Mercury Marine: Yesterday and Today
The success of Mercury Marine has not occurred by
chance. Since the company was founded in 1939, Mercury has consistently
emphasized quality, innovation and reliability. That pledge remains as
strong today as ever. Mercury Marine, a division of Brunswick Corporation of
Lake Forest, Ill, began as the Kiekhaefer Corporation of Cedarburg, Wis.,
when Carl Kiekhaefer and a small but dedicated staff of employees sought to
design and produce the best possible boat engine.
As each goal was accomplished, it was replaced by
more.That tradition has resulted in a literal embodiment of the Great
American Dream. From a modest and inauspicious start, Mercury has grown into
an industry leader recognized worldwide for its ability to foresee and
fulfill the needs of its consumers. Its product brands include Mercury and
Mariner outboards, Mercury MerCruiser sterndrives and inboards, Mercury
Racing products, Mercury Precision Parts and Accessories, Mercury and
Typhoon propellers and Mercury Jet Drives.
Mercury is the world's leading manufacturer of
marine propulsion systems. Since the very beginning, Mercury has set the
standards for the industry. When pending outboard emission standards
challenged the industry, mercury took the lead in redesigning its product to
reduce emissions and to not only meet, but also exceed the new standards.
The OptiMax outboard engine concept was created to deliver exceptional
performance from a two-stroke outboard with a completely new technology.
With an average of 45 percent better fuel economy and smooth, smokeless,
misfire-free operation, the OptiMax models were - and are - the benchmark
for new-technology two-stroke outboards.
