Yes. USA and Canadian built. BRP is a Canadian company. Of course components come from all around the world.

I dont believe it. When I take the cowl off of my evinrude 150 there is a sticker on the plastic cover of the OIS that clearly states "made in mexico"

Sorry. Just saw the components come from all around the world part. Kinda makes a fuzzy line between made in the USA and not

OMC before BRP made electronic components in Mexico. Most of the machined and cast parts are of US/Canadian origin.

Might be a big difference in "Made in USA" and "Assembled in USA" ... ;)

Yamaha used to build the Mariner series for Mercury years ago, and Mercury supplied the lower units for Honda a couple of years. Not to bust your bubble but Suzuki supplied the 4 strokes for Johnson/Evinrude.....

My Evinrude was made in Belgium according to the ID plate.

Some of the small modern ones are rebadged Tohatsus,, like Mercs and Mariners

There was a time when some were rebadged Suzukis
