It has been specifically developed for high-end yachts and large boats with an AMS (Advanced Mid Section) gearbox and electro-hydraulic steering system.

Verado 350 XL AMS DTS V10 Series Features and Technology Advantages

Electro-hydraulic steering eliminates the need for mechanical cables — providing exceptional maneuverability precision and comfort. The AMS gearbox optimizes power transmission, increasing fuel efficiency. Active Trim automatic trim management comes standard.

• V10 (10-Cylinder) Engine (5700 cc): Electro-hydraulic steering eliminates the need for mechanical cables — providing exceptional maneuverability precision and comfort
• Extra-Long Shaft (572 mm (22.5")): Propeller operates at optimum depth with correct transom height
• Electro-Hydraulic Steering: No mechanical cables — precise maneuver control and low steering effort
• Electric Start: Instant activation with key or button — comfortable and quick starting
• Electric Trim and Tilt (Power Trim & Tilt): Adjust trim angle with a button while cruising — optimizes fuel efficiency; fully raise the engine with tilt
• Floating External Fuel System: Connection to a large-capacity external tank — range determined by user need

Extra-Long Shaft — Which Boat Type Is It Suitable For?

The extra-long shaft (572 mm (22.5")) ensures the propeller operates at the correct water depth on large fiberglass and aluminum boats with high freeboards. It is 64 mm longer than a standard long shaft (508 mm).

Technical Specifications

Maintenance and Longevity

4-stroke Mercury engines operate trouble-free for many years with regular oil changes and an end-of-season maintenance protocol. The impeller of the water-cooled system should be checked every 100 hours or every two seasons. In saltwater use, freshwater flushing is mandatory after each use.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main difference between the Verado series and standard FourStroke?

Verado offers an AMS (Advanced Mid Section) gearbox and electro-hydraulic steering system. Its design, which does not require mechanical cables, provides more precise maneuvering and lower maintenance. DTS digital throttle and shift simplify the synchronization of multiple engines.

How does the electro-hydraulic steering system work?

The electro-hydraulic system transmits steering movement via electronic signal to the hydraulic actuator. Since there is no mechanical cable friction, it provides much lower steering effort and higher precision. In multi-engine applications, the simultaneous turning of the engines is automatically coordinated.

What does the Active Trim system do?

Active Trim automatically optimizes the trim angle using GPS speed and acceleration data. It eliminates the need for manual trim adjustment during speed changes — continuously optimizing fuel consumption and cruising comfort.

Which boat and vessel brands are compatible with the Verado 350 XL AMS DTS V10?

Mercury outboards are compatible with many fiberglass, aluminum, and inflatable boat models thanks to their universal transom clamp or transom mounting system. The only criteria are your boat's 572 mm (22.5") transom height and the maximum engine power approved by the manufacturer. You can get compatibility confirmation from Clever Marin by sharing your boat model.
