Mercury Marine engines dominate Cannes Boat Show

METTAWA - Brunswick Corp. and its industry leading brands achieved another record showing at the 2022 Cannes Boat Show, one of the most important marine industry events in Europe.

Mercury Marine reported a record 65% outboard share on the water, representing a sizable increase from its previous record showing in 2021. Mercury's V-6, V-8 and V-12 outboard engines were prominently displayed throughout the six-day event on many U.S. and European models, including multiple models with dual 600-horsepower outboard engines, the company said.

Over the past few years, Mercury has recorded record outboard share at many of the industry's most influential shows globally, such as Cannes in France, Dubai, Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

"Mercury's continued market share growth has been well documented over the past few years and another record showing at Cannes is a testament to the power of the Mercury portfolio across Europe," said Brunswick CEO Dave Foulkes.

The 2022 Cannes Boat Show was held Sept. 6-11.

"Boat builders around the world continue to adopt Mercury's award-winning propulsion systems and that was clearly in evidence at Cannes," Foulkes said.
