Brunswick Corporation : Brunswick Facilities Worldwide Achieve Safety Recognition

LAKE FOREST, Ill., March 12, 2015 - Brunswick Corporation (NYSE: BC) announced
today the recipients of its safety award program for 2014.  The purpose of the
program is to encourage, recognize and reward employees and facilities that have
achieved outstanding safety and health performance through promoting and
practicing safety awareness, ultimately minimizing workplace incidents and
injuries.

All Brunswick manufacturing, engineering and distribution facilities worldwide
are eligible for such recognition. In 2014 for the first time a distribution
facility won a Chairman's Safety Award, the Company's highest honor in the
category, along with its first manufacturing facility outside of North America
to win the top honor.

For 2014, six facilities received the Chairman's Safety Award, and each will
direct a $10,000 donation to a local charity of its choice.  Meanwhile, 22
additional facilities were recognized with Distinguished Safety Awards for their
2014 safety performance.  In all, 37 facilities were cited by Brunswick for
achieving no lost-time incidents during 2014, though all did not qualify for
either the Chairman's Safety or Distinguished Safety awards, which include
additional criteria.

The Chairman's Safety Award is selected and presented by Brunswick senior
management to the most outstanding performers.  The Distinguished Safety Award
is achieved by meeting specific safety performance results, which include
incident rates and other Brunswick criteria.  The six facilities that have won
the prestigious Chairman's Safety Award include:
  * Edgewater, Fla., Boston Whaler,
  * Flagler Beach, Fla., Brunswick Recreational Boats Palm Coast,
  * Vonore, Tenn., Brunswick Recreational Boats Tellico,
  * Petit Rechain, Belgium, Mercury Marine Plant 28,
  * Juarez, Mexico, Mercury Plant 22, and
  * Suzhou, People's Republic of China, Mercury Marine Outboards Plant 58.

Petit Rechain is the first distribution facility, rather than a manufacturing
operation, to win the Chairman's Safety Award, while the Mercury Marine facility
in China is the first manufacturing operation outside of North America to
qualify for the honor.  2014 marks the sixth Chairman's Safety Award for the
Palm Coast facility in Flagler Beach, Fla., and its third consecutive award.

Further, 22 Brunswick manufacturing and distribution facilities worldwide were
cited with the Distinguished Safety Award for their safety performance in 2014,
including:
  * Bristol, Wis., Life Fitness (Billiards)

day to ensure the safety of our employees and the communities in which they work
and live.  We congratulate these facilities and their employees on their
