The Mercury 60ELPT 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. Equipped with remote mechanical steering for precise control, 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 60ELPT Command Thrust is ideal for demanding, worry-free boating.

4 reviews for Mercury 60hp CTO 20″ Shaft | 60ELPT
+ FREE GIFT
The 60ELPT CT is unbeatable on my 22-foot pontoon—the Command Thrust gearcase with its deeper prop swing gets us planing fast even overloaded with 10 people. EFI electric start fires right up, no battery needed, and it sips fuel at about 8 mpg cruising. Hits 26 mph loaded, super quiet inline-4. Power trim makes ramps easy. After 40 hours, flawless—Mercury’s thrust tech handles heavy boats like a champ!
Upgraded to the 60ELPT for my aluminum bass rig, and the CT gearcase delivers massive low-end torque for quick acceleration with gear. EFI starts instantly in cold starts, fuel efficiency beats my old 50hp by 20%. Pushes 30 mph solo on the 20″ shaft, whisper-quiet for trolling. At 269 lbs, it’s sturdy but power trim helps. Reliable and smooth—best for loaded fishing trips!
Trolling king with the Command Thrust 60ELPT—EFI ensures no-stall starts, and the beefy gearcase holds low speeds precisely for hours on one tank. Inline-4 torque matches pricier 70hp models, hitting 27 mph clean. Ultra-quiet for hearing bites, fuel sipping in wind. 20″ shaft perfect for bays. Zero issues—Mercury’s CT design is built for serious anglers!
Great on my tiller multi-species boat—the 60ELPT CT’s gearcase ratio shines for heavy loads, EFI tunes perfectly for 9 mpg. Strong thrust planes my 19-footer fast, tops 28 mph with two. Quiet 4-stroke run all day. Minor con: weight at 269 lbs is noticeable for solo handling, but power trim compensates. Overall, efficient and powerful upgrade.
