STILLWATER, Oklahoma -- Mercury Marine officials said the company is already moving jobs out of Oklahoma.

In a press release on its website, the company stated MerCruiser assembly operations are already leaving Stillwater and going to the Fon du Lac, Wisconsin factory. The company announced its plans last September to close the Stillwater factory and leave the state.

The company plans to be completely out of Oklahoma by 2011.

Company officials stated the changes are in an attempt to streamline the company and stay afloat.

Mercury Marine stands to get $5 million in incentives from Wisconsin for adding jobs to that state's economy.
