Powerful and Light

Suzuki Marine says its new DF300 proves that the most powerful four-stroke outboard in the world can also be lightweight, compact and streamlined, making it the ideal power choice for an increasingly popular class of saltwater heavy hitters

At 4lt, this new engine is said to offer the largest displacement of any V6 outboard ever made. The low-end grunt and torque to power heavily loaded offshore boats out of the hole is second to none.

With a target weight of 274kg for the 25-inch shaft model (or 279kg for the 30-inch shaft), Suzuki's 300hp four-stroke weighs about the same as other normally aspirated 250hp models.

Haines Suzuki Marine general manager Greg Haines said: "With the advent of these large displacement 300hp four-stroke outboards, many boat builders are now designing their boats to suit these fuel efficient engines."

Additional features include push-button starting, new cowling latches, and front and rear freshwater flushing ports.
