I recently replaced my 200 ProV with a newer 225 VMax. I'm trying to sell the ProV and Craigslist, Letgo etc. are proving futile. It's a '99 200 ProV with a Hydrotech Phase 2 kit, Lightweight racing...
Just got off the phone with my insurance agent and being that the boat is over 20' they told me no problem with the 225. Now I wish I would have bought a 250. Haha...
I have a 1999 ZX202C. The max HP rating is 200. In 2000 the ZX202C was rated for a 225. A friend of mine had one and the only difference I could see was the addition of an aluminum knee brace to the...
Good point. My '97 200 is a 2.6 but as you know the later 200's went to the bigger blocks. Did they change any physical characteristics of the shaft that would make one not fit?
I toasted my lower unit and the shop where its at does a lot of conversions to jet pumps. They are going to give me a deal on a newer one when it becomes available. Could even be a brand new one....
Is there any reason why a newer Vmax lower unit would not work on a '97 ProV? I see that the designations refer to the engine (76 degree vs. 90 degree). But I don't see how that would effect the...
I need to get a new lower unit for my 200 ProV. As I have been looking around I see a lot of options and price ranges. There are aftermarket units available for under $800 and rebuilt OEM units for...
My lower unit is fried (pinion gear destroyed) and I'm wondering just how hard it is to rebuild a lower unit yourself. Has anyone done this and what is the difficulty level?
I just put a hydraulic on my zx... I can't believe how sweet it is. Top end? Yes and no. Pound for pound you won't get any faster "EXCEPT" you will be able to adjust for load differences and then...
tried that to.. problem was there was so much weed and goo on the bottom it made it next to impossible to fish anything that would hit bottom. maybe I could have gone with a 3 or 4 foot drop shot rig...
I was fishing a tournament yesterday and went into a private marina that nobody fishes. They don't fish there because security will jump on you the second you enter - but I researched the laws and...
I did the same thing on mine a few years ago. It really was pretty easy. I just removed the forward storage compartment first in order to look under and be sure of what I was cutting and where to...
Don't know that they actually determined that... Here are the pics the first time it went

Not sure... it was broken up.
I have a '97 2.6 ProV with a HT Phase II kit. Last year I blew #5 Piston - I had the motor re-built and that port re-worked to a little over. I went through break in and had about 3 hours of run time...

From what I understand all the strakes are a half inch wider apart underneath as well.
From in the boat it seems pretty dang quiet. Maybe not as much as the hype - but it is quiet. When they would run down the lake - I could sure hear it from standing on the dock though. Actually a...
I'll try to put it this way.. It "feels" like driving a BMW 5 series vs. a 3 series. It's so solid that you think it's a heavier - slower boat - but when you watch the GPS climbing as fast as it does...
I went dow and test drove a new 20FX/250 SHO this morning and here are my initial opinions on the boat...
Visually the boat was outstanding.. Fit, trim, finish and all. The SHO in no way looked...
Our area Skeeter dealer is having an all day demo tomorrow for the new FX... and some other boat (but what is there other than Skeeter). Don't know if I should go or not. Don't trust myself......
Man that fish does look like a giant Largemouth! You should have posted it as a picture someone shot on a lake in the Southern U.S. and said the fish through the hook right at that moment... You'd of...
Yeh. Now that I think about it a little I guess there would be circumstances where everyone could benefit from one... If you were trying to climb in while the wind is howling or if you fell out and...
OK - this might seem like a dumb question... why do people put ladders on bass boats? I have a ZX202 and it sits so low to the water it's pretty easy to grab the side and pull yourself out.
As far as pricing goes... I'm sure Skeeter and Yamaha were well under way in developing this technology before the world admitted we were in financial trouble. Even so... they still have the ZX and...
