The Mercury 60ELHPT Command Thrust is a robust four-stroke outboard motor optimized for heavy loads and versatile use on small to medium boats such as aluminum fishing boats, pontoons, inflatables, and small cruisers up to 18-20 feet. Featuring a 20-inch long shaft and a specialized Command Thrust gearcase for better propulsion, it weighs 257 lbs, providing ample torque in its 60 HP class. The 1000cc (61.0 cubic inch) inline four-cylinder engine with Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) and 8-valve SOHC design delivers exceptional low-end torque for quick planing and a full throttle range of 5500-6000 RPM. Its multi-function tiller handle offers precise control, with electric start for effortless ignition and power trim & tilt for easy adjustments. The motor features a 3.2-gallon external fuel tank, low-vibration mounts for smooth operation, and an 18-amp alternator to support electronics. Built for durability in freshwater and saltwater, it uses low-copper aluminum alloys, stainless steel components, and a multi-layered priming and painting process for superior corrosion resistance. With reliable starting, instant throttle response, and fuel efficiency, the 60ELHPT Command Thrust is ideal for demanding, worry-free boating.

4 reviews for Mercury 60hp CTO 20″ Shaft | 60ELHPT
+ FREE GIFT
This Mercury 60 CTO is unbeatable for trolling on my multi-species rig. Starts with one push, no priming, and the 995cc engine delivers precise low-end power for heavy rod setups—trolled 14 hours on one tank. The gearcase upgrade boosts thrust in wind, pushing 27 mph clean. Whisper-quiet 4-stroke lets me hear the bites. Thousands of hours potential—5 stars for durability!
Upgraded to this 60hp CTO for my aluminum bass boat, and it’s exceeded expectations. The larger gearcase swings big props for quick planing with gear, electric start via EFI is foolproof, and fuel efficiency is stellar—about 9 mpg cruising. Pushes 30 mph solo, super quiet for stealthy casts. Matches 70hp performance at a better price. Zero vibes after 40 hours—top pick!
The 60ELHPT Command Thrust is a game-changer on my 22-foot pontoon—257 lbs with power tilt is sturdy yet manageable, and the 20″ shaft with CT gearcase powers through waves effortlessly. EFI starts instantly every time, no battery hassle, even on dewy mornings. Trolled for hours on under 5 gallons, hitting 26 mph loaded with eight aboard. Smooth, quiet inline-4—Mercury’s thrust tech makes heavy boats feel light!
Solid workhorse on my tiller-steered jon boat—the 60ELHPT’s 20″ shaft and Command Thrust handle chop like a champ, EFI optimizes fuel for long runs at 8 mpg. Strong torque lifts my 20-footer loaded fast, hits 28 mph with two. Power trim saves effort at ramps. Minor con: tiller handle could be more adjustable for taller folks, but the quiet run and reliability shine.
