Heck Im only running a 130 horse and I run at 6000 rpm all day. Can hit 6100 rpm with only me in boat and never hit the limiter yet. She runs just as stong as she ever did!!!!!!!!!!

I'm disappointed the northern owners tourny was cancelled. My Aunt only lived about a hour from there so I could have lodging for free. I found out to late about this cancellation to schedule a...

My son was fishing with me this past Saturday in his first tourny this year. (He is 10.) He asks me out of no where "So Dad when you going to get a new boat and give this one to me." I was kinda...
Mine says EMPTY at about a 1/4 tank of gas also.
My boat is just an older version of the sx180. Same boat. I have a 6" jackplate and a 130hp yammie. I can just barely break 60 mph (GPS) with everything out of the boat and 1/4 tank gas. Had the...
My buddy has an older Winner bass boat and we are putting in new decks. He has plywood that he can get for free so he wants to use it. What can he treat it with so it holds up to the elements after...
My boat is exactly the same boat that your looking at but a foot shorter. I love the boat. It fishes bigger than it is and handles rough water better than any smaller boat I've ever been in. I've...
I break one every two years. I got two last year when I replaced it so I have an extra plastic one now. Think I'll get the metal one and not have to worry any more. Is there a big price...
Water preasure and rpm are key things in moving your motor up and down. Keep an eye on both and you'll have no wories.
I have a 6" plate, but I'm sure my set up would be differnt than yours
I called my dealer and they where very expensive and it doesn't include install. If I remember right for my boat just the bench covers where around $400
I checked out the back of the tach and everything is/was clean and tight. I'll get her back out again probably Friday.
Thanks for the input guys.
Had the boat out for the first time this year Saturday. In a no wake area the tach would jump about 5 or 600 rpm with no difference in the motor. On plane at 6000 rpm it jumped to 7000 then 8000...
I love this boat and it's even the colors I want. I just can't upgrade now with this economy. The wife and I both have lost all overtime and layoffs have already started here. That price isn't...
I have a "99 SX176. This is the same as the newer SX180's. I love the boat. It fishes a lot bigger than it is. I've had it in Lake Erie numerous times with no trouble. It however is definatly...
I got a sweet deal on a Norris Craft years ago that was 19 and a half feet with a 150 Merc. I could never get more than 53 mph with a jack plate and it was a dog out of the hole. Never again will I...
You might get more reply on http://www.ohiogamefishing.com Not as many Ohio guys here. Probably because that site is huge of a little state like Ohio.
My 9 year old fished his first tournament with me this past Saturday. He lost a good one at the boat, but we had a blast. Everyone keeps asking why the helmet with the nice weather, but I new I...
I contacted my dealer also. Just the skins is $358 for my boat and thats just the bench seat. Install, foam, etc is more. I can get brand new custom to my liking from a local shop (that everyone...
I only have a sx176 (same as an sx180) factory rigged as an option with a 6" jack plate and its perfect.
