what engines came on sea pro?

[edwardh1]

were they only one brand/ mainly one brand?

and did sea pro go out of business? I was told brunswick bought them- were they ever shipped with merc outboards?

We ran an '87 Sea Pro 18 cc made in the Carolinas with a 90 Merc. They started building them in FL around the mid 90's with both Merc and Evinrude Ralph Evinrude slept here..........

We just bought a 2001 170cc. The plate on the cc says Newburry, SC. Ours has a 90hp mercury saltwater series 2 stroke of the same year.

My 2004 SV1700CC came with a Yamaha 90. More than enough motor for me.

OP asked

Sea Pro was purchased by Brunswick in 2005 and they discontinued the Sea Pro line in 2008. My 1996 came with a 150 Merc, but they used other engines prior to 2005, Brunswick also owns Mercury OB engines so they were the preferred engine in new sales between 2005-2008.
