Buy the Mercury 40 HP 40ELPT Jet Outboard Motor – Built for High Performance in Shallow Water

In shallow river crossings, fast streams, and backwater channels, traditional propeller-driven motors just won’t cut it. That’s where the Mercury 40 HP 40ELPT Jet Outboard Motor shines. Fitted with a jet drive system, electric start, and tiller control, this engine is perfect for fishermen, hunters, and outdoorsmen who demand more control and muscle in shallow water.

Need a replacement for your fishing boat or a rugged outboard for a jon flat-bottom boat? The Mercury 40ELPT Jet provides all the power and durability Mercury Marine is known for—and yep, we’ve got it in stock! Keep reading to learn why this shallow-water outboard motor is the one you’ve been looking for.


Why Buy the Mercury 40 HP 40ELPT Jet Outboard Motor?

1. Jet Drive to Master Shallow Water

Shallow water can ruin conventional outboards. The Mercury 40ELPT Jet, however, has jet propulsion technology that replaces the lower unit with a jet nozzle and impeller so you can cruise in shallow water as little as 4 inches deep without fear of grounding.

It’s ideal for:

  • Rocky-bottom rivers

  • Creeks and backwaters

  • Flooded timber and marshes

  • Hunting or rescue jet boat applications

2. Mercury’s Proven Four-Stroke Reliability

The 40ELPT Jet uses Mercury’s strong four-stroke, 3-cylinder engine with a reputation for reliability, fuel efficiency, and quietness. It has the ideal combination of power and quietness with low emissions—reliable and eco-friendly.

3. Easy Electric Start & Power Trim

No pull cord pull—this outboard features electric start for hassle-free starting every time. The power trim and tilt system incorporated in the engine allows tilting the angle of the engine at the press of a button, improving control and performance according to water depth and load.

How Jet Outboards Differ from Propeller Outboards

You might be wondering—why a jet outboard versus a traditional propeller model? Here are the main differences:

Jet Outboard Propeller Outboard
Can handle 4″ of water Needs at least 12″–18″ of clearance
No exposed moving parts Propeller and skeg vulnerable to damage
Ideal for rocky/marshy bottom situations Better suited to open water or very deep lakes
Less efficient to a certain degree More propulsion efficiency
Ideal for high-speed river use Ideal for slow cruising and big lakes
