Hello my boating friends... I recently bought a BW 13' which came with a 2018 South American Mercury 40hp long shaft non-power trim.

A marina looked up the SN# and confirmed the motor is Mercury branded for South America but the parts fiche come up as yamaha parts.

I am trying to find a power trim bracket but I don't even know where to start here in the US. I am trying to figure out which US motors share the same design so I can search for a used bracket with power trim.

I found a guy with a merc 60hp 2 stroke selling the engine for parts but not sure whether the bracket and trim will fit. I have attached a pic of the 60 and a pic of the 40 (not on my boat).

Any help is appreciate it.

What is your engine serial number and might be just as important in your case here, 'The Engine Model Number ?

There should be a white tag type sticker on the transom assembly like indicated below.
Just confirming things here is all...
Yours is a 2 stroke? not 4 stroke?
How many Cylinders?

Alright cool, In this case the serial number works the best as it's findable to use as your engine parts catalog.



In some cases you can click on the parts and it may help give you a starting point type list of where that part/part number is used on other engine models which you could try doing in your searches for a confirmation stand point as you look at other used engines if desired.

For example clicking the # 1 power-trim assembly from here, https://www.perfprotech.com/mercury-marine-parts-catalog/power-trim/assembly/11841/260?model=4172
Will show you the other models it should fit listed on the left here, https://www.perfprotech.com/power-trim-8m0097054/product/888745

Your model number 1040312EL is in here plus a few others, https://bmpboats.ru/katalog/2_mercury/
