The 565 sterndrive combines the proven performance of big block power with the creature comforts of digital throttle and shift. A stroked, 8.7 liter cylinder block combined with high-performance cylinder heads, multiport fuel injection and twin electronic throttle bodies results in a whopping 565 horsepower that’s sure to blow your hair back. This power comes from 89 posted octane fuel; making this naturally aspirated powerhouse a natural for high performance vee bottoms and catamarans as well as sport cruisers.

The surfacing Sport Master gearcase offers heavy-duty durability for boats that travel in excess of 85 mph, with four-slot low water pick-ups and a crescent leading-edge design that reduces drag as much as possible to maximize efficiency and speed. The one-piece gearcase housing and skeg are precision CNC machined for perfect symmetry that results in improved handling at higher speeds.
DiscoverThe same super hydrodynamic design as the Sport Master, with a two-inch shorter length. This permits lowering the transom X dimension by two inches, and mounting the engine two inches lower in the boat, while maintaining an optimal propeller position. Gain engine hatch clearance and lower overall center of gravity for improved handling.

Digital Zero Effort Controls replace the lag and hesitation of traditional throttle and shift cables with digital precision, resulting in smooth shifting and instant throttle response. Ergonomic design features short-throw levers for effortless shifting and ultra-fast throttle response, and the robust stainless-steel levers offer unmatched durability in the offshore environment. Digital Zero Effort Controls can provide automatic throttle synchronization and shadow mode for up to six engines (where two levers operate six engines) and go hand in hand with engines equipped with Mercury’s exclusive Joystick Piloting for Outboards (JPO) technology.
