Yes, you are exactly right. I thought they were replacing the 3 cylinder.

Here is the official press release stating 20lbs lighter than the next lightest 4-stroke (assuming 115): http://www.mercurymarine.com/news-and...oke-outbo/ It is annoying when manufacturers don't update their website with released products. I still don't think ICON gauges can be found on the Evinrude website, only I-command years after release. Edited by jharrell on 06/29/14 - 12:49 PM

In it, you will find the link to the ICON gauges page. I agree with Joe, Does anybody actually read these pages before they post? I would add, does anybody actually read anything before they post?
