Marine industry brands Suzuki, Raymarine and Simrad are offering spring deals, according to releases from the companies.

Suzuki is offering cash incentives from $100 to $300 on new fuel-injected four-stroke outboards from 40 to 150 hp. From now through June 30, customers who purchase a qualifying motor will receive a cash rebate, which they can apply toward the purchase price, accessories or Suzuki’s 3-Year Extended Protection Plan — or, if they choose, they can take a check, according to Suzuki.

For boaters looking to upgrade their electronics, Raymarine’s Upgrade and Trade Sales Event offers a rebate on individual items with a purchase from one of the following product lines: A-Series (save up to $50); C-Series Classic (up to $200); E-Series (up to $250); autopilots, satTV and radar (up to $200); and instruments (up to $75). Additional bonus rebates are also available on certain eligible items, according to the company.

Consumers trading in old electronics will also receive a $50 trade-in rebate on any brand, make or model of radar display, chartplotter display, fishfinder display or multifunction display, Raymarine reported.

Finally, Simrad-Yachting has announced that customers who buy a 10-, 15- or 19-inch GB40 Glass Bridge System model between now and June 30 will receive a free Sirius WX receiver. In conjunction with the promotion, a GB40 Version 5.7.25 software update is now available.

“We are thrilled to kick-off this special offer for our valued customers as a complement to our GB40 software update and availability of Sirius satellite weather capabilities,” said Paul Comyns, director of marketing for Simrad.
