, 25hp and above).

JPO for Single-Engine Pontoons

Joystick Piloting for Outboards (JPO) for Single-Engine Pontoons makes it easier than ever to maneuver large pontoon boats in close quarters. Integrated bow and stern thrusters, positioned under the deck, deploy and stow as needed. Once deployed, they work in tandem with the outboard to provide a level of control once reserved for multi-engine vessels.

JPO for Single-Engine Pontoons is available on Mercury 175-600hp outboards with DTS controls.
