- Chrysler Marine (1966–1984): Chrysler produced its own line of outboard motors in a wide range of horsepower.
- Force Outboards (1984–1986): After Chrysler sold its outboard division to U.S. Marine (an affiliate of Bayliner), the motors were rebranded as Force Outboards.
- Mercury Marine’s Force (1987–1999): The Brunswick Corporation acquired U.S. Marine and its Force brand, and soon after, moved production to its Mercury Marine facilities.
- Engine range: Chrysler produced outboard motors in a wide range of horsepower, including 3.5 HP, 4 HP, 6 HP, 7 HP, 9.9 HP, 12.9 HP, 15 HP, 20 HP, 35 HP, 45 HP, 50 HP, 55 HP, 70 HP, 75 HP, 85 HP, 92 HP, 105 HP, 115 HP, 125 HP, and 140 HP models.
- Engine design: The engines were known for their distinctive styling. They were mostly two-stroke engines that used a variety of ignition systems, including some that were considered challenging to service.
- Reliability: Some models, such as the 85 HP outboard, were controversial, with some boat owners trusting them while others avoided them.
- Transition to Force: The outboard division of Chrysler was sold to U.S. Marine in 1984, effectively ending the Chrysler-branded era.
- Bayliner packages: Bayliner was the first major company to sell boat-and-motor packages, and Force outboards were the engine of choice for these rigs.
- Mercury influence: When Brunswick Corporation purchased U.S. Marine, Mercury Marine’s resources were integrated into the Force brand. This led to a “hybrid” era where older Chrysler and new Mercury parts were sometimes mixed.
- Horsepower range: Force Outboards were produced in a wide variety of horsepower ratings, including 4 HP, 5 HP, 9.9 HP, 15 HP, 25 HP, 35 HP, 40 HP, 50 HP, 70 HP, 75 HP, 85 HP, 90 HP, 125 HP, and 150 HP.
- Final years: Facing increased competition and evolving regulations, Brunswick discontinued the Force brand in 1999.
- Aftermarket suppliers: Brands like Sierra and CDI continue to produce many parts for these older engines, such as starters, carb kits, and gaskets.
- Limited availability: Parts for some older, early-production models can be more difficult to find.
