I have all but 2 holes plugged on my Bravo. Also I have a hydraulic plate and have tried it at many different heights. I have read several posts on the Mercury 4s board about the feeling of the prop...

I have a 24 Fury 4 that was on my old motor but can only get 5900 rpms out of it. I have just purchased a 24 Bravo I xs that I like a lot. 6150 rpms and 73 mph is the fastest I have seen so far. The...

I have recently swapped out my 06 225 Pro XS for a new 4s 225 Pro XS on my Cougar FTD. The new 4s is an awesome motor and I love it. Having one small problem with the boat loping or porpoising at low...

I have just repowered my 06 Cougar FTD with a Mercury 225 Pro XS 4 stroke. I have tried a 24 Fury 4 and a 24 Tempest but I could only turn about 5900-5950 rpms. I see they are putting 23p on the new...

Are the bass still biting good down in Venice? Thinking about going next week and have not been in a year.

That was me with the 10.44. We did real good on Wednesday and Thursday with 30-35 fish each day. Only saw one fish on a bed but it will not be long till they come up, water 65-68 deg.

I went by to see him on Tuesday. He is fine, just very busy.

Lowes Creek Marina has a basic room for $55 a night

I have a 25 Tempest Plus that I would rather sell to someone local for $300. It is a 9 out of 10 only because it has been run a couple of times and has a little cup that Brian added to it when I...

Ok Don I will check that and get back to you. Thanks

I have a brown oil slowly seeping out of the front of the lower unit where it meets the mid-section. It starts to seep out about two days after I come back from running...

The Duracell 31 and the Deka 8A31DTM are the same battery. I have both in my boat and they have the same rating, same size and same case, just a different sticker. I have seen it discussed on other...

So if I move it over about an 1" to the other side of the support, it should work fine? It may look a little funny but I guess it will not throw off the balance.

Cajunhunter, where did you drill the holes on your Fury? Two are pretty easy next to the PVS hole but one has a support brace for the barrel next to the third PVS hole. Did you drill the holes...

I will assume that since the holes are small, that just drilling two will not throw off the balance of the prop?

Can someone post a picture of where to put the 5/16" vent holes on a Fury? Two seem to be pretty easy but on the third one there is a support brace for the barrel that is in the way. Thanks.

Thanks Don!

I just removed my compressor water inlet strainer to clean it. There was a lot of stuff on the strainer that I cleaned off. My question is that I can see more grass/trash in the hole so how do I get...

Thanks for everyone's help. I took Don's advice and found a Outboard Premier Service dealer, David Wade Marine.

I have several things that I have read about on this site that I need to get checked but cannot seem to find a certified Mercury tech around this area. Thanks for any help.

Don do you recommend to change the compressor on an 06 225 Pro XS with about 250 hrs. ? I am not having any problems but I see several posts about failing compressors on Pro XS's. Thanks for your...

Victor,
I have been in discussion with Mark about a 4 blade for my 06 Cougar FTD/225 Pro XS. He told me to wait for the Razor XL. I am not sure about your boat and setup but that is what...

Downriver, in the Main pass area.

Thanks Don!

Does a 06 225 Pro XS have a air compressor intake filter? I was doing some maintenance on my motor and have been reading about problems with the air compressors on these motors and wanted to see if...
