zach bauer the boat does 48mph ish with the 150. 58 with the 200. Will be interesting to see the 150 pro xs on it this year. Boat pick up next weekend so will be able to update then.

@@chrishockleyoutdoors5419 how’s she do with the Merc 150 pro xs? I’ll be getting one of these in the next month or so. Top speed?

@@t.j.fisher5826 It's great. I've run this boat with the 150, 150 pro XS, 200 and 200 pro XS. The 150 pro xs got me going about 45-46mph with an aluminum prop. I never did try the stainless. The hole shot didn't suffer at all. I think that the lower weight and torque made all the difference to compensate. What you lose is top end. The 200 pro XS will get this boat going about 58mph. I didn't find a lot of difference in fuel consumption between the 150 and 200 but the 200 is definitely smoother. The 200 XS is what my next boat has on it and i just love that engine.... nothing like starting it up and hearing that Merc Snort! Hope this helps.

@@chrishockleyoutdoors5419 Thanks for all the insight Chris! We'll be going with the 150 xs and couldn't be more excited. Great set of overview videos!

@@t.j.fisher5826 thank you and man... are you going to be happy! Congrats on the decision and thanks for the compliment!
