Suzuki has unveiled a new lower unit that permits either right or left rotation for its new DF300AP outboard. To create Selective Rotation, Suzuki strengthened the lower-unit forward and reverse gearing, and redesigned its shape. Dealers can set the rotation when initializing the engine’s electronic shift control; they no longer must order and stock two types of outboards. The DF300AP also features a two-way water inlet to increase water flow. It’s available in 25- and 30-inch shaft models, and with a new trolling mode. Cost was unavailable at press time.
