As any seasoned boat owner can attest to, the selection of the right outboard motor can make all the difference when it comes to the enjoyment and performance of your vessel. A powerful, reliable, and efficient motor can transform your boating experience, making every trip truly enjoyable. Understanding this, Mercury has brought to the market an impressively powerful and technologically advanced outboard motor that has swooped the boating industry off its feet - the 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor 1350V231C 350XL Verado Cold Fusion White 5.44" 1.75 HD.
This powerful beast, offering an impressive 300 HP with a V8 Engine type, has the capability to transform your boating experience. It boasts of an unprecedented level of power that is all packed into a sleek, Cold Fusion White body that is not just pleasing to look at but also promises outstanding performance on the water.
One feature that makes this model stand out is the Advanced MidSection (AMS) that works to enhance the overall smoothness of your ride, absorbing and nullifying vibrations. Furthermore, its performance-tuned long-runner intake manifold, coupled with an Effective Fuel Injection (EFI) Computer and Advanced Range Optimization system, work together to enhance the efficiency of fuel usage. This not only makes every ride smoother but also more economical.
The SmartCraft Engine Guardian - the engine protection operator warning system - stands as a noteworthy feature. It works seamlessly with the SmartCraft digital technology to protect the engine, making it ever-ready instantly, and provides a warning if something is off. Also, the convenience of the Electric Start with SmartStart Protection and the Digital Throttle & Shift (DTS) control system make operating this motor, a truly hassle-free task. Coupled with the Electro-hydraulic power steering and Joystick Piloting for Outboards, maneuverability is made incredibly easy, even for novice boaters.
Cooling is facilitated by a water-cooled system with a thermostat that not only contributes to engine protection but also aids in performance enhancement. The through-prop exhaust system further optimizes engine performance and ensures a quieter, smoother ride. The Power trim and tilt and the generous trim and tilt range maximize boat stability and control, making every ride an enjoyable one.
Despite crushing a ton of power, this model maintains a relatively light weight considering its class, giving it an added advantage in terms of fuel economy and handling. It isn't often that you find an outboard motor that finds the delicate balance between power and efficiency, making it a fine choice for adventurers and fishing enthusiasts alike.
The 2023 Mercury Outboard Motor 1350V231C 350XL Verado Cold Fusion White 5.44" 1.75 HD shows that Mercury is committed to not just providing a product that meets the mark but rather, exceeding expectations with every model they bring on the market.

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
