As an avid boating enthusiast, I am always keen to spot the latest in marine technology. I’m excited to share my thoughts on the 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor 12250024A 225XXL FourStroke Pearl Fusion White 4.8" 1.85, offered by Mercury Outboard Motors. Renowned for delivering trustworthy and advanced marine hardware, this particular motor is a testament to Mercury's unwavering commitment to quality.
This 2023 edition model is no ordinary unit, boasting a potent 225HP that comfortably slots it into the 225-350 horsepower category. It's powered by an efficiently designed V6 (3.4L displacement) engine configuration. The Dual Overhead Cam (DOHC) and 24-valves adds to the machine's muscle, promising an exhilarating ride with full throttle RPM between 5200-6000.
Boaters will appreciate the engine's mid-section design and the performance-tuned long-runner intake manifold for optimal air induction. It also utilizes an advanced Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) system that's computer-controlled with advanced range optimization. This ensures not just a stimulating ride but an efficient one too.
The engine protection operator warning system is bolstered by the SmartCraft Engine Guardian, another hint that user safety and machine protection are at the core of Mercury's design principles. Moreover, the motor is equipped with SmartCraft digital technology that lays out pertinent information for ease of control and management.
The smooth start offered by its electric start mechanism, complemented by SmartStart Protection, is a joy to behold. Versatile control options, including remote mechanical or digital throttle and shift (DTS), make operating this engine an effortless experience. Hydraulic steering is standard, but options for joystick piloting for outboards and power steering are also available – a testimony to Mercury's commitment to offering a tailored experience for boaters.
The Mercury 12250024A model also boasts a dry weight of 475 lbs, which makes handling a breeze without compromising on performance. And while we're on performance, this motor offers a gearcase ratio of 1.85:1 and a gear shift of F-N-R. The power trim and tilt system, along with an integrated wet sump lubrication system, further enhance its performance capabilities.
Boating enthusiasts mindful of the environment will be pleased to know that this outboard motor comes with a commendable CARB star rating of 3. The recommended fuel is Unleaded Regular 87 Octane Minimum (R+M/2) or 90 RON 10% Ethanol Maximum, and the recommended oil is NMMA Certified FCW SAE 10W-30.
This 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor model does not just impress under the hood. It's visually stunning too, decked out in a classic Pearl White Fusion color that adds an extra touch of elegance to your boating experience.

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
