Thanks for all the great feedback. After this and questioning some others I will use 7.5 Amp fuses.
Thanks very much for the feedback. I’ll use the 7.5 Amp fuses!
Thanks for the feedback!
I am setting up a new boat and am going all Garmin. I like to install a fuse panel dedicated to electronics. Problem is that Garmin specifies an 8 amp fuse which is not available in blade fuses. Do...
Live Foot by DD26. They make really great products.
I was hoping to avoid multiple fuses. Thanks for the feedback!
Hello,
I am setting up my new boat and I like to do a dedicated fuse panel for all electronics. The Garmin instructions say to use an 8 AMP fuse. The problem is I cannot find 8 amp blade fuses. ...
Just an FYI to all of you thinking of ordering a new AVX 1980. I have a 2020 with a Mercury 150 Pro XS which has a lower gear ratio than the regular Mercury 150 4 stroke. My friend has a 2019 with...
Sorry guys weight is almost exactly the same and I’ve driven his boat.
Well here is the final update. I had the jackplate taken off and it is slightly faster without it. I ran a 24 and 25 fury. The 24 is the fastest will get up to 51-52 with two people in it (just...
It doesn't matter what Vexus or your dealer says. All installation manuals from the different graphs tell you they must be level. That installation is incorrect and I care not what Vexus or any...
I just thought I would update you all. The dealer got a 24 and a 25 fury for me to try. It was interesting to say the least. I got about another 3 mph out of both of them. Now here is the weird...
Thanks for the feedback. Yes the Pro XS has lower gearing which does show the need for a prop with more pitch. Pretty basic stuff after checking into it but frustrating not getting straight answers...
That has been checked. The dealer actually has run the boat also.
I have no argument with that. I started down this road because my boat is slower than my friends who has a regular four stroke. In trying to figure it out I got a whole lot of non-answers. Some...
That does not mean that other items like jackplate, etc. don't affect things but it is simply a fact that with all things being the same the Pro XS will be slower. I did not ask them how much larger...
OK I Called technical support for mercury motors and the technical person told me that if you have the regular four stroke 150
And the pro xs 150 And Send them out on the same hall with the same...
Your math came out pretty much exactly the same as mine...
To me it still looks like when the math is done with the regular 150 four stroke with a higher gear ratio it will spin a prop faster than the Pro XS which means it will go faster all things being the...
I have a G2N Humminbird Helix 12 DI that I would consider selling. Pm me if you are interested
Ok, I did find the paperwork and the serial number of the motor is 2B701466. Dealer is satisfied that it is getting to wide open. In their on the lake test they did they said it goes to 5900 RPM. ...
First of all yes Vexus did select the prop. My boat is at the dealer to get warranty issues addressed including speed so I do not have the serial number available at this time. I believe they are...
Thanks for all the feedback! I did find out that Vexus selects the props. Also according to the prop calculation tool it will take a 25p prop to get things where they should be. I hope it is able to...
Thanks for the input. I spoke to my dealer and they are going to see what props they have. I want to try a 24p and a 25p and see what they do.
I think you are correct. I know the dealer did not choose the prop. I have seen the new boats come in with a prop so it is either Mercury or Vexus. I have not ever tested different props before I...
