Eleven new models hit the water in 2004.
At Johnson®, we've had more than 80 years to define what we are. And what we're not. Since we first took to the water in 1912, we've powered countless boats for a myriad of purposes. Fishing and hunting. Working and relaxing. We know what matter in an outboards. Like smooth, consistent starts. Reliable performance, day in and day out, year after year, fair weather or foul, tropical heat or arctic cold. No expectations No excuses.
Being part of the Bombardier family means adopting the kinds of standards that make quality a given. In our new state-of-the-art production facility in Southeastern Wisconsin, we test every part and every system - every Johnson outboard, from gears to pistons. Then we retest (some systems, in fact, get tested three times).
The result is a "never-say-die" attitude throughout our entire line of outboards. And in 2004, the line is broader than ever. The big news is the expanded line of Johnson four-strokes, with five new horsepowers and 11 new models in all, including the big 200 and 225 V6s with digital sequential electronic fuel injection and multi-stage induction for added low-end torque. And, with our smart compact design, these engines are smooth, they're quiet, and they're taking that legendary Johnson dependability to a whole new level.
Speaking of legendary, you've got plenty of tough, dependable Johnson two-stokes to choose from, too. So no matter what kind of boating you're into - fresh or salt, four-stroke or two-stroke - there's a Johnson engine that'll do the job. And then some. After all, we're talking about an outboard that's been at it for generations.
Loyalty. Guts. Determination. That's what Johnson is all about.
Even the guts of a Johnson outboard have guts.
True, fisherman tend to be some tough guys. But there's another tough customer using Johnson: the United States Military. They choose us for one simple reason: Johnson outboards stand up to more action than any other outboard. They need an outboard they can drop out of helicopters. An outboard they can launch out of submarines. An outboard that won't let them down when there's more on the line than a big fish.
You see, tough comes naturally to an outboard that faces one heck of a nasty fight before it even leaves the factory. Bombardier sees to it that every Johnson outboard goes through the same torturous testing as the other Bombardier brands: Bombardier ATV, Ski-Doo snowmobiles, and Learjet, to name a few. After all, it takes tough, precision parts - like our precision balanced crankshafts - to create an outboard that's up to any challenge.
Whether it's a platoon of soldiers or an army of fishermen, they look to Johnson for the high-water mark in outboard reliability. And since 1912, we've answered the call.
Where ever you find fish, you'll find Johnson parts and service.
You plan your fishing trips far in advance. Johnson help ensure that you actually get to fish when you get there. Even if you're far from home, with thousands of qualified Johnson parts and service locations in North America, you won't ever be far from certified Johnson service and parts. In fact, no matter where in America your travels take you, it's usually just a matter of miles to find Johnson service. It's just one of many ways that Johnson delivers one of the most important benefits of all: peace of mind.
Rugged New techonology for a better enviroment.
Johnson outboards' march toward four-stroke perfection continues. Eleven new models - The powerful 225 and 200 HP V6s and tough new 30 and 25. All backed by our three-year non-delclining limited warranty, providing the peace of mind that comes aling with longer life and added durability. They're quiter, smoother, and 100 percent compliant with the toughest federal standards for emissions. And 40-225 HP Johnson four-strokes come with Sequential Multi-Port Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) - out method of getting the fuel charge into thte cylinder at the precise moment - so they accelerate faster and run smoother than a four-stroke has a right to.
It's that combination of durable and clean that makes Johnson four-strokes the outboard of choice for all kinds of on-the-water activities: fishing, hunting, lounging, cruising, exploring, and just hanging out. Because no matter where the water takes you, you'll always crave a smooth, quiet, smoke-free engine that knows exactly what it takes to be a world-class performer.
First in dependability since 1921.
At Johnson, we've been fishing for 80 years and counting. That's alot of sunsets. A lot of sunsets. And a lot of tough guys chasing tough fish a long way from shore.
With Johnson two-stroke outboards, you get an engine that thinks fish. And it takes you to them faster, with torque boosting PowerPath induction. Having a great power-to-weight ratio doesn't hurt either. Because our two-stroke outboards produce a power stroke every revolution of the crankshaft, you get maximum horsepower in a compact, lightweight package. No valves, no springs, no camshafts, no timing belts. Just pure power and acceleration that will take you fishing year after year in conditions ranging from heavenly to hellish and everywhere in between.
The package is rounded out with classic Johnson toughness in the form of the most complete corrosion protection package in the business. We build them to survive for years on end, in virtually any kind of environment. Kind of like the people who run them.
Four-Stroke
225hp, 200hp, 140hp, 115hp, 90hp
Meet the new top of the Johnson four-stroke. An outboard capable of taking off when it's go time. An outboard that keeps quiet while you watch the sunset. And, this year, with our big new 225 and 200 V6s, an outboard that stratifies the biggest appetite for power.
These Johnson four-strokes are as strong as they are smooth, with dual overhead cams and four valves per cylinder for impressive power and top-end speed, and a 54-amp alternator to power all your electronics, even at trolling speeds. You also get multi-stage induction for enhanced performance (225 only) and CARB 3 star compliance (40-225 HP). Finally, you'll get the lightest, most compact outboard in its class (200-225 HP).
And then there's Johnson's Sequential Multi-Port Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI), so even if Monday doesn't start so well, you know your Johnson outboard will.
70hp, 60hp, 50hp, 40hp
They're cleaner and compliant with the toughest emissions regulations. They're powerful, quiet and unbelievably smooth. You could say these Johnson four-strokes were designed with a little bit of everything in mind. The kids. The weekends. And, of course, all the fish in the sea.
That kind of versatility comes from a host of features that make Johnson four-strokes the best-in-class. Four- cylinders, in-line, single overhead cam power plant for smooth power on the 60 and 70 HP models; digital sequential multi-port fuel injection for excellent throttle response and fuel economy; the Johnson pulse-tuned manifold for truly inspired acceleration; sold state ignition for sure starts; and power tilt and trim for greater performance and control.
The 40 and 50 HP have the same list of outstanding features but use a powerful 3-cylinder, in-line, dual overhead cam power plant.
And meet the newest additions to the family, the 25 and 30 HP Johnson four-strokes. With maximum power, performance, and reliability, they are designed to meet the toughest EPA standards. You won't find that combination of technology and features anywhere else in the class.
15hp, 9.9hp, 8hp, 6hp, 4hp
In reality, there are two things about these Johnson four-strokes you might call small: sound and fuel consumption. Because when it comes to punch, super-quick starts and throttle response, fuel economy, and that legendary Johnson toughness, these outboards are huge.
Extra displacement translates into extra power. A pulse-tuned manifold provides excellent acceleration, and an insulated cowling offers the type of smooth, quiet operation that'll help you keep your spots secret for years.
Meanwhile, our two-cylinder in-line single overhead cam power plant delivers just the right combination of power and punch.
Other features in this class include a single carburator; manual or electric start (15 and 9.9); tiller with Twist-Grip Throttle. And Johnson's 9.9 HP four-stroke kicker, also available in Evinrude blue and Johnson white, complements your entire package.
Two-Stroke
175hp, 150hp
Maximum power, amazing durability, and an impressive list of features. This is the engine for the fisherman who wants to truly be ready for all conditions.
It starts with corrosion protection. And we've been on the water long enough to know that you take nothing for granted. Which is why we cover it all. Smart details like sacrificial anodes, stainless steel parts (we use more stainless steel than our competitors), DeepGuard™ corrosion protection, and electro-deposition paint keep your Johnson outboard tough enough to deliver a stiff forearm to whatever it encounters.
And then there's power. Boy, is there power. These Johnson engines blow the competition out of the water with a 60 degree V-6 power plant, exclusive PowerPath™ fuel Induction for quick acceleration and exhilaration speed, and the S.L.O.W.™ (Speed Limiting Overheat Warning) system to keep communication between you and your outboard clean and simple, always putting safety first.
115hp, 90hp
When it comes to the type of reliability you could only refer to as "loyalty," and the kind of value that's attracted people to Johnson for more than 80 years, you could say the Johnson 115 and 90 HP outboards have got it all figured out. These outboards are rich with top-end features, like FasTrak™ power trim and tilt, Johnson's automatic pressure/temperature regulated cooling system, and a two-year non-declining limited warranty, the best in the industry on two-stroke carbureted engines.
A powerful 60 degree V-4 power plant gives great acceleration and top-end speed. OIS 2000™ optical ignition system for quick, won't-let-you-down starts. And Johnson's Uni-Forged™ crankshaft and pattern matched gears for maximum durability and long lasting performance man you won't have to keep the fish waiting.
50hp, 40hp, 30hp, 25hp
Simply put, these Johnson engines sport features usually found on outboards, with twice their horsepower ratings.
Our hard charging two-cycle engines deliver anazing power-to-weight ratios and give these Johnson outboards amazing power, even under load. Top mount starting provides for easy, smooth pulls. Pattern matched gears for long engine life. Our exclusive Uni-Forged™ crankshaft helps keep these motors fishing longer after other outboards (and you) feel like hanging it up. Toss in the S.L.O.W.™ warning system, MagFlash™ CD ignition, tuned exhaust, and power tilt - a host of features let you stay focused on fish - and you've got a class of outboards that just can't take a hint when it comes to quitting.
15hp, 9.9hp, 8hp, 6hp, 3.5hp
The boater looking for a marriage of power and portability, quick acceleration and low maintenance will find his fix with this class of Johnson two-stroke outboards.
A whole even greater than the sum of some pretty impressive parts is what makes these Johnson outboards such a pleasure to own. A center mount tiller arm is easy to grasp and adds control and maneuverability. Two-stoke design means a power stroke every revolution for quicker acceleration and top-end speed. Shallow water navigation is easy with Johnson's shallow water drive feature.
All of this backed by a two-year non-declining limited warranty and a dealer network strong enough to bear the Johnson name.
