Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Significant Accounting Policies	Significant Accounting Policies Interim Financial Statements. Brunswick's unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rules and regulations. Therefore, certain information and disclosures normally included in financial statements and related notes prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with, and have been prepared in conformity with, the accounting principles reflected in the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Brunswick's 2020 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the 2020 Form 10-K). These results include, in management's opinion, all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly Brunswick's financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Due to the seasonality of Brunswick's businesses, the interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the remainder of the year. The Company maintains its financial records on the basis of a fiscal year ending on December 31, with the fiscal quarters spanning approximately thirteen weeks. The first quarter ends on the Saturday closest to the end of the first thirteen-week period. The second and third quarters are thirteen weeks in duration and the fourth quarter is the remainder of the year. The first quarter of fiscal year 2021 ended on April 3, 2021 and the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 ended on March 28, 2020.

Share-Based Compensation	3 Months Ended

Share-based Payment Arrangement, Noncash Expense [Abstract]
Share-Based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation Under the Brunswick Corporation 2014 Stock Incentive Plan, the Company may grant stock appreciation rights (SARs), non-vested stock units, and performance awards to executives, other employees and non-employee directors from treasury shares and from authorized, but unissued, shares of common stock initially available for grant, in addition to: (i) the forfeiture of past stock units and awards; (ii) shares not issued upon the net settlement of SARs; or (iii) shares delivered to or withheld by the Company to pay the withholding taxes related to stock units and awards. As of April 3, 2021, 4.7 million shares remained available for grant. Share grant amounts, fair values, and fair value assumptions reflect all outstanding stock units and awards for both continuing and discontinued operations. Non-Vested Stock Units The Company grants both stock-settled and cash-settled non-vested stock units to key employees as determined by management and the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Company granted 0.2 million of stock units during both the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020. The Company recognizes the cost of non-vested stock units on a straight-line basis over the requisite vesting period. Additionally, cash-settled non-vested stock units are recorded as a liability on the balance sheet and adjusted to fair value each reporting period through stock compensation expense. During the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, the Company charged $2.9 million and $2.0 million, respectively, to compensation expense for non-vested stock units. As of April 3, 2021, there was $23.6 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements. The Company expects this cost to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years. Performance Awards The Company granted 0.2 million and 0.1 million performance shares to certain senior executives for the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, respectively. Performance share awards are based on three performance measures: a cash flow return on investment (CFROI) measure, an operating margin (OM) measure and a total shareholder return (TSR) modifier. Performance shares are earned based on a three-year performance period commencing at the beginning of the calendar year of each grant. The performance shares earned are then subject to a TSR modifier based on the Company's stock returns measured against stock returns of a predefined comparator group over a three-year performance period. Additionally, in February 2021 and 2020, the Company granted 24,560 and 26,750 performance shares, respectively, to certain officers and certain senior managers based on the respective measures and performance periods described above but excluding the TSR modifier. During the three months ended April 3, 2021 and March 28, 2020, the Company recognized a charge of $3.2 million and a benefit of $2.1 million, respectively, to compensation expense based on projections of probable attainment of the performance measures and the projected TSR modifier used to determine the performance awards. The fair values of the senior executives' performance share award grants with a TSR modifier for grants in 2021 and 2020 were $91.44 and $64.72, respectively, which were estimated using the Monte Carlo valuation model, and incorporated the following assumptions: 2021 2020 Risk-free interest rate 0.2 % 1.4 % Dividend yield 1.2 % 1.5 % Volatility factor 65.6 % 46.6 % Expected life of award 2.9 years 2.9 years The fair value of certain officers' and certain senior managers' performance awards granted based solely on the CFROI and OM performance factors was $87.48 and $61.91 in 2021 and 2020, respectively, which was equal to the stock price on the date of grant in 2021 and 2020, respectively, less the present value of expected dividend payments over the vesting period. As of April 3, 2021, the Company had $10.8 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to performance awards. The Company expects this cost to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years. Director Awards The Company issues stock awards to non-employee directors in accordance with the terms and conditions determined by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors. A portion of each director’s annual fee is paid in Brunswick common stock, the receipt of which may be deferred until a director retires from the Board of Directors. Each director may elect to have the remaining portion paid in cash, in Brunswick common stock distributed at the time of the award, or in deferred Brunswick common stock with a 20 percent premium.

If at some future date these earnings cease to be indefinitely reinvested and are repatriated, the Company may be subject to additional U.S. income taxes and foreign withholding taxes on such amounts. The Company continues to provide deferred taxes, as required, on the undistributed net earnings of foreign subsidiaries and unconsolidated affiliates that are not deemed to be indefinitely reinvested in operations outside the United States. As of April 3, 2021, December 31, 2020 and March 28, 2020, the Company had $4.5 million, $4.1 million and $4.3 million of gross unrecognized tax benefits, including interest, respectively. The Company believes it is reasonably possible that the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits as of April 3, 2021 could decrease by approximately $0.5 million in the next 12 months due to settlements with taxing authorities or lapses in the applicable statute of limitations. Due to the various jurisdictions in which the Company files tax returns and the uncertainty regarding the timing of the settlement of tax audits, it is possible that there could be significant changes in the amount of unrecognized tax benefits in 2021, but the amount cannot be estimated at this time. The Company is regularly audited by federal, state and foreign tax authorities. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has completed its field examination and has issued its Revenue Agents Report through the 2014 tax year and all open issues have been resolved. The Company is currently open to tax examinations by the IRS for the 2017 through 2019 tax years. Primarily as a result of filing amended returns, which were generated by the closing of federal income tax audits, the Company is still open to state and local tax audits in major tax jurisdictions dating back to the 2014 taxable year. The Company is no longer subject to income tax examinations by any major foreign tax jurisdiction for years prior to 2013.
