## Overview

A rental operator expanding its fleet needed matched outboard motors for two boat sizes, delivered before the summer season, with rigging and a supply of propellers and consumables.

## Challenge

Rental use is hard on outboards — frequent starts, inexperienced operators, and long daily hours — so the customer wanted proven four-stroke models with simple maintenance and a spare-parts stock to keep boats earning through the season.

## Solution

| Item | Model | Qty |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Outboard motor | Suzuki DF90A 4-stroke | 8 |
| Outboard motor | Suzuki DF9.9BT EFI 4-stroke (tender and small boats) | 6 |
| Rigging | Control boxes, cables, gauges, fuel systems | 14 sets |
| Spares | Propellers, impellers, filters, anodes, gear oil | 1 lot |

## Scope of supply

Pre-season delivery planning, pre-delivery inspection, crated packing, sea freight to Rijeka, and a seasonal maintenance checklist.

## Outcome

The fleet was rigged and in service for the start of the season. A repeat order for the following year included two larger boats with DF225 outboards.
