2020 Mercury Racing 300R V8 — Only 50 Hours, SportMaster

Condition report

Used 2020 Mercury Racing 300R with just 50 hours — the lowest-hour Racing motor in this catalogue. The photo set follows one motor through crating: upright assembled views with the black Racing 300 cowling, the removed top cowling with its red-R 300R badge, the motor lying horizontal with the cowling off during packing, and close-ups of the silver SportMaster lower unit. No propeller is fitted in the photos and none is claimed — the prop shaft is shown exposed so you can see exactly what ships. Every Apex Marine engine is compression tested and supplied with warranty.

Overview

Fifty hours is delivery mileage on a Mercury Racing V8. This 2020 300R pairs the Racing 300-horsepower V8 with the silver SportMaster gearcase — the low-water-pickup lower unit built for elevated engine heights and fast hulls — and it has barely begun its service life.

Shopping the pair? Our 2021 Mercury Racing 300R (385 hours) offers the same platform in the heavy-duty tie-bar configuration for less; this 2020 motor is the one to buy when hours matter most. It is photographed on its shipping pallet, crated and ready for insured freight.

What’s included

• Mercury Racing 300R V8 outboard motor (actual unit photographed)
• SportMaster gearcase (silver, photographed)
• Top cowling (shown removed during crating)
• Propeller not included — prop shaft shown exposed in photos

Ideal for

Performance centre consoles, sport cats and bass-boat repowers that need a SportMaster lower unit and want near-new hours without the new Racing-motor price.

Compatibility notes

• Confirm your boat’s capacity plate: never exceed the maximum rated horsepower.
• Match the 25-inch 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.
