Mercury boat engines are definitely safe for the environment. Mercury is one of the elements on the Periodic Table that occurs naturally. As recommended for any chemicals, it would be wise to ensure the mercury is not leaking inappropriately from one's boat into the environment.

Mercury boat engines can potentially harm the environment. Mercury is a toxic substance that can be released into the water through fuel combustion and exhaust emissions. It can accumulate in aquatic life, leading to bioaccumulation and biomagnification in the food chain. To minimize environmental impact, it is important to follow proper maintenance and disposal practices for mercury boat engines and consider alternative options such as electric or lower-emission engines.

What kind of boat hull can hold the most weight?
A big one with lots of freeboard and either inboard engines or an outboard platform like the offshore center-console fishing boats have. How they calculate the safe capacity of a boat is simple: they put the boat in the water and add weight until water comes in to determine the displacement weight. Then they divide by five to reach the safe weight capacity. Therefore it stands to reason that the farther you can push the boat into the water before it sinks, the more safe weight it can carry.
Are jet engines safe?
