As boating enthusiasts, we keep our eyes peeled for the latest advancements and top-performing outboard motors in the market. Today, our focus is on one such excellent offering: the 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor 1A20302LK 20E FourStroke. Replicating the legacy of the reliable Mercury Outboard Motors, this motor is situated nicely in the 2 - 90 Horsepower category.
The model comes with a commendable power capacity of 20 HP which provides a remarkable output for this category. Tucked neatly within an inline 2-cylinder engine block, this machine holds a significant displacement of 20.3 CID or 333 CC. Your heart will race when it reaches its full-throttle RPM, marking a staggering range between 5700 and 6200 RPM.
Engineered to perfection, the fuel induction system designed with 2 valves per cylinder and a single overhead cam (SOHC), enhances its efficiency. The enhanced CDI with electronic spark advance and Electronic Fuel Injection System allows for optimal fuel consumption, and we recommend using 87 octane fuel with up to 10% ethanol for maximum performance.
The Mercury Outboard Motor 2023 takes care of its users with its detailed engine protection operator warning system. This setup provides warnings for various potentially harmful conditions such as low oil pressure, low water pressure, over-revving, overheating and sensor failure. Therefore, rest easy knowing you're well-guarded during your boating adventures.
Mercury has kept true to its classic aesthetic with the Phantom Black color scheme of the outboard motor. Stealthy yet sophisticated, this motor carries a lightweight design with its dry weight, at the lightest model, just tipping the scales at 99 lbs or 45 kg. Furthermore, the gearcase with a ratio of 2.15:1 ensures smooth and efficient transmission of power.
The model also boasts both electric and manual starting options, dealing an ace card in terms of flexibility. In terms of steering, Mercury provides the ability for remote and tiller operations. Alongside a thoroughly praised 'through prop' exhaust system, the design includes six different trim positions and an optional remote fuel tank.
Equipped with a convenient shallow water drive feature, this outboard motor can also navigate through shallow water zones, and can even trim to a range of 16 degrees, maximizing its adaptability.
In terms of both efficiency and performance, the 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor 1A20302LK 20E FourStroke establishes its place among the top-tier 2 - 90 horsepower category. If you're on the hunt for a motor that delivers both performance and comfort, it's an outboard motor that you should seriously consider for your next boating adventure.

When our family wanted to purchase our first boat we tried to find information for research. However the only information available at that time was sales brochures. All of the product information originated from the manufactures. The only price we could find was the retail price listings or MSRP (Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price). Magazines featured articles, and had really great photo layouts, it only offered product description and the (MSRP) retail price.
We went to the dealership where the sales guy held all the cards. The best thing he had going for him was our lack of information. We tried to wrangle on price without any real success. We bought the boat, but we paid too much. After that experience we felt there had to be a better way.
So we started this website because we did not want anyone else to feel disadvantaged like our family did that day. We discussed what we would like to see. We found experts in their fields and started asking questions. We then put together a team to research products and most importantly the dealer price. We started with boats and realized that there was a great need for information on many kinds of large purchase recreational vehicles and products.
Look when you visit a dealership for a boat, motorcycle or camper, if you have not done your research your negotiation for that item will start with the Manufactures Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The highest price you could pay. The sales person will try to see what you know and size you up. If you do not have product knowledge including what the cost was to the dealer – you are going to pay too much.
See Dealer Cost™ offers product information that is in-depth and understandable. You can build your ideal product on line and see what it cost before you walk into a dealership. See Dealer Cost™ gives you the product options and most importantly the cost without the pressure of someone trying to talk you into something.
Knowledge is power.
After you find the product you want on See Dealer Cost™ and configure the options. You can save it to view or reference later. You can also print out what you put together (with the price). In turn you can use this information to negotiate your best deal.
What if the item is used? We are making available all the information we have gathered over the years so you can research to see the original cost. Even on used items you can use our site to negotiate your best deal.
Our passion here at See Dealer Cost™ is to give people power and knowledge. We were at a disadvantage once and we did not like the feeling.
By the way this great idea we had to build a website with this information. We had to fight to be able to bring this information to you. See Dealer Cost™ was supposed to be a one hit wonder. The manufactures magazines that they send to dealers said we would be dead in no time. They pounded their fists on their desks and said the consumer did not want or need this information. They said we would put them out of business. We were sued multiple times by manufacturers for this information. We are still here.
Why would they not want you to be able to see and use this information? They were afraid that you the consumer would be the true winner.
As it turns out – this information has not put anyone out of business. A consumer who is knowledgeable is confident buyer.
So we continue on with our team of experienced and expert people. We constantly update product lines and most importantly the cost so you have information to make your best deal.
We are proud of the team and proud to be able to assist you in your recreational purchase. We do not sell any of the items listed – we just gather the information.
The products include thousands of boats, motors, campers, motorcycles and more. We are constantly working to expand the information we present for you.
We all have families. We hope your buying experience is a better one than our family’s first purchase. Use this website to be a knowledgeable more confident buyer.
We hope we are a valuable resource for you. Enjoy your purchase.
Thanks,
See Dealer Cost™ Team Members
