The motor you choose when you first purchase your new boat or the motor you choose for a repower down the road can be found right at Defender.com. Keep in mind the weight of the motor and the max horsepower recommended by your boat's manufacturer. Also note that remote outboards can be purchased right here but must be installed by a factory representative. Defender makes the arrangements simple, by e-mailing [email protected]. Note: Honda allows 30 HP and below remote outboards to be installed by the customer, but are available thru store pickup only.
Defender offers several motor manufacturers and the option to go electric as opposed to gas. We even stock Evinrude's Rescue Pro Pump Jet line, ideal for shallow water applications or anywhere swimmers are prevalent.
