Condition report

Used 2009 Mercury 75 Optimax with only 194 hours. Recently serviced with brand-new trim ram seals. 130 PSI compression on all cylinders; starts instantly and runs perfectly per the seller's checkout. Stainless propeller, gauges, control box, and cables included. Serial plate photographed for verification.

Overview

Mercury's Optimax was the two-stroke that changed minds: direct fuel injection (DFI) firing fuel straight into the combustion chamber for more power on less fuel, less smoke than old-school 2-strokes, and throttle response that jumps.

This 2009 75HP Optimax (serial 1B747590, model 75ELPTO) shows only 194 original hours and backs it up with numbers: 130 PSI compression on all cylinders, strong and even. It's been recently serviced with brand-new trim ram seals, and comes as a complete package — stainless steel propeller, gauges, control box, and control cables. Photographed as offered, including the serial plate.

What’s included

  • Stainless steel propeller
  • Gauges
  • Control box
  • Control cables

Ideal for

Bay boats, skiffs, and pontoons rated for 75 HP — buyers who want 2-stroke punch with modern fuel efficiency.

Compatibility notes

  • Confirm your boat’s capacity plate: never exceed the maximum rated horsepower.
  • Match shaft length to your transom height so the anti-ventilation plate runs at the correct depth.
  • Confirm your transom and hull can support the engine’s weight.
  • Controls, cables, gauges, steering components, and propellers are not included unless the listing states otherwise — we verify rigging compatibility with your boat before you buy.
